“It’s a part of the game,” Hurts said, “and I accept whatever comes with that. You know, I told you guys I’ve submitted myself to doing whatever it takes to win, and some things come with that. But ultimately you just got to make the adjustments you need to make to be able to play at a high level. There won’t be any excuses going in or coming out.”

Although the Eagles called 34 rushing plays compared to just 21 pass attempts, quarterback Jalen Hurts played his part as well. He was efficient through the air (13-for-21, 131 yards), distributing touchdown passes to wideout Jahan Dotson and tight end Dallas Goedert.
