The Philadelphia Eagles are 5-6 after beating the New Orleans Saints on Sunday! Final score: 40 to 29.
The Birds have dominated lesser quarterbacks all season long and that trend continued against Trevor Siemian. The Saints couldn’t get much going against Jonathan Gannon’s defense, especially early on. New Orleans went on a little run late in the game that cut the lead to 11 points but it wasn’t enough.
Philly had success moving the ball with their ground game despite facing the NFL’s top-ranked run defense. They stalled a bit too often in opponent territory, settling for Jake Elliott field goals.
