Eagles address multiple improvement areas ahead of Titans matchup
Summary

The Philadelphia Eagles prepare for a Week 2 road game against the Tennessee Titans following a narrow 24-22 win over the Washington Commanders. Despite the victory, the Eagles identified several areas needing improvement, particularly in offensive line performance and drive consistency. The offensive line struggled in both run and pass blocking, prompting discussions about communication issues. Quarterback Jalen Hurts had standout moments, throwing three touchdown passes, but the offense faced difficulties with frequent three-and-outs. The Eagles also seek to enhance their pass rush against Titans quarterback Cam Ward, who displayed vulnerability in their opener. Improvement in these areas is crucial as they aim to maintain momentum.
