Eagles’ defense makes pivotal plays to beat Buccaneers and stay undefeated

New York Times  

TAMPA, Fla. — Making a quick scan of the stands at Raymond James Stadium in between plays Monday, Jalen Carter spotted them. “That thing was nice,” teammate Brandon Graham said in the locker room following the Eagles’ 25-11 victory, and shortly after posting a replay of Carter’s play on his Instagram story. We all know that we are very talented and that we could go very far with this team we got right here, and now we just keep pushing every day to get better every day.” The fumble indeed shifted momentum back in the Eagles’ favor, and was among a series of pivotal plays provided by Carter and his defensive teammates as Philadelphia improved to 3-0. We don’t want them to get any further.” The Bucs called a run play — a handoff to White — and Davis and Carter led the push that overwhelmed Tampa Bay’s offensive line and swallowed up the running back 4 yards into the end zone for a safety. That’s what we all live for, anytime we can score points on the board and then get the ball back for the offense to score even more points.” The Eagles’ offensive players expressed gratitude for the backing of their game-changing defense, well aware that those contributions have eased pressure on them as they work to regain the effectiveness they believe they are capable of.
