While the Philadelphia Eagles defeated the Carolina Panthers on Sunday to improve to 11-2, all is not well in the city of Brotherly Love.
There is plenty of talk about the relationship between wide receiver A.J. Browns and quarterback Jalen Hurts after Brown only had four catches on Sunday and then made some comments about the Eagles’ passing game and Hurts’ supposed lack of communication during games.
There are whispers that perhaps Philly is about to implode like they did last season when they lost five of their last six games after starting 10-1.
Brown recently changed his Instagram profile picture to one of the Joker from the Batman franchise.

Overall, Brown is having another very strong season, and he has caught 48 passes for 836 yards and four touchdowns through 10 games.
He ranks fourth in yards per reception with 17.4, which is the second-highest mark of his career in that category — he had 20.2 yards per catch as a rookie during the 2019 season.
After last year’s late collapse, the Eagles have been seemingly reborn this season, largely thanks to a special season from running back Saquon Barkley and a revitalized defense that ranks second in points allowed and first in total yards allowed.
Barkley, who was signed away from the New York Giants this past offseason, has run for 1,623 yards, and with four games left in the regular season, and he appears to have a shot at breaking Eric Dickerson’s record for most rushing yards in a single season, which was set in 1984.
