PHILADELPHIA – The Eagles have shown the offense many were waiting for over the last three games.

In those three games, all of which were wins, the Eagles averaged 28.3 points per game and 182 rushing yards. Quarterback Jalen Hurts has completed 71.2% of his passes, for a passer rating of 127.4. He has 9 total touchdowns and zero turnovers.

As the Eagles begin their game on Sunday, right tackle Lane Johnson revealed that he and fellow offensive linemen Jordan Mailata and Landon Dickerson went to head coach Nick Sirianni during the Eagles' bye week and begged him to pass the ball more to let it run.

Johnson, who is in his 12th season, said he appreciates Sirianni's openness and willingness to listen to his players.

“It's about performance. It’s about having a great offense,” Johnson said. “It's not about saying, 'Hey, you're wrong here.' We're all in this together, so when we win, everyone wins and everyone loses when we lose. For us it's about getting the offense going and doing our best.

“Nick has always been a great communicator. Whenever something went wrong, we communicated well. We all want to win games.”

Hurts said “everyone has a voice” in what’s going on. Sirianni, meanwhile, said a good coach's job is to listen to his players.

“We go through our processes together,” Sirianni said. “I won't say this percentage or that percentage (for player input) or anything like that, but as a coach you try to evaluate what your players are doing well. You do this based on practice. You do that based on the games and what you're successful at and what you're not successful at.

“You also do that by talking to the players.”
