Jason Kelce criticized his Eagles team as 'not good enough right now' after Philly was thrashed 42-19 by the 49ers.

While the Eagles still lead the NFC with a 10-2 record, Sunday's game against San Francisco was the fourth straight game in which the team was losing at halftime.

And while the Eagles were able to erase deficits against the Cowboys, Chiefs and Bills, they couldn't do the same against the 49ers.


'We're not good enough right now,' Kelce told reporters after the loss. 'Obviously, disappointed in the way we performed, didn't get it done today. But we've still got some games left, a lot of football to learn from.

'I still have the utmost confidence in everybody in this locker room on both sides of the ball. This game doesn't do anything to sway that.'

The Eagles kicked two field goals in the first quarter to take a 6-0 lead, and only trailed by one possession at halftime after a Christian McCaffrey touchdown made it a 14-6 game.

Deebo Samuel tallied three second half touchdowns as his team ran away with the game

Eagles coach Nick Sirianni said the 49ers were a 'really good football team' after the loss

But Deebo Samuel scored a hattrick of second-half touchdowns as the visitors' lead ballooned to 23 by the end. 

'We didn't coach good enough, didn't play good enough. Simple as that,' Eagles coach Nick Sirianni said.

'And why do you not do that? Well, you have to give credit to them too. That's a really good football team. If you don't come out and play your best game against the guys that they have and the coaches that they have, it's going to look like that. So, we have to coach better. Have to play better. We have a lot to clean up.'

While Kelce played in the game, his brother Travis' ex-girlfriend Kayla Nicole watched from the stands.

She sat in a suite at Lincoln Financial Field with Claire Kittle, who's married to tight end George Kittle, and Kristin Juszczyk, the wife of fullback Kyle Juszczyk.

Travis, meanwhile, was cheered on by girlfriend Taylor Swift as his team lost to the Packers.
