3 Takeaways from Eagles' Week 17 Loss vs. Cardinals | News, Scores, Highlights, Stats, and Rumors

Julio Jones' surprising two-score game was really the only positive the Eagles could take from Sunday.

Jones hauled in a 12-yard pass for the game's first touchdown and scored again on a 22-yard pass play at the end of the first half.

Jones did not do much inside the Eagles offense since his signing, but Sunday provided a peek into how effective he could be in the right spot.

The veteran wide out is not going to be a high-volume pass-catcher, but if he can provide red-zone value, it will at least alleviate some pressure on Hurts in scoring situations.

If the Eagles build on Jones' success, they could have four pass-catching options and two rushing threats in scoring situations, which is one quality that makes them one of the more dangerous teams in the NFC postseason.
