Jalen Hurts didn’t need any help.

The Philadelphia Eagles clinched the NFC East over the weekend, but it wasn’t without frustrations. It appears Jalen Hurts had to shield his offensive line from Saquon Barkley at one point.

Philly, the defending Super Bowl champions, became the first team to win said division back-to-back in 21 years. They will go into the playoffs with the guarantee of a home game.

A 29-18 win over the Washington Commanders saw to that.

The Commies were probably not happy about a late two-point conversion that the Eagles didn’t seem to need. And tempers flared almost immediately, with a massive brawl breaking out near the end zone.

Three players were thrown out of the game after punches flew.

The Eagles were not exactly happy with each other either.

Cameras caught Hurts having a talk with his O-line, and let’s just say he wasn’t displaying the same calm demeanor from his press conferences. Barkley walked over and was getting his two cents in, but Hurts wouldn’t allow it.

The quarterback, who made some unwanted history in a recent loss, stopped his running back teammate in his tracks and turned him away.

To be fair to Barkley, the offensive line has been leaving him for dead all season. He had a good performance against Washington on Sunday, but this season has been nothing like his last.

Philly’s O-line has been a shadow of itself, especially with Lane Johnson out.

After moving on from Jason Kelce with ease and rolling all the way up to a Lombardi, the line has left plenty to be desired.
