The best team in the NFL looked like anything but down the stretch. That changed Saturday. Keyed by the return to top form of key offensive leaders, Eagles fans once again have hope for more. ✍️ ZBerm
said. “You don’t know if you’re gonna block or you’re reading, so he puts that threat into their eyes and he can always pull it at any time.”
Hurts said he felt “good enough” on the field, which was the same answer he gave in Week 18. But this was not the Week 18 Hurts. Nick Sirianni said Hurts had “no limitations,” which meant the Eagles could run him if and when they wanted to. “That doesn’t mean he’s always going to carry it because some of that is determined on the defense, but when he does carry it, he demands that respect on the backside,” Sirianni said. “Nothing was off limits tonight.”
Sirianni compared Hurts to famed former 76ers point guard Maurice Cheeks for navigating through the different looks presented by Giants defensive coordinator Wink Martindale. This shouldn’t shortchange Hurts’ efficiency as a passer. The Eagles built a 28-0 halftime lead, so they didn’t need an ongoing air attack. But they built that lead with the help of Hurts’ arm. Hurts went 5-for-5 for 68 yards and a touchdown on the opening drive. By halftime, he was 12-of-17 for 118 yards and two touchdowns.The offense’s success — and the running game in particular — was not only about Hurts.
