The Eagles were wilting. The heat was beginning to catch up with the defending Super Bowl champions against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday at sweltering Raymond James Stadium.
The most important thing is that the Eagles survived with a 31-25 victory, moving to 4-0 and winning for the 20th time in the last 21 games—and picking up their franchise-tying 10th-straight victory (including playoffs). The Eagles remain one of two NFL teams that are undefeated (Buffalo is the other).
Eagles’ coach Nick Sirianni became the third coach in NFL history with three 4-0 starts in their first five years as a head coach, joining the legendary Paul Brown and George Halas (Sirianni, Brown and Halas merits some type of emoji).
The Eagles had to sweat this out ending—again.
