Eagles: Jalen Hurts' insane OT heroics vs. Bills fuel MVP buzz
Jalen Hurts and the Philadelphia Eagles pulled off a sensational 37-34 overtime win at home in Week 12 over Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills . Not only that, but Hurts also appears to have bolstered his candidacy for MVP honors this season with his memorable performance in leading Philadelphia to a come-from-behind victory.
“Looking like the league MVP,” Jemele Hill shared on X (formerly Twitter).
Here's one take from a hyped X user, Eagles are 10-1 . ames Bradberry INTERCEPTION . 4th quarter comeback . Smitty, AJ & Olamide all 1 TD a piece . 5 total touchdowns from Jalen Hurts. The Eagles are the best team in the NFL.
“!!!! !!!!!!!!! !!!! WHAT A GAME! WHAT AN ENDING! !!!,” said after Jalen Hurts gave the Eagles the win with his game-winning 12-yard run in overtime.
When it was all said and done on the field, Hurts had racked up 200 passing yards and three touchdowns with an interception on 18-for-31 completions and also rushed for 65 yards and two touchdowns on 14 carries. In other words, Hurts nearly did it all for the Eagles, who improved to 10-1 and pushed their win streak to five games.
There was no denying of Hurts' greatness in that game, as the Eagles wouldn't likely be even remotely close to completing a comeback if not for the quaarterback's explosion.
The Eagles will turn their attention next on the San Francisco 49ers in Week 13.
