The Philadelphia Eagles' struggles extend far beyond Jalen Hurts, with systemic offensive issues plaguing the team. The unit is still adjusting to first-year coordinator Sean Mannion’s playbook while dealing with significant personnel losses, including six-time Pro Bowl right tackle Lane Johnson’s retirement and Pro Bowl left guard Landon Dickerson’s season-ending injury.
The offensive line has been further disrupted by the trade of center/guard Cam Jurgens, and the skill-position group is thin, with top receiver DeVonta Smith sidelined by a hamstring injury and the top three running backs missing. While Hurts has faced challenges, the broader dysfunction—from scheme adaptation to personnel shortages—remains the core issue for an offense that relies heavily on its rushing attack.
Meanwhile, the Green Bay Packers have re-emerged as NFC contenders after two straight wins, including a dominant 35-17 victory over the Bears in Week 5. Quarterback Jordan Love led with a career-high 258 yards through the air, aided by deep-ball accuracy, as he and receivers Christian Watson and Matthew Golden combined for 871 receiving yards—both leading their team in receptions.
The Packers’ defense also made an impact, forcing five turnovers against Chicago, the most since 2016, though injuries to edge rusher Micah Parsons (status uncertain) and linebacker Edgerrin Cooper (season-ending Achilles) loom as major concerns. Love’s pass protection has improved, with just three sacks over his last three games, but the run game remains a work in progress as Green Bay eyes a playoff push with Parsons’ return on the horizon.
