The Philadelphia Eagles lost a close one in Week 10 to the Miami Dolphins -- 20-19 to be exact. According to head coach Chip Kelly, bad luck played a factor in the team's fifth loss out of nine 2015 regular season games.

"It was just one of those games," Kelly said Monday to reporters, per the Philadelphia Daily Inquirer. "The Jarvis Landry [touchdown] catch on the tipped ball . . . I've never seen that play. We hit [the quarterback] . . . but the ball rolls out of the back of the end zone [for a safety]. If we recover that ball . . . there's a lot of different plays in that game where the ball didn't seem to bounce our way."

The Eagles could probably also blame their running game. The team combined for 83 yards rushing on 36 attempts for a 2.3 yards per carry average. The Eagles also committed seven penalties for 54 yards.

According to Kelly, there was not just one play or one are of the game that led to the loss. If he could pinpoint just one thing, it would be a lot easier.

"If there was one thing, everybody would say, 'Hey, if we fix this, we're golden.' It's individual breakdowns at different spots," Kelly said. "It's not one guy who has all the penalties. It's not one guy who is not executing or missing an assignment or running a wrong route."

The Eagles will look to get back to .500 when they host the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 11. Backup quarterback Mark Sanchez will most likely be making his first start of the season.
