The Philadelphia Eagles suffered a heartbreaking 22-21 loss to the Atlanta Falcons in their home opener, despite leading late in the game. A critical dropped pass by Saquon Barkley on third down allowed the Falcons to regain possession, leading to a touchdown pass from Kirk Cousins to Drake London with just 34 seconds remaining. Jalen Hurts struggled at times, throwing an interception that sealed the game for Atlanta, while also showing promise with his rushing performance. The Eagles' defense faltered in the final moments, unable to apply pressure as Cousins executed a flawless game-winning drive. With this defeat, the Eagles dropped to 1-1 and face a challenging matchup against the New Orleans Saints next week. Fans expressed their disappointment, reflecting the emotional toll of the late-game collapse.
