Unceasing Performance from Jalen Hurts
On the other side, the Eagles' quarterback Jalen Hurts showcased a remarkable performance throughout the match. Despite being under the weather and traveling separately from his teammates, Hurts managed to break Cam Newton's record by scoring two rushing touchdowns.
Hurts's performances in the first three quarters appeared to indicate the Eagles' victory. However, Lock's brilliant game-winning drive in the final moments of the game stole the show.
One of Lock's most memorable plays was a 34-yard gain when he found receiver DK Metcalf for a spectacular catch under immense pressure. The Eagles regained the ball, only for Love to provide a decisive intervention with an interception near the half field.
