The Philadelphia Eagles are now in the middle of a two-game losing streak after losing 24-20 to the Los Angeles Rams. The Eagles led 20-10 at halftime on Sunday afternoon. But the Eagles fell apart in the second half, as the Rams outscored them 14-0 in the fourth quarter.

Eagles fans hoped for a better on-field performance in Week 4 after watching head coach Nick Sirianni’s team play undisciplined football and get outcoached on both sides of the ball on Monday Night Football against the Chicago Bears.

However, it wasn’t meant to be, as the same issues (penalties, third-down conversions, pass protection, inconsistent pass rush) that have plagued this team since the start of the 2026 campaign reappeared on Sunday. Instead of talking about what I saw or giving my thoughts on the frustrating defeat, this week we’ll highlight several troubling stats from this contest.

These stats will tell part of the story from Sunday’s game and shed light on the issues the Eagles must address to avoid a three-game losing streak in Week 5. Without further ado, let’s dive in.

0 for 12: The most glaring stat on Eagles fans’ minds after the four-point loss is 0-for-12 on third down. The Eagles’ offense failed to convert a single third down, which is not a recipe for success. It doesn’t matter what level of football you watch; it’s tough to win when the offense cannot sustain drives and keep the chains moving.

Heading into Sunday’s game, the Eagles’ offense was tied with the Cincinnati Bengals for seventh in third-down conversion percentage (46.34). However, in Week 3, Philly’s third-down conversion percentage was an ugly 22.2 (2-for-9) against the Bears.

Granted, the Eagles entered Sunday’s game without DeVonta Smith, Dallas Goedert, and Lane Johnson. And then lost Saquon Barkley to injury, but that’s no excuse for the offense not to get one first down. The lack of execution falls on the coaches (Sirianni and Sean Mannion) and ultimately the players.

The last time the Eagles failed to convert a third down in a game (regular season or postseason) was in the 2023 Wild Card game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Philadelphia had no answers for Todd Bowles’ defense, as the Bucs held them to 0-for-9 on third downs. The Eagles went on to lose that playoff game, 32-9.

In fact, the entire 2023 season was one to forget, given how it ended. That said, Eagles fans hope history doesn’t repeat itself.

4: This number represents the number of times QB Jalen Hurts was sacked by the Rams on Sunday. Rams defensive coordinator Chris Shula showed no mercy to Hurts and the Eagles’ offense, dialing up multiple blitzes, specifically on third downs, and Philly had no way to counter.

This is now the third game this season the veteran dual-threat quarterback has been sacked at least three times.

Hurts was last sacked four times in a game in Week 8 of the 2025 season against the New York Giants. The Eagles won 38-20, and Hurts completed 15-of-20 passes for 179 yards, four touchdowns, and zero interceptions. He added 22 rushing yards.

The veteran quarterback did not have the same success against the Rams, completing 12-of-27 passes for 93 yards and two touchdowns. He also added 18 rushing yards. Could it have been better? Yes, without a doubt.

However, Philly’s offense wasn’t playing in rhythm, couldn’t establish a consistent ground attack, and the pass protection was subpar. In fact, Hurts’ second-half numbers show the offense as a whole couldn’t make the proper adjustments, which was an issue in Week 3.

According to Jeff Kerr of EaglesOnSI, Hurts was 2-for-9 for 10 yards with a 1.1 YPA in the second half. That’s not sustainable, and the Eagles need to fix it ahead of their matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars, whose defense held the Bengals to 17 points on Sunday.

10: In Sunday’s loss against the Rams, the Eagles were penalized 10 times for 57 yards. This is the last thing fans wanted to see after watching Philadelphia get penalized 10 times for 61 yards in Week 3.

The number of penalties this team is amassing on both sides of the ball is ridiculous. It shows signs of an undisciplined team, and these miscues could end drives or extend them for the other team.

Heading into this weekend’s game, Philly averaged 6.3 penalties per game, which isn’t bad compared to the Cleveland Browns (10.8) and Green Bay Packers (10.7).

The Eagles also ranked seventh in penalty yards per game (45.3), which isn’t terrible compared to the Packers (92.0) and Arizona Cardinals (81.7). That said, when a team like the Eagles struggles to score in the first quarter, convert on third down, or generate consistent pressure, you can’t afford these miscues.

Therefore, Sirianni needs to step up and coach these guys up because these bad habits will linger and get worse over the course of the season.
