Wow, a coach finally wins a Superbowl for philly and within a year gets this kind of garbage?

It's not the coaches fault. The players were too busy reading their press clippings and don't have the edge this year. It's very common except with the Patriots for teams to have a hangover.

You watch all the Eagles games?

The usual pattern with Doug Pederson is that at his regular Monday press conference he’s asked why he didn’t run the ball more the day before.

And then he says, yeah, he should have.

This week was different.

Pederson didn’t wait to be asked why impressive rookie Josh Adams didn’t get more work.

He brought it up himself.

“Do I think he can have a few more touches? I do,” he said. “So that’ll answer everybody’s question right there. I do feel like he can touch the ball a few more times.”

That clears that up.

Adams was 9-for-61 in London against the Jaguars and followed that with a 7-for-47 performance Sunday in the loss to the Cowboys.

Overall, the rookie from Warrington and Notre Dame is averaging 5.7 yards on 27 carries.

“For the limited amount of touches, I thought Josh played well, and he’s improved each week,” Pederson said.

Let’s take a quick look at Adams’ performance so far:

• Even though he has far fewer carries than Wendell Smallwood (62 carries, 4.2 average), Corey Clement (55 carries 3.3 average) and injured Jay Ajayi (45 carries, 4.1 average), Adams leads the Eagles with four runs of 15 yards or more.

• Adams’ 5.7 average is sixth-highest in the NFL among backs with at least 25 carries.

• Even though he’s accounted for only 12 percent of the Eagles’ carries, he has four of the Eagles’ seven-longest runs this year.

• Over the past month, he’s averaging 6.3 yards per carry, second-highest in the NFL during that span behind only Aaron Jones of the Packers (7.5 average).

Clement, the Super Bowl hero last year, has battled a quad injury recently and is averaging just 3.3 yards per carry so far. Smallwood has come back to Earth a bit and is averaging 3.0 yards per carry in his last four games after sitting at 6.0 through five games.

The Eagles don’t run very much. But when they do, Adams has been by far their most productive back.

“I think Corey played with a little more sense of urgency (Sunday),” Pederson said Monday. “I think he’s feeling fresher coming off the break and his body’s feeling healthy. Wendell’s been steady, he’s been consistent there.”

And Adams?

“I think Josh has been the spark the last couple weeks,” he said. “We’ll continue to give him a few more opportunities.”

The Eagles’ 16 carries Sunday were their fewest since a game against the 49ers in 2014 when they ran just 12 times in a 26-21 loss.

They haven’t had a back with 20 carries since Ryan Mathews in 2016, and they haven’t had a RB with back-to-back games with double-digit carries since LeGarrette Blount against the Cowboys and Bears last November.

It sure seems like the Eagles have a weapon in Adams. To what extent Pederson uses him remains to be seen.

While the defense hasn't been up to expectations schwartz doesn't have a lot to work with either. Last year he could roll 8. This year he can roll 4. And by the 4th quarter they're worn out. That's why they give up so much on the 4th. The lb's have been mediocre. Bradham had a career year last year. Hicks has been pretty average. The secondary, well we all know what has happened there. They need more depth, especially up front.
Wouldn't be surprised to see NO hang 50 on us.
Play calling has definitely been lacking on offense. Reich, who many slaughtered when he came in, turns out to have been a difference maker. Groh and the other guy don't seem to have added much. So yes they need to add another face to the group.
And they obviously need help up front. And a legitimate RB.
I'd love to know where the Aussie kid is at. Certainly looked promising preseason but.... Maybe we'll see him at the end of the year.

all things considered it's a disappointment but one i can live with this year.

it took a miracle on top of a miracle to pull off the superbowl. unless pederson gets bailed out by an offensive mind again, this type of year is going to repeatedly happen until he gets fired.

anyone who seriously believes he played any kind of legit role in leading the eagles to a championship probably believes brad johnson was an elite quarterback for winning one.

The problem with this post is that you appear to be ignorant about what happens in football. Doug Pederson played a major role in the Eagles winning the Superbowl to suggest otherwise is just stupid. He did not do it all by himself and most coaches can't the need support and a good staff.

Miracle on top of miracle to win the Superbowl? Do you think the Eagles are the only team to have a lucky play come at the right time in the biggest game of them all? Half of Brady's SB wins came off of luck. Eli does not win if a football does not miraculously stick itself on a helmet. Back in the 70's the Cowboys would have beaten the Steelers if a TE does not drop a TD pass from Staubach that hits him in the bread basket. The Bills lose a SB on an easy field goal that goes wide right. I could go on...... Sometimes it better to be lucky than good. Stop trying to find a reason to take credit from anyone and be happy as an Eagles fan that we finally won a SB and STFU about all the stupid bullshit because you don't like Pederson.

This is a ludicrous statement. We won the Superbowl! Do you know how hard that is even for the most dominant of teams? Doug has not been good this year, acknowledged. But injuries have KILLED us this year, especially on the offensive side of the ball. Right from the start of training camp we have not played with a full deck. You have so much vitriol for Pederson, but SCHWARTZ is the one who has literally cost us games this year with his failure to have the defense put games away. Why do you not have the same issue with him?

