CHICAGO — Even when he isn’t anywhere close to his best, Jalen Hurts continues to spark the Eagles.
On a frigid Sunday afternoon, with 20-plus mph winds gusting, the team’s starting quarterback looked far from the version of himself that fans and pundits have grown to adore this season. Hurts has catapulted himself atop the league’s MVP conversation with some jaw-dropping performances, but he has also been consistent with his approach and decision-making.
Entering the Week 15 contest against the Bears, Hurts had just three interceptions over 13 games. He nearly doubled that season total in the Windy City as he was picked off twice in the first half. Despite the miscues, Hurts recorded a career-high three rushing touchdowns, and the Eagles emerged with a 25-20 win to improve their NFL-best record to 13-1.
