Man, my hats off to Philly and their fans for a great game and a fun two weeks leading up.
We struggled to defend what really is a high-school offense, which was wild and I totally didn't expect it. They have the pieces to run it at the NFL level though. I thought we'd thoroughly dominate them because I didn't respect their offense. That O-line is really, really good and obviously makes it all possible.
Hurts also played a lot better than I thought he would. Some of that is he was healthier than I thought he was going to be and some of it was he just made some gutsy throws. Against a more veteran secondary I think he gets picked a couple of times but he understood he could take chances and he did, to great results. As Hurts continues to grow as a passer, he's going to get even more difficult to defend.
This will be a fun game to go back and watch again.
