Despite the loss to the Cowboys, Darius Slay stood out as a top performer

The Eagles were dominated in Dallas on Sunday night, suffering a 33-13 loss to the Cowboys on NBC’s Sunday Night Football. Many numbers tell the story of the disappointing loss, but the Week 14 PFF grades offer the most damming evidence of elite talent underachieving at critical positions. Quarterback Jalen Hurts was 18-27 passing for 197 yards, no touchdowns, and one costly turnover. Philadelphia’s big 3 of Hurts, A.J. Brown, and DeVonta Smith accounted for all three turnovers in the loss. The Eagles still control their destiny and can win the NFC East by winning out. With preparation for Seattle underway, here are the best and worst performers from Sunday night per PFF.
