DeVonta Smith contributed significantly in the passing game, racking up 71 receiving yards. The Eagles’ offense was efficient and relentless, creating scoring opportunities that kept the Buccaneers on their heels throughout the game.
Defensively, the Eagles made key plays to secure their victory, highlighted by Quinyon Mitchell's interception that turned the tide in the second half.
