Frustration continues to mount in Philadelphia following the Eagles’ 34–17 loss to the New York Giants, and veteran offensive tackle Lane Johnson has joined the growing list of players speaking out about the team’s struggles.

Johnson didn’t hold back when discussing the offensive approach, urging for more creativity and unpredictability in play-calling.

“It seems a lot harder than it needs to be,” Johnson said. “Maybe moving forward, just have a little bit more variety, hit the perimeter some more… [We] need to be able to keep defenses guessing.”

While Johnson made it clear he wasn’t placing blame directly on offensive coordinator Kevin Patullo, his comments reflected a shared frustration across the locker room.

“I’m with Kevin until the end. A lot of it comes down to execution,” he explained. “We’ll go back and fix what we’ve got to fix, but moving forward, we have to be more efficient, less predictable, and capitalize on big plays.”

Running back Saquon Barkley also echoed the sentiment, emphasizing that the issue may go deeper than just play design.

“We have to get back into that mindset — not really caring what people are trying to do,” Barkley said. “That’s something I’m looking for.”

Last season, the Eagles ranked second in the NFL with 184.1 rushing yards per game. This year, that number has plummeted to 95.3 yards per game, one of the lowest in the league.

Johnson’s remarks came just days after reports surfaced about a private meeting between Barkley, Jalen Hurts, and A.J. Brown to discuss the offense — a meeting Brown later denied ever took place.

Still, as the Eagles prepare for Week 7, it’s clear that something needs to change. With two straight losses and mounting pressure on Patullo’s offense, Johnson’s message might be exactly what the team needs to hear: it’s time to stop being predictable.
