Can confirm @jglazer.bsky.social's report that Jaire Alexander informed the #Eagles he is stepping away from football, per a league source.
The Eagles traded for Alexander on Nov. 1, but the CB was inactive for Monday’s game in part because of a knee injury he’s been dealing with all season.

From Next Gen Stats: Quinyon Mitchell is allowing 49% completion percentage against and ranks second behind only Patrick Surtain in the NFL in average separation when targeted this season.

Great job from Jalen Carter here on this opening drive run stop
But also look at Moro Ojomo recognizing what the blocking scheme is going to be and making sure Jihaad Campbell (playing OLB in the #Eagles base defense) does not impact his ability to take on and dominate a TE 1v1

Can the #Eagles reinforced defense reach the heights of last season? It certainly looked like it last night vs. the Packers.

One game after posting their best offensive EPA/drive (+2.84) since Super Bowl LII, the #Eagles posted their worst offensive EPA/drive (-0.71) since the 2023 Wild Card loss in Tampa.
But the defense's best game of the year was enough to win it anyway.

Very important point here. It hasn't been pretty at times this season but they've got quality wins against the three NFC contenders they've faced.
Great win. Eagles have beaten the Rams, the Bucs, and the Packers. They are going to have the tie breaker over everybody.

Instant reaction to the #Eagles win over the Packers is live now.
An excerpt from mine: The Eagles can even find ways to make a road win against a playoff contender feel … strange.

I'm certainly not.
Are the Eagles ok?

I have no idea what I'm watching at this point, guys.

What a sequence from the #Eagles.
Burn a timeout. Two incomplete passes before the two-minute warning. Then they can't even get out of the huddle quickly enough to do the "draw them offsides" gimmick on fourth-and-8 from the 48-yard line.
Packers ball with 2:18 left down 3.

Man, DeVonta Smith has no business being as good as he is in those contested catch situations.

Mitchell and DeJean being targeted a combined nine times to Jackson’s 2 seems suboptimal idk

Quinyon Mitchell sticking with that crosser and breaking up that pass was not only absurd, it could also be one of the biggest plays of the game the way things are going here. #Eagles

Does the dump off to Shipley on third-and-15 count as a fourth?
A.J. Brown hasn't had a target since the 3:12 mark in the first quarter, by the way.

That is, by my tally, three give-up runs for Will Shipley on third down in the #Eagles' first six drives.
Confoundingly conservative play-calling so far tonight.

That might be the best thing that's happened to Jaelan Phillips in his life, probably.

Jimmy is sitting next to the seat I was supposed to have at Lambeau so if you really think about it, I should get credit for him finally realizing that Moro Ojomo was poised for a big year.
Moro Ojomo has been better this season than Milton Williams was last season.

That's a 16-play drive from the #Eagles without anything to show for it.
Ironic an uncharacteristic Jalen Hurts turnover comes on an possibly even-more uncharacteristic designed QB run.
