A.J. Brown gets payback via two touchdowns against ex-Tennessee teammates as the Philadelphia Eagles coast to a 35-10 win over the Titans on Sunday.
It couldn't have gone much better for Hurts' MVP chances, or if Brown was really seeking revenge against his former team after the acrimonious trade last spring, when Brown expressed his frustration over not getting a new contract.And Brown had to get his first touchdown catch twice, each time from 40 yards out. The first one, down the right sideline, was overruled after a replay review that showed Brown's second foot landed out of bounds.
But really, the Eagles' entire wide receiving corps enjoyed success against Tennessee, which came into the game with the 31st ranked pass defense. Hurts orchestrated all of it. He had 268 yards passing in the first half, when the Eagles took a 21-10 lead. He hadn't surpassed 200 yards passing in any of the previous three games, mainly because the Eagles were so successful running the ball.
After Smith's opening drive TD, the Titans answered with a 25-yard touchdown pass from Ryan Tannehill to rookie Treylon Burks, the player the Titans used with the Eagles' first-round pick when Tennessee traded Brown to the Eagles last April.Then Brown's TD with 13:55 left in the first half put the Eagles back in front by a touchdown. Hurts ran the ball in from the Titans' 2 to make it 21-10 with 51 seconds left in the half.
