MINNEAPOLIS — Jalen Hurts and the Philadelphia Eagles rebounded from back-to-back losses to beat the Minnesota Vikings, 28-22, on Sunday at U.S. Bank Stadium.
Here’s who stood out (and who struggled) in the Eagles’ key road win.
Winner: Jalen Hurts
This was Hurts’ best performance of the season by a wide margin. Hurts completed 19 of 23 passes for 326 yards, three touchdowns and zero interceptions. Late in the fourth quarter, his passer rating was a perfect 158.3. And the numbers don’t lie. Hurts threw an absolute dime on the 79-yard touchdown to DeVonta Smith. He dissected the defense and directed A.J. Brown to the game’s opening score. He extended plays, kept his eyes downfield and moved the chains with his arm multiple times under duress. Some of the best we’ve ever seen from No.
