Week 4 of the NFL season began with a clash of titans on Thursday night as the Philadelphia Eagles emerged victorious against the Miami Dolphins in a 28-24 thriller at Hard Rock Stadium. The game showcased two of the league’s top offenses in a back-and-forth contest that kept fans guessing until the final whistle. The Eagles’ dynamic quarterback, Jalen Hurts, shone under the primetime lights, throwing for three touchdowns and rushing for 68 yards to lead his team to a critical road victory.
The Dolphins, despite their loss, displayed flashes of brilliance. Tua Tagovailoa passed for an impressive 310 yards and connected with Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle for touchdowns. However, a fourth-quarter interception by Eagles cornerback Darius Slay proved to be the turning point of the game. With under two minutes remaining, the Eagles’ defense stiffened, stopping the Dolphins on a potential game-winning drive.
Philadelphia’s offensive line also played a pivotal role, providing Hurts with ample time in the pocket and neutralizing Miami’s defensive pressure. Meanwhile, Miami struggled to establish a consistent running game, which allowed the Eagles to focus on shutting down their aerial attack.
The victory improves the Eagles’ record to 3-1, solidifying their position atop the NFC East. The Dolphins, now 2-2, are left to regroup as they prepare for a divisional matchup next week. Fans are already speculating that these two teams could meet again in the postseason, setting the stage for what could be one of the most exciting rivalries of the year.
