The match hasn’t even reached half-time yet, and it is proving to be a feisty one. The Eagles and Vikings game has already seen a significant upset come within 10 minutes of the game. While the update was one of Josh Metellus’s injuries, it has proven that the match has been an eventful one. Despite all the noise around the game, Jalen Hurts has managed to carve a name for his game.

The star QB who was one the highest-paid players in the NFL, is proving his quality yet again. Before the end of the 2nd quarter, Hurts made his mark with a Touchdown snatching the lead back from the Vikings in their home stadium, Lincoln Financial Field.

Jalen Hurts on the mark yet again

The QB had a difficult first half against the Minnesota Vikings. While the Eagles led the Vikings 3-0 from the 1st quarter, it was only due to a punt from their kicker. The second half however has exploded to life with TDs from both teams. With the Vikings nabbing a 7-3 lead from their TD, the Eagles were on the verge of heading into halftime behind the Vikings.

However, Hurts took it upon himself to change the tide for the Philadelphia Eagles. With less than 5 minutes on the clock in the second quarter, Hurts pushed forward and helped the Eagles grab a TD within 10 yards. The points helped the Eagles go 10-7 against the Vikings, which could prove crucial at the end of the match.

Hurts’ effective strategy against the Vikings

Hurts has doubled his TD count for the season after his Week 1 heroics. While he only ever scored 1 TD against the Patriots, he provided 170 yards for the team with 22 completed passes. Although the match is still far from over, he will hope for a similar performance by the end of the match.

With one of the richest QBs in the league leading the Eagles to 2-0, can he go all the way to the Super Bowl back-to-back? What are your thoughts? Let us know in the comments.
