Eagles explore empty formations to improve offensive response to pressure

On October 18, the Philadelphia Eagles faced significant offensive pressure during their game at Lincoln Financial Field against the Carolina Panthers. Analysts suggest the team, led by Jalen Hurts and Tanner McKee, should utilize more empty formations to enhance effectiveness against defensive blitzes. Current statistics reveal the Eagles struggle significantly under pressure, with zero successful under center play action plays when blitzed. The team's use of empty formations has shown some promise, though more data is needed to determine its full impact. Analysts continue to stress the importance of adjusting formations to better protect the quarterback and improve offensive production.
