Eagles-Cardinals In-Game Updates - PhiladelphiaEagles.com

The 4-0 Eagles were in Arizona to take on the Cardinals in Week 5. They entered the game as the ONLY remaining undefeated team in the NFL – last year, the Cardinals were the last remaining unbeaten team.

According to Eagles Insider Dave Spadaro, more than 30,000 Eagles fans filled the stands in a State Farm Stadium that holds 63,400. The win not only increased their win streak to 5, but ended a drought in Arizona; the Eagles had never won in the Cardinals' current arena before Sunday.

EAGLES STAT LEADERS

Rushing: Jalen Hurts, 61 yards and 2 touchdowns plus 26/36 passes for 239 yards

Receiving: Dallas Goedert, 9 catches for 95 yards

Defense: C.J. Gardner-Johnson, 10 tackles and 1 interception

FIRST QUARTER

• The Eagles won the toss and deferred to the second half.

• The Eagles' defense started off hot – Kyzir White forced Kyler Murray to throw the ball away on a third-down attempt, stifling the Cardinals' first drive.

• The Eagles' offense marched down the field in an 11-play 64-yard drive right to the end zone, highlighted by a pair of Jalen Hurts sneaks – one for a first down and one for the score. Dallas Goedert had two catches for 24 yards, while A.J. Brown added 32 yards on three receptions. New kicker Cameron Dicker sealed the deal with his first extra point as an Eagle. Philadelphia led 7-0 with 8:06 remaining in the first quarter.

• One injury to watch: Landon Dickerson is questionable to return with a leg injury. Sua Opeta went in at left guard. The Eagles entered the game without starting left tackle Jordan Mailata (shoulder), who was replaced by Jack Driscoll.

• The contingent of Eagles fans who traveled to Glendale had plenty to keep on cheering about – C.J. Gardner-Johnson intercepted Kyler Murray's pass intended for Marquise Brown, marking his first and the Eagles' sixth of the season.

• FANS GET A FROSTY! The Eagles held the Cardinals from reaching the end zone in the first quarter. The Cardinals have yet to score in the first quarter of any game this season.
