Eagles Stun Rams With Last-Second Blocked Field Goal Return to Cap 19-Point Rally

Two fourth-quarter blocks on Rams field-goal tries flipped a game Los Angeles had controlled.

Overview

  • Jalen Carter blocked a 36-yard attempt with 8:46 left before Jalen Hurts led a 17-play, 91-yard drive, hitting DeVonta Smith for the go-ahead touchdown with 1:48 remaining.
  • With three seconds left, Jordan Davis swatted Joshua Karty’s 44-yard try and returned it 61 yards for the clinching score, sealing a 33-26 win and a 3-0 start for Philadelphia.
  • Hurts finished 21-of-32 for 226 yards and three touchdowns, and A.J. Brown logged 109 receiving yards and a score to power the comeback from a 26-7 third-quarter deficit.
  • Los Angeles repeatedly settled for field goals as Karty converted several kicks but had two blocked, underscoring the Rams’ red-zone struggles in an otherwise strong first half.
  • Eagles right tackle Lane Johnson left with a neck injury, and NFL Next Gen Stats clocked the 336-pound Davis at 18.59 mph on his return, a play that also swung many point-spread bets.
