Jalen Hurts led the Philadelphia Eagles to a 24-22 victory over the Washington Commanders. Hurts made several crucial plays, including a 22-yard run on 3rd-and-18 and a game-winning touchdown pass. Hurts is now the third quarterback since 1950 to start his career with six straight opening day wins.

The Eagles will celebrate on Sunday night after winning 24-22 over the Washington Commanders in their season opener at Lincoln Financial Field. Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni and his players will say during their post-game interviews that winning an NFL game is difficult.

The Eagles special teams was the difference in the game, while the Commanders special teams cost them.
