Eagles Seek Redemption, Eye Top NFC Seed After Historic Hurts Achievement

Eagles Seek Redemption, Eye Top NFC Seed After Historic Hurts Achievement

The move was uniquely developed during head coach Nick Sirianni’s time with the Colts and went further as the Eagles coach as he became very effective on short yardage routes. Kelce gets under the opposing defensive line, allowing Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts to plow forward with the help of his teammates behind him to gain a first down or a rushing touchdown.

 

Philadelphia’s last shutout was on Christmas Day in a 33-25 win over the Giants that marked Hurts’ 15th rushing touchdown of the season. He made the history books for breaking Cam Newtown’s all-time record for most rushing touchdowns in a season by a quarterback.

 

So far this season, Swift has a career-high 988 yards on 216 rushing attempts and five touchdowns in 15 games for the team. The Eagles (11-4) are looking for redemption and a new spark after a three-game losing streak, falling to the 49ers, Cowboys and Seahawks. After knocking off the Giants, they still have a chance to win the top seed in the NFC if they win their remaining two games in the regular season and if the 49ers and Lions lose one of their final two games.
