The Eagles and Bills are the NFL’s only remaining unbeatens after four teams suffered their first loss of the season on Sunday.
Philadelphia dealt the Buccaneers their first defeat in a 31-25 win and covered as a 3½-point road favorite after squandering most of a 24-3 first-half lead.
The Eagles picked up where they left off last week, when they returned a blocked field goal for a touchdown on the final play of the game to deal Rams bettors a bad beat for the ages.
This time, Philadelphia blocked a punt and returned it for a score to take a 7-0 lead in the day’s only matchup of 3-0 teams. The Eagles never trailed, though quarterback Baker Mayfield twice drove Tampa Bay into Philadelphia territory in the final minutes with a chance to cover. The Buccaneers turned it over each time.
