This was an odd Philadelphia Eagles defensive performance to assess, as it was far from perfect on a down-to-down basis, but full of big plays that swung the game. The defense gave up yardage and made mistakes, yet still created two interceptions, scored a defensive touchdown, and held the Minnesota Vikings to just one touchdown […]

This was one of the best games of Jalen Hurts’ career. Against the Minnesota Vikings, Hurts finished with a perfect passer rating (158.3), completing 19 of 23 passes for 326 yards and three touchdowns.

The Minnesota Vikings were defeated at home by the Eagles 28-22. That doesn’t mean everything was bad. There were some solid performances on offense and defense. The team moved the ball effectively between the 20s. Here are a few players that stood out to me. Jordan Addison Addison has played well since returning from his […]

The Minnesota Vikings were defeated by the Philadelphia Eagles 28-22 on Sunday. Disappointing Red Zone performances, big plays, turnovers, and some questionable calls led to a deflating loss. The offense moved the ball up and down the field with ease. They just couldn’t punch it in for a touchdown. The defense was strong, for the […]
Was what we saw on Sunday the Los Angeles Rams’ best game of the year? Can anyone say “no”, or name another game that was better? I don’t think so. Had the Rams beaten the Philadelphia Eagles then we’d have some competition, but they didn’t so I think their win over the Jags is their […]
