From the article

The Eagles still blow the protection and allow a free rusher at Tanner McKee. The downfield route combination does not work, but the Cowboys leave Barkley completely uncovered in the flat. McKee finds the available answer, which is good, but this is hardly evidence that all the issues with this part of the offense have disappeared.

McKee completed opening play-action against pressure; benefited from coverage bust

On the opening play-action, McKee completed a pass against pressure despite the Eagles blowing protection and allowing a free rusher. The downfield route combination did not work, but Barkley was left uncovered in the flat, allowing McKee to find the available option. The source respects the play-call but notes this is not evidence that the offense's protection issues have disappeared; the completion came more from Cowboys' coverage breakdown than offensive execution.
