National reactions: Eagles flying high at 4-0 after win over Jaguars

Doug Pederson returned home to a raucous ovation, and then the celebration ended as the Eagles beat the Jaguars, 29-21, moving Philadelphia to 4-0, keeping them as the lone undefeated team in the NFL.

The Eagles were faced with adversity after a Jalen Hurts interception was returned for a touchdown, but the offense settled down, and the team ran off 29 straight points.

Zach Berman breaks down Miles Sanders and his career day on Sunday after logging 134 yards on 27 strong carries.

“Sanders is playing the best football of his career. He now has 72 carries for 356 yards and three touchdowns on the season. He’s closed out games, run decisively and has not turned the ball over. But he only had 45 carries through the first three games, so the significant increase in rushes on Sunday was revealing.”

Peter King so eloquently breaks down what Jalen Hurts, and the Eagles have cooking.

Eagles 29, Jaguars 21. The 4-0 Eagles, the NFL’s last unbeaten team. Now, in a hallway outside the Eagles’ locker room, Hurts looked like he was ready for a GQ cover shoot: Sky blue suit, white shirt with HURTS embroidered on each cuff, skinny navy tie, shiny blue pocket square, polished black dress shoes, gold watch. The playing conditions, a distant memory.
