The Eagles offense is offensive

In a stunning turn of events, Chip Kelly managed to set the game of football back 50 years.

The Philadelphia Eagles have had one of the most prolific offenses in the league this season, but that production was nowhere to be found in Sunday's game against the Dallas Cowboys.

If you need a good idea of how bad the Eagles’ offense has been, here’s a helpful graphic.

The offense has had four drives of three yards or less. They're also doing this against the Cowboys, who are without pass rusher DeMarcus Ware.

To add injury to insult, the Eagles are having problems staying healthy. Wide receiver DeSean Jackson briefly left with an ankle injury, but came back into the game. Their biggest loss came shortly afterwards, when quarterback Nick Foles went into the locker room with an undisclosed issue. Since Michael Vick is already out, the Eagles have turned to rookie Matt Barkley, who is making his first appearance of the season.

Philadelphia finally got a field goal in the fourth quarter, ensuring that Chip Kelly still won’t be shut out in his entire coaching career, but the Eagles are heading for another loss if they can’t find a pulse on offense.
