The Philadelphia Eagles suffered a pretty big loss to the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday night. That's the bad. The good? Offensive lineman Jason Kelce is happy — relatively speaking, of course — with the way the Eagles lost.
“It’s definitely better when it’s a self-inflicted thing that you can correct,” veteran center Jason Kelce said, via Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia. “It’s not like, in my opinion, still have to go watch the tape, but it wasn’t like we were by far the worst team out there. I think we were the more undisciplined team today. And that ended up culminating in putting us in a situation where we couldn’t win the game.
“I think that it’s encouraging that as long as we get that fixed, we can beat a team like this and we should beat a team like this. It’s encouraging, but at the end of the day, it’s still frustrating.”
In context, what he says does make sense. It isn't like Jason Kelce is actually happy Philly lost. Instead, he finds it encouraging that the Eagles lost because of things that were outside of the category of overall talent.
Philadelphia quarterback Carson Wentz, who had some major issues on Sunday night, isn't too concerned after the defeat.
“We’ll be fine,” Wentz said. “The guys in this locker room, we’re all mature, we’ll all respond just fine. We’re all frustrated about this one, but we’re not too worried. I think we’ll be just fine.”
To be honest, this all sounds fair.
