EAGLES DEFEAT JAGUARS, 29-21; IMPROVE TO 4-0 RECORD
* Philadelphia is the only remaining undefeated team in the NFL. The Eagles are 4-0 for the sixth time in franchise history, previously doing so in 1954, 1981, 1992, 1993 and 2004.
* Philadelphia’s 4-game winning streak is tied for the longest stretch during the Nick Sirianni era (also 12/5/21-1/2/22). The Eagles have won 7 consecutive regular-season games started by Jalen Hurts, which is the longest active streak among NFL QBs.
* Only Patrick Mahomes (.846, 11-2) has a higher QB winning percentage than Hurts (.833, 10-2) since Week 8 of 2021 (including playoffs).
* After falling behind 14-0 in the first quarter, Philadelphia rallied to score 29 unanswered points, including 22 points off takeaways. The Eagles have scored 24+ points in 4 straight games for the first time since a 9-game winning streak during the 2017 season (9/24/17-11/26/17).
DEFENSE FORCES 5 TAKEAWAYS, 7 DRIVES WITH 3-OR-FEWER PLAYS
* Philadelphia forced a season-high 5 takeaways (4 FRs, 1 INT) and finished +4 in turnover differential against an opponent that led the league in that category entering Week 4.
* The Eagles’ 5 takeaways are their most in a single game since a 19-10, Christmas Day victory on 12/25/17 vs. Oakland (also 5). Philadelphia’s 5 takeaways are tied for the most by any NFL team this season (also Tampa Bay in Week 2; Pittsburgh in Week 1).
* Haason Reddick finished with 4 tackles, 2.0 sacks, 2 FFs and 2 FRs (career high). Reddick, who leads the NFL with 3.0 strip-sacks this season, is the only Eagle since at least 1950 to have 2+ FFs and 2+ FRs in a single game.
* James Bradberry hauled in a red zone INT at the PHI 7 and returned it 5 yards to the PHI 12 during the third quarter, protecting the Eagles’ 20-14 lead.
* Fletcher Cox and Javon Hargrave also recorded timely FRs.
* Philadelphia’s defense also registered 7 drives allowed 3-or-fewer plays in today’s win.

* Philadelphia allowed just 13 first downs (3 rushing, 9 passing, 1 penalty) and limited Jacksonville to 2-of-7 (28.6%) on third downs. The Jaguars finished the game with only 219 total yards, including 148 passing yards and 71 rushing yards, along with their 5 turnovers.

In the first half alone, the Eagles rushed for 112 yards, more than doubling the Jaguars’ league-leading rushing yards allowed per game (55.0) entering today’s game.
* Philadelphia has rushed for 200+ yards and 4+ TDs in multiple games in a season for the first time since the 2013 campaign (216 yards and 4 TDs in Week 1 at Detroit).
