The Philadelphia Eagles suffered an embarrassing loss to the Arizona Cardinals in Week 17, and their fans couldn't believe it. At one point late in the fourth quarter, a camera caught one of them asking "What the hell are you doing?!?"

With the score tied at 28, the Eagles drove the ball to the Cardinals' 20-yard line with 4:18 remaining in the contest. After a holding call and a four-yard run, they faced second-and-16 from Arizona's 26. Instead of searching for something down the field, quarterback Jalen Hurts ran the ball off the right tackle for a three-yard loss, which made it third-and-19 at the 29. The crowd couldn't believe the play call.

Yeah, we're all wondering that.

On the next play, Hurts tossed a short pass that gained four yards and the Eagles had to settle for a field goal and a 31-28 lead. The Cardinals then drove right down the field for a touchdown to take a 35-31 lead with 32 seconds to go. A last gasp drive from the Eagles fell short and they dropped to 11-5 on the season, as Arizona improved to 4-12. Just a horrible loss for Philly.
