We’ve got your full Monday Night Football recap and reaction. On the night Nick Foles was honored and officially retired as an Eagle, and with Jason Kelce in the house, it was the Eagles’ ground game that was the story for most of the game, with Jalen Hurts and Saquon Barkley both topping 80 yards rushing. Meanwhile, it was another underwhelming night for the Eagles’ defensive line, saved by more situational steadiness on third (and fourth) down and in the red zone.
Then came the games’s big decision, as Nick Sirianni opted to throw the ball on a late third down, then kick a short field goal to give the Eagles a six-point lead. Kirk Cousins then quickly drove down the field to give the Falcons a 22-21 lead. With one last chance, Hurts threw an interception. Game over.
Join Super Bowl winner Vinny Curry, Fran Duffy, Jamie Lynch and Bo Wulf for a full recap of the Eagles’ heartbreaking loss.
