The Eagles moved to 4-0 on Sunday and remain the NFL’s only undefeated team after a hard-fought 29-21 home win over the Jaguars in rainy conditions.

Jacksonville jumped out to a 14-0 lead in Doug Pederson’s return, buoyed by an Andre Sicso interception return for a touchdown off a misguided pass from Philadelphia quarterback Jalen Hurts.

The Jaguars (2-2) entered the contest No. 1 in the league against the run but were shredded on the ground as the Eagles racked up 210 yards rushing.

The Eagles will now hit the road in Week five to face the Cardinals, and here’s your instant analysis from Sunday’s exciting win.

Sanders is looking for a new deal and is justifying his worth after a career-high 134 yards on 27 carries and two touchdowns.

Sanders also caught two passes for 22 yards and helped set the tone against the Jaguars’ top-ranked rush defense.

Philadelphia had five players leave the game with an injury, and DeVonta Smith was also a visitor to the medical tent.

How those injuries to Slay and the offensive linemen pan out could have a huge impact moving forward.
