VIDEO: Eagles work to improve scoring in the red zone
The Eagles are 5-1 but that doesn?t mean they don?t have flaws - nobody has been worse inside the 20 yard line this year.

PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- The Eagles are 5-1, one of the best teams in NFL, and they're averaging 30.5 points per game, which is the most in the NFC.

However, that doesn't mean they're a team without flaws - nobody has been worse inside the 20 yard line this year.

"We have left a lot of yards out on the field that we need to convert into points," said Coach Chip Kelly.

"You feel that way but you can't let it bother you. Everyone has that feeling. The important thing is how do you move on? There's nothing we can do about that, we won those games. The most important thing is the record not stats," said Nick Foles.

Coach Kelly spent the bye week studying film and trying to find ways to score.

One piece of tape that could come in handy, at least for this week, is last year's game against the Arizona Cardinals, when Foles threw three touchdowns - two in the red zone.

"We're not going back and waxing nostalgic in plays we did make or didn't make," said Kelly.

"You go into the game knowing their scheme and then I will react. You don't really know what's gonna happen. You try to react when the play is going on. You recognize the defense, you recognize what's going on and once the ball snaps and you're going through your drop, you analyze in a split second," said Foles.

A split second could determine whether or not the Eagles leave Arizona on Sunday 6-1 or 5-2.
