Eagles defense still looking for first turnover after two weeks
Summary

The Philadelphia Eagles remain undefeated at 2-0 but have not generated any turnovers through the first two weeks of the season. Their victories have been close calls against the Washington Commanders and Tennessee Titans. ESPN's Tim McManus suggests the lack of takeaways is a temporary issue, attributing it to a 'mirage' and anticipating that turnovers will start to occur, especially with an upcoming matchup against the Chicago Bears, who may struggle without key quarterbacks. As they enter Week 3, questions about the Eagles' defensive performance, particularly in tackling and pass rush, persist.
