Daily News | What we learned from Eagles-Steelers: Nick Sirianni and Jalen Hurts are preparing for bigger stages
more involved. The tight end had only three third-down catches through the first six games, but he caught that many — for 30 yards — on Sunday. Goedert finished with six grabs on as many targets — one he pulled with one hand — for 64 yards. Five came in the first half and when the Eagles came out of the break, they faked a screen to him underneath that drew multiple defenders. Slot receiverwas open over the top as a result and caught a 34-yard touchdown pass to expand the lead to 18 points.
It would be nice to see how the Eagles would fare against the best of the NFL — the Bills and Chiefs among them. But they’ve already beaten the NFC’s top teams: the 6-1 Vikings and the 6-2 Cowboys. Hurts and company have answered the bell each week and it may just be time to accept their superiority. The quarterback’s progress has been remarkable. Has he profited from the effectiveness of the scheme and the strength of the personnel? Absolutely.
But can the unit compensate for the offense when it isn’t clicking? Gannon’s defense has essentially gotten the job done and had maybe its best outing against the best quarterback it faced:several weeks later. But thes of the position aren’t exactly playoff-worthy measuring sticks. The Eagles sacked Pickett six times on Sunday. Stopping the run early helped, but the offensive explosion forced the Steelers into becoming one-dimensional. That’s how the Eagles want to draw it up.
