Jalen Hurts and the run game force defenses to account for the quarterback and the back on the same snap. The defense can collapse the pocket through Jalen Carter and the defensive front without living on the blitz. The passing game still needs more chunk plays while Philadelphia works through coordinator and receiver changes.
See how the PFM category ratings shape Philadelphia.
The Eagles can win through either side of the ball. On offense, Philadelphia uses a power-run and RPO plan. On defense, the team uses a front-driven scheme, with Jalen Carter as the main anchor.
Explosive plays will be an area to watch without AJ Brown. More chunk plays would change the direction of this offense.
Hurts, Saquon Barkley and the line make the 9th-ranked quarterback setup part of the run game as well as the passing game. The Eagles lose some of that edge when the run is bottled up and Hurts has to live in pure dropback situations.
Philadelphia ranks 18th in explosive-play ability. Without more chunk plays, too many drives depend on staying perfect for ten or twelve snaps.
Philadelphia is one of the few teams with both the offense and defense in the strength range. A power-run and RPO offense can build a lead, while a front-driven defense can protect it.
The Eagles win by controlling the line of scrimmage, forcing the defense to account for Hurts in the run game and letting the pass rush close. Philadelphia's offensive line has to stay involved.
The Eagles are most exposed in games where the run is bottled up and Hurts has to win from repeated pure dropback situations. Those games put a spotlight on maintaining passing-game consistency through coordinator and receiver changes.
Philadelphia ranks No. 20 in schedule difficulty, with an average opponent PFM Score of 79.5 and 4 games against current top-10 teams. The toughest three-game run comes in Weeks 15, 16, 17 against Seattle Seahawks, Houston Texans and San Francisco 49ers; the next 5 opponents average 81.3.
Toughest remaining opponent: 
Seattle Seahawks at 91.3 PFM.
These are the two closest on-field builds in the PFM ratings. The similarities matter, but so do the differences.
The 49ers are the closest match because both teams put the quarterback at the center of the week-to-week answer. The Eagles lean on a power-run and RPO offense, while the 49ers lean on a wide-zone and play-action offense. The Eagles can lean more heavily on the defense.
The Broncos are another close match because both teams trust the defense to keep the game under control. The Eagles get there through a power-run and RPO offense; the Broncos are built around a pressure-and-coverage defense. The Eagles have the deeper roster.
We wouldn't say there is a ton of pressure yet on Jalen Hurts but the Philadelphia offense must take a step forward for it to stay that way. The Eagles took a hit to their explosive rating after dealing star receiver AJ Brown. They must find a way to stay vertical in the passing game next season.
Philadelphia enters as the team to catch in the NFC East. A power-run and RPO plan gives the team its clearest edge. Dallas and Washington have quarterback talent, but neither matches Philadelphia’s depth.
Philadelphia is 2–3 in the Super Bowl and last won in Super Bowl LIX in 2025.
