The Philadelphia Eagles were put up against the Denver Broncos and lost due to the Eagles letting their guard down and the Broncos were able to pull off a comeback finishing the game 21-17.
The Eagles lost while they were leading going into the 4th quarter 3-17 and by the end of the game Bo Nix finished with 242 yards and 24 out of 39 passes completed on Sunday October 5th, at the Lincoln Financial Field.
This game was important to both teams as the Broncos were looking to add another win to their rough start with a record of 2-2 while the Eagles were trying to stay unbeaten this season with a 4-0 record but also unbeaten since last season which made them 10-0 since losing the Commanders on December 22nd, 2024.
”We kept stopping them on defense and we started putting drives together. We had a good drive there at the end of the third quarter and we got our confidence back,” stated Bo Nix, Broncos quarterback, after the game to a CBS Sports interviewer.
Late in the third quarter, Surtain II knocked the ball out of A.J. Brown’s hands forced the Eagles to turnover the ball which led to the Broncos scoring early into the fourth quarter with a run by Dobbins.
”We got to go back and really learn from this, take ownership for the things that we can control, look into our process and our system and see what needs to be reset and what doesn’t need to be reset and continue to press forward,” said Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts in a press conference after the loss.
The score in the first quarter was tied at 3-3 but Jalen Hurts made a two yard pass to the tight end Dallas Goedert to take the lead going into halftime.
Although Bo Nix gave all the praise to his defense, he was their best player overall finishing with 242 passing yards and 22 rushing yards to help his team come out with the victory in the end.
Jalen Hurts was the player of the game on the Eagles side as he had 280 passing yards with 23 out of 38 passes completed but only 3 yards on two rushing attempts.
At last this electrifying game game ended 21-18 after Jalen Hurts’ last attempt was swatted after the Broncos scored 18 points throughout the half just the quarter after the Eagles scored their last touchdown with a 47 yard pass to Saquon Barkley.