If you feel this strongly about Doug failing the team this year, then he in turn deserves credit for the run we had last year, fluke or not. Be a little grateful we got one after all the suffering we've endured as Eagle fans over the years.

It is a disaster year. Missing Reich and Defilippo; Blount; Jernigan; Ajayi; Maragos; Sproles; Hollins; Wallace (not as good as Smith), and now Barnett; Darby; and McLeod. Groh is just not ready to be an OC. We don't have the depth we had last year. All these are factors, just not solely Doug.

My biggest complaint about Doug is that he has gone too pass happy. However, I have to wonder of this is because of the personnel he has left on offense. Doug has shown that he is able to adjust his play calling to what is laid out in front of him and he has adjust every single game. The defense has collapsed but the offense has always had us in a spot to at least have a shot.

Good points. Don't forget that he is Andy junior. But, even Big Red is learning to run the ball. We definitely need a bell-cow next year.

Doug has never had an issue running the ball consistently, in particular when he has personnel he is comfortable with... and I don't believe he has full confidence in what he has right now, that's why the balance is off.

It may be a devalued position, but RB has to be a high priority this off-season, whether it be the draft, FA, or trade, or a combination of all. I think Rey mention it earlier, and he's right - skill positions across the board need to be addressed and upgraded moving forward.

ignorant? ludicrous? laughable.

the problem i have is the same one as always. i'm not a monday morning quarterback. minus occasional game day threads, i don't discuss sports to state the obvious bullshit that most fans love to do. any drunk can watch a game in real time and point out 'current' positives and negatives. i prefer to analyze the past and present to delve into the future.

and with each passing game, each press conference, each quote.. it's easy to see pederson was NOT the reason why we became a balanced team in week 3 and to the bowl of last season. he was being hounded by the media, fans and people in the biz to the point where many questioned how he even got a head coaching gig to begin with.

it's very possible his job was on the line and he took all the help he could get. someone was in his ear to run the ball. and with pederson fully resorting back to his original self, one can easily see that person being reich. i don't dislike pederson. i'm sure he's a 'swell' guy. but he's a mediocre coach. and even though i hate to drop insults.. anyone who thinks he is a great coach simply because the eagles won the superbowl is an idiot when it comes to sports.

nick foles, who most fans couldn't give a shit about until the minnesota game, played out of his mind at the end. they got the best scenario possible with home field against the falcons and vikings. if the falcons weren't such chokers and had better play calling themselves, they would have finished off the eagles at the end and kept them from even getting one win.

the pats benched a player, who couldn't have played worse than what they threw out there. the one pass slipped off brady's fingertips and cost them points. the clement TD probably should have been overturned. gostkowski dinged a 26 yarder off the upright. the horrible decision to run the 'philly special' worked. foles converted a late 4th and 1. and of course.. the only way they were going to stop brady, the fumble.

it was a miracle season winning a superbowl with a mediocre coach, weak secondary, backup quarterback and numerous breaks along the postseason way. that's why we're 4-5 right now. you swap out pederson with someone like belichick.. we'd be at least 7-2, GUARANTEED.

side note: as for pederson not having confidence in the running game or the backs.. that's nothing but pure bullshit. none of these players has given him a reason to back away and avoid it like the plague.

No disrespect dude, but you are the most ungrateful fan I've ever seen post here. You're too busy trying to predict and "delve into the future" that you forgot this past February WE WON THE FUCKING SUPERBOWL!!! Even if you are convinced that we won with a "mediocre" team last year, shouldn't that make the victory that much sweeter? The fact that we ran up and down the field on the best coach and best QB in NFL history on the biggest stage in the SB with our backup quarterback, not intimidated at all, and they still couldn't stop us?!? To me that was friggin' awesome.

You make it sound that you had wished the Clement TD was overturned, that Brady fumbled the ball on his own, instead of acknowledging that a our defense made a spectacular play on the biggest stage with the game on the line to win. Have you watched any games this year? Kickers all over the league are missing chip shots left, right and center. The "horrible decision" to run the Philly Special when half the teams in the league are copying the very same play to try to win games this year around the league... that we had an answer for every move the best coach in the NFL could make in that game, and still couldn't beat us - c'mon, man!

It's OK to be furious and pissed as hell for what's happening to our team right now, the Eagles have given us plenty of reasons to feel that way this year. But to be so negative and trying to prove everyone wrong by "delving into in the future" doesn't make you special in any kind of way.

side note: Just because I said Pederson does not have confidence in the backs doesn't mean I don't disagree with you that Pederson should be attempting to run more with what he has. But it is my opinion based on what I've seen from him as coach of this team since he took over that he does not have faith in the guys he has, and he is dialing up more pass plays because he thinks Wentz can make a play more than the RBs can right now... If that's the case, do I agree with that? No, absolutely not - he needs to run more, bottom line.
