UNDATED (AP) — The Philadelphia Eagles have knocked off the NFL’s last unbeaten team.
The Eagles harassed former Philadelphia quarterback Sam Bradford in his return to the city and posted a 21-10 win over Minnesota. Bradford was sacked six times and forced into his first three turnovers of the season. He was traded to the Vikings just before the start of the season when the Eagles decided to go with rookie Carson Wentz.
Bradford finished 24-of-41 for 224 yards, one touchdown and one interception. Wentz went 16-of-28 for 138 yards, one score and two picks.
The Eagles’ Josh Hoff brought back a kickoff 98 yards for a touchdown.
The win broke a two-game losing streak and improved Philadelphia’s record to 4-2. Minnesota fell to 5-1.
