by Jimmy Kempski

we've seen through four games this season, the Eagles' offense has been woeful, in so many different ways. One area where they've been particularly bad has been on third down. On the season, the Eagles are converting third downs at a 26.5% clip, which is next to last in the NFL, only behind Andy Reid's Chiefs.
