Eagles Edge Browns 20-16 in Close Game

The Philadelphia Eagles secured a hard-fought 20-16 victory over the Cleveland Browns, with Jalen Hurts throwing for 264 yards and two touchdowns, including a crucial 45-yard pass to DeVonta Smith in the fourth quarter. A.J. Brown, back from injury, made a significant impact with six catches for 116 yards and a touchdown, helping the Eagles improve to 3-2. Despite the win, the Eagles faced criticism for their inconsistent execution and a lack of offensive momentum, particularly in the absence of strong running plays. The Browns, now 1-5, continued to struggle offensively, with Deshaun Watson's performance failing to quell calls for his benching, as Cleveland has yet to score 20 points in a game this season. The Eagles' victory was marred by a lackluster crowd and mounting pressure on coach Nick Sirianni, who promised changes after the bye week. The Browns' only touchdown came from a defensive play, underscoring their ongoing offensive woes.
