Nathan Ray Seebeck-USA TODAY Sports Highlights and lowlights from Philadelphia’s Week 3 win. There was no sideline bickering this week. There were no doubts, either. Who the Eagles are supposed to be surfaced Monday night in a 25-11 demolition of the previously undefeated Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Raymond James Stadium. The 3-0 Eagles are one of three NFL teams still undefeated (San Francisco and Miami being the other two) entering Week 4. The Eagles are 3-0 for the first time in consecutive seasons since 1992 and 1993. Tailback D’Andre Swift logged another sterling...

Nathan Ray Seebeck-USA TODAY Sports It took a little while for the Birds to get going, they ended the first quarter with only three points but once they settled in they were firing on all cylinders. Where do we start?! For the second straight week it was the D’Andre Swift show and I enjoyed every second of it. Swift was awesome finishing with 130 yards on 16 carries. To no surprise the defense dominated holding Tampa Bay to 174 total yds. Bucs star wide receiver Mike Evans was limited to 2 receptions for 13 yards through three quarters and Baker Mayfield threw his...

Photo by Mike Carlson/ The Birds are 3-0! The Philadelphia Eagles are 3-0 after beating the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Monday night! Final score: 25 to 11. Sean Desai’s defense had a pretty good night. The Eagles limited the Bucs to just 174 yards of offense for 4.0 yards per play. They also produced two takeaways and a safety. This was not exactly the ‘get right’ game for the passing offense that many were hoping to see. That said, it may prove to be a step in the right direction. Brian Johnson’s unit ultimately gained 472 yards. It was just frustrating to see...

Mark J. Rebilas-USA TODAY Sports The Eagles left guard was sidelined after a big block for RB D’Andre Swift. The Eagles are relying on the run game once again as the rain pours down against Tampa Bay, and after Landon Dickerson pancaked the Bucs defender leading to a huge break out run by D’Andre Swift in the third quarter, the left guard was slow to get up. Dickerson ended up limping to the sideline and was later listed as questionable to return after suffering a knee contusion on the play. DANDRE SWIFT BEHIND THIS OL IS SIMPLY UNFAIRBACK TO BACK 100 YARD GAMES ...

Kim Klement Neitzel-USA TODAY Sports The young QB has now scored the most rushing touchdowns of any signal caller in the first 50 career games. With 9:15 left in the third quarter of Monday night’s contest between the Philadelphia Eagles and Tampa Bay Buccaneers, star quarterback Jalen Hurts sneaked into the endzone for six to give the Birds a 20-3 lead. The score was the 29th rushing touchdown of his career and he has now scored the most of those that any signal caller has in their first 50 NFL games. Breed of one@FirstrustBank | #FlyEaglesFly...

Photo by Julio Aguilar/ The Eagles QB might not have been feeling that way heading into Monday’s game against the Buccaneers. Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts might not be playing at full strength on Monday night against the Bucs, according to Adam Schefter, who reported at halftime that the QB had flu-like symptoms before kick-off. Jalen Hurts had "flu-like symptoms right before the game," according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.— Rob Tornoe (@RobTornoe) September 26, 2023 Hurts was 12-of-21 for 153 yards and one touchdown, along with one interception, in the first...

Photo by Mike Carlson/ What a play by the second-year safety. The Eagles had Reed Blankenship back from injury on Monday against the Bucs, and he made an impact immediately. He was already having an impressive game when the young safety made a hugely impressive snag before halftime, pulling in the interception — the first one Baker Mayfield has thrown all season, and the second one of Blankenship’s career.

Kim Klement-USA TODAY Sports The Eagles are on the road in Week 3, and will face the Buccaneers for the first time since the 2021 season. The Philadelphia Eagles are back on the road in Week 3, when they take on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Monday night. From being the first game of Week 2 to one of the last in Week 3, it feels like there has been so much football around the league since the Eagles last took the field. The team had a nice mini-bye week and are able to get some guys back from injuries, like James Bradberry and Reed Blankenship. We now know what the...

Photo by Dustin Satloff/ Who’s in and who’s out for Week 3. The Philadelphia Eagles officially announced the inactives list for their 2023 NFL Week 3 Monday Night Football game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The following seven Eagles players WILL NOT PLAY: Quez Watkins, Boston Scott, Mario Goodrich, Tanner McKee, Tyler Steen, Moro Ojomo, and Albert Okwuegbunam. Watkins was ruled out on the final injury report. The Eagles still have five active wide receivers: DeVonta Smith, A.J. Brown, Olamide Zaccheaus, Britain Covey, and Devon Allen. Allen is making his...

WHAT’S GOING ON BLEEDING GREEN NATION?! My apologies for the late WTS entry. Real life waits for no man. Since I am late, I will keep the into brief: The Eagles Won We ran the ball A lot The Vikings turned the ball over A lot The passing game (on both sides of the ball) sucked. The Cowboys lost to the Arizona Cardinals (not related to this particular game, but still) Let’s get into the doom and gloom then shall we! This is What They’re Saying About The Eagles: SERIOUSLY, WE RAN THE BALL Edition ...

Kim Klement-USA TODAY Sports How are you feeling about this matchup? It feels like it’s been forever since we’ve seen the Philadelphia Eagles play a football game. Pretty weird to have two NFL Sundays go by without the Birds being in action. One would expect the Eagles used the mini-bye to try to help Jalen Hurts and the passing offense find a rhythm. It’ll be easier to feel better about the team’s outlook once the aerial attack gets going. Is Monday night going to be the get-right game the Eagles are looking for? The Tampa Bay Buccaneers entered the season...

The Philadelphia Eagles are in Florida to take on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Monday Night Football. In order to preview this Week 3 matchup between two 2-0 teams, I reached out to our enemies over at Bucs Nation. The elegant Evan Wanish kindly took the time to answer my questions about this upcoming battle. Let’s take a look at the answers.

Jalen Hurts finds ‘a little extra inspiration’ as Eagles tangle with Buccaneers - InquirerOne of those things stored in Hurts’ memory bank going into Monday night’s game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Raymond James Stadium will be Hurts’ lackluster playoff debut there two seasons ago.
