Eagles Lose Thriller to Falcons 22-21

In a dramatic turn of events, the Philadelphia Eagles suffered a 22-21 defeat to the Atlanta Falcons after a late-game coaching blunder and a dropped pass by Saquon Barkley. With just under two minutes left and leading 18-15, the Eagles opted for a pass play instead of attempting to secure a first down on the ground, resulting in a dropped catch that stopped the clock. The Eagles then kicked a field goal, allowing the Falcons, led by Kirk Cousins, to drive down the field and score a game-winning touchdown. The Eagles' defense, expected to hold firm, faltered as Cousins connected with Drake London for a touchdown. In the final moments, Jalen Hurts' pass was intercepted, sealing the Eagles' fate. This game marked a disappointing home opener for Philadelphia after a promising start to the season.
