The Philadelphia Eagles are 5-4 after winning their second game in a row this past Sunday. Despite beating the Chicago Bears, however, Eagles fan confidence actually dropped from 54% to 46%. Here’s what that looks like:

The DeSean Jackson injury has clearly put a damper on the Eagles’ outlook. It’s hard to feel amazing about this team moving forward given their incredibly uninspiring wide receiver situation, among other issues.

Washington saw an increase this week! They went up to 1% after being at 0% last week. Washington has been in the single digits since Week 4.
