The Eagles gained 224 yards but went only 1-of-5 on third down. They ended the half when time ran out with them at their own 43.
Jalen Hurts flipped a 3-yard touchdown pass to Dallas Goedert and scored on a 1-yard tush push. He ran four consecutive tush pushes getting nothing on third down, 2 yards on fourth down, nothing on first down and a touchdown on second down.
He completed 14 of 18 passes for 164 yards and a touchdown and ran for 10 yards and a touchdown on six carries. Saquon Barkley ran for 56 yards on eight carries, and A.J. Brown caught five passes for 73 yards. Goedert added six receptions for 50 yards and a score.
