COSTA MESA Wholesale Josh Sitton Jersey , Calif. (AP) Doug Pederson thinks the Philadelphia Eagles could derive some long-term benefits from the short-term pain of their humbling loss in Seattle.
The head coach is also hoping that a week in sunny Southern California will allow the Eagles to regain their winning edge before they face another playoff contender.
The Eagles (10-2) flew down the West Coast after their nine-game winning streak ended with Sunday nights 24-10 loss to the Seahawks. Theyll spend the next week away from home before their showdown with the Los Angeles Rams (9-3) in a meeting of NFC division leaders.

Its hard when youve got back-to-back West Coast trips like this, to be able to fly back home and then practice and come back out this way at the end of the week, Pederson said Monday. Weve never really done this before, obviously. But itll definitely pay off for us, hopefully in the near future.
Philadelphia is setting up camp in Orange County, with the team headquartered at a hotel in Costa Mesa thats only two miles from the Los Angeles Chargers new training complex. The Eagles will practice on a full-size football field set up several miles away at Angel Stadium in Anaheim.
And no, die-hard Eagles fan Mike Trout didnt make these arrangements.
Instead Authentic Nick Nelson Jersey , the Eagles chose to stay out West to avoid those cross-country round trip flights, but also to keep the players focus on the final quarter of the regular season. Theyre off to an outstanding start, but the Eagles havent finished anything yet.
Philadelphia will clinch the NFC East title with one more victory, but is still competing with Minnesota (10-2), the upstart Rams and New Orleans (9-3) for the top overall seed in the NFC postseason and a first-round bye.
The challenge is were trying to eliminate distractions, Pederson said at the team hotel. Try to keep the week as normal as possible for the guys, for the coaches. Weve got a great setup here in the hotel.
Coaches have offices and workspace to get the work done. Players have got everything they need right here Dallas Goedert Super Bowl LI Jersey , from treatment, rehab, doctors, medical facilities, all of that.
The players and coaches have plenty to do after the loss to the Seahawks (8-4), who are also in the hunt for a high playoff seed.
The Eagles failed to score 20 points for the first time in 16 games, and Seattle repeatedly capitalized on Philadelphia mistakes on both sides of the ball.
While Carson Wentzs 348-yard passing game was obscured by his critical fumble at the Seattle goal line early in the second half Adidas Bo Horvat Jersey , the Philadelphia defense was left to lament its struggles in slowing down both Russell Wilson and the Seahawks running game at key moments.
Pederson sees plenty to correct in the next week, but nothing that cant be fixed.
I think sometimes winning can kind of cover up or mask some things, some deficiencies, Pederson said. A little chink in your armor, if there is any. And coaches and players fall into the same boat sometimes. We need games where we get hit in the mouth and we have to fight and battle and scratch. Yesterdays game was one of those games. You just have to understand that theres no substitute for the preparation and the hard work.
NOTES: TE Zach Ertz is in the NFLs concussion protocol after taking a big hit in the third quarter in Seattle. He will stay in California with the team while doctors guide him through the protocol to determine when he can play again, Pederson said. Ertz is Philadelphias leading receiver with 57 catches for 663 yards and seven TDs. Pederson spent much of Mondays session explaining his reasoning for a series of play calls and officiating challenge decisions. Notably, Pederson didnt challenge a pitch by Wilson to Mike Davis during the fourth quarter to pick up a key first down a pitch that technically appears to be an illegal forward pass on slow-motion replay. The Seahawks eventually scored the games final touchdown on the drive. (In) real time Authentic Ed Dickson Jersey , it looked fine. It looked legit, Pederson said. We didnt get all the necessary looks. They hustled to the line, but at the same time, it looked good, and I trust the guys upstairs making those decisions and didnt challenge that. I already challenged one in the half and lost that, so I didnt want to risk another timeout.
