The Legend of Jalen Hurts Grows
The Eagles don’t win easy, but they found a way in Minnesota. Jalen Hurts delivered his best performance of the season, throwing for 326 yards, three touchdowns, and posting a perfect 158.3 passer rating while AJ Brown hauled in two scores and a clutch 3rd-and-9 bomb to ice the game. DeVonta Smith added a 79-yard dagger, and the defense finally showed some bite again, picking off Carson Wentz twice—including a Jalyx Hunt pick-six—and getting timely stops in the red zone.
Despite a banged-up offensive line, inconsistent run game, and shaky play-calling, the Eagles escaped with a gritty 28–22 win to snap their two-game skid and move to 5–2, firmly in control of the NFC East.
Embiid Returns as Sixers Prepare for Season Opener
Joel Embiid made his long-awaited return Friday night against the Timberwolves, and for the first time in a long time, the Sixers actually looked… fun. In just 19 minutes, Embiid dropped 14 points, 8 assists, 7 rebounds, and 3 steals while running a fast, movement-heavy offense that finally ditched the slow iso-ball we’ve all suffered through for years. Tyrese Maxey poured in 27, rookie VJ Edgecombe added 26, and Quentin Grimes chipped in 22 off the bench as Nick Nurse’s new system showed signs of life.
Embiid looked locked in and unselfish, praising the team’s youth, energy, and depth while making it clear he’s playing with a chip on his shoulder after being “disrespected” by national rankings. It’s only preseason, but if this is the new Joel Embiid—and the new Sixers—it might be time to believe again.
