There was speculation going into Sunday on weather or not the Eagles were still the real deal after coming off of a two game losing streak, however that was all put to rest when the Eagles topped the Vikings 21-10.
It was a very sloppy showdown to start with a combined 5 turnovers in the 1st quarter one of which being Sam Bradford's first interception as a Viking. There was not a whole lot of momentum going for either team until Philadelphia Eagles WR and KR Josh Huff took a kickoff 98 yards to the house for the games first touchdown. The birds then proceeded to go for the two point conversion after a penalty on the PAT, they were successful in doing so giving them an 8 point edge going into the half.
After the half the game continued to be a defensive showdown with no offensive touchdowns scored until Eagles QB Carson Wentz was able to hook up with WR Dorial Green-Beckham for DGB's first TD as an Eagle. The rest of the game was shutdown by Philly's Defense allowing one TD in the final minutes after the Eagles had solidified the win.
In the end there was a total of 8 turnovers, 4 a piece in a very defensive based game. However it was good to see the Eagles Offense get in the end zone which they hadent done since week 5 against the lions. Regardless a win is a win moving the Eagles to 4-2 and second in their division
