Sunday's win over the Panthers left former Eagles players impressed by Saquon Barkley's record-breaking performance, but concerned about the team's passing offense behind Jalen Hurts.

As the Birds continue their hot streak — winning nine straight games after an early bye week — they are headed to the playoffs for the fourth consecutive season.
“They didn’t run Saquon Barkley enough in the first half, in my opinion. The last run defense in the National Football League and you only run your top running back nine times in the first half? Jalen was very indecisive in this game throwing the football. I thought that hurt them early.” Do the Eagles have a passing problem? A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith voice their frustration despite Eagles win.
