The Philadelphia Eagles finally rode their home woes yesterday by defeating the visiting New Orleans Saints 40-29. The run game was once again the storyline as Miles Sanders returned from his low ankle sprain, posting 94 yards on 16 carries. Jordan Howard added 63 yards on 10 carries before leaving the game with a back injury, and Jalen Hurts had an exceptional game on the ground leaving the field with 69 yards on 18 carries and posting 3 touchdowns on the ground including an exceptional zone-read play where he iced the game with his last rushing touchdown. The guys will analyze what has been clicking since that embarrassment in Las Vegas. Topics on the recent success will include dominant O-Line play, the defense continues to step up against average QBs, and Darius “Big Play” Slay creeping into discussions as the DPOY. The guys will then give their predictions for next week as the Philadelphia Eagles go up to East Rutherford and take on the New York Giants! Jimmy and Evan also want to discuss why the Jalen Hurts legal team is so bitter.
Also on tap for tonight, the guys will be live reacting to the Philadelphia 76er away matchup in California against the Sacramento Kings as they are nearing the end of this west coast road trip. So far the team is 1-3 with 2 games remaining; can they find a way to leave this road trip with a .500 record! The guys will talk about it.
