The Eagles escaped with their ninth win of the season, largely thanks to a late-game drive sparked by a steady run game and Hurts’ athleticism.
Midway through the Eagles’ 17-16 win over the Indianapolis Colts at Lucas Oil Stadium on Sunday, the team’s offense was growing frustrated with the lack of production. The Eagles entered the fourth quarter trailing, 13-3, with turnovers and untimely penalties killing multiple promising drives.
The Eagles, seemingly trying to grind down the clock, then called nine straight running plays that produced 28 yards and the decisive score. Sirianni said the emotion and anxiety of the game against his former team caused him to look away from the action on the third-down draw play. Instead, he watched pass game coordinator Kevin Patullo’s reaction to deduce that Hurts had crossed the goal line.
Hurts led the Eagles with 16 carries for 86 yards and a touchdown. He broke off a 23-yard run early in the fourth quarter that set up the touchdown pass to Watkins. Hurts said the conversation traces back to Saturday night when he told his receivers to talk to him about their matchups and how they saw things.
