Instant analysis of Eagles 25-11 win over Buccaneers on Monday Night Football

The Eagles played another sloppy contest, but moved to 3-0 on the season after a dominating 25-11 win over the Buccaneers on ABC’s Monday Night Football.

Eagles defense dominates

Tampa finished with 174 total yards, and were 5-10 on third downs.

The discussion worked

After a perceived blowup in Week 2, A.J. Brown and Jalen Hurts connected often on Monday night, with the star wide receiver finishing with nine catches for 131 yards on a game-high 14 targets.

D'Andre Swift with another 100 yard game

Swift will keep the hot hand after logging 16 carries, for 130 yards on the evening. The hard running Swift would have more, but Kenneth Gainwell finished the final drive.

Mike Evans is an insane athlete

Evans had five catches for 60 yards, and a touchdown, including this fantastic 24-yard, one-handed grab.

Baker Mayfield

Mayfield was unable to make enough downfield plays to get the win, going 15-25 passing, for 146 yards, one touchdown, and one interception.

Mayfield was 5-10 on third down after being near perfect through two games, and he finished with a 73.1 rating.

Eagles finish Bucs off in style

Philadelphia got the football back up 25-11 with 9:22 left and all they did was drive from their own 25 and run the clock out.

Jalen Carter is All-World

The game-wrecker known as ‘Breadman’ dominated the contest in stretches, and finished with two tackles, one half sack and quarterback hit.

The numbers were even more dominant per Next Gen Stats.

The only player in the NFL with more pressures than Carter is the guy who exited Philadelphia for San Francisco.
