Jaws: Jaguars 'kind of knew' what the Eagles were doing offensively

Ron Jaworski had some interesting things to say about Nick Foles‘ struggles in the opener against the Jaguars.

Like most of us, he saw a quarterback on Sunday that didn’t seem to be processing information quickly and who was holding onto the ball too long.

But Jaws believes there was more to the story; that part of the problem was that Jacksonville had a bead on what the Eagles were doing on offense.

“I felt that one of the great traits last year of Chip Kelly was getting Number One open. In other words, when you call a play, you design to get the ball to Zach Ertz and he pops open. If you’re designing a play to get the ball to Jeremy Maclin, he pops open. And he was really, really good at that," Jaworski said during an appearance on 97.5 The Fanatic. "I thought for the most part [on Sunday], especially in the first half, Jacksonville kind of knew what they were doing. They were taking away where Nick wanted to go with the football. And he wasn’t getting the ball out of his hand quick enough when Number One wasn’t open. That was the big difference in Week 1 to me.”

Foles had a rough first half, but bounced back in the second, completing 15 of 21 passes for 183 yards and two TDs in the comeback victory.
