The Philadelphia Eagles defense have struggled in the past two weeks.
The NFC team gave up 42 points to the San Francisco 49ers in Week 13 and then on Sunday Night Football, gave up 33 points to the Dallas Cowboys, both losses to two of the best teams in the conference.
With that, defensive coordinator Sean Desai, who received the position after Jonathan Gannon took the Arizona Cardinals head coach job, has gotten heat from Eagles fans.
One day after the loss, one Eagles fan held a sign, calling for Desai to be fired.

The Eagles defense certainly isn’t the same. It ranked second in the NFL in fewest yards allowed last year, only behind the San Francisco 49ers. This year through 13 games it ranks 21st.
The Eagles (10-3) still can win the conference and division but certainly need to pick things up defensively.
