Sean Mannion addresses Eagles' play-action struggles amid run game success

Sean Mannion acknowledged the need for better play-action execution after the Philadelphia Eagles' 27-7 loss to the Chicago Bears. Despite a strong rushing performance from Saquon Barkley, who tallied 73 yards in the first half, the Eagles failed to capitalize on this success. Mannion noted that early rushing success should create opportunities for Jalen Hurts, but the team's inability to maintain balance hindered offensive effectiveness. As they prepare for a matchup with the Los Angeles Rams, Mannion emphasized the importance of adjusting the game plan to build on the run game and provide Hurts with protection against a tough defense.
