If you only eat one bagel today, this is the bagel.
Summary
The article discusses the Philadelphia Eagles' offensive scheme under new offensive coordinator Sean Mannion, focusing on the shift from their heavy shotgun usage under Jalen Hurts and Nick Sirianni to more under-center formations. It provides context that while conventional wisdom suggests the Eagles struggle with shotgun formations, they actually ran the ball from under center more than commonly perceived. The piece examines the adjustment required for the quarterback and offense as they adapt to Mannion's preferences.
