But the Packers could never catch up once the Eagles took the lead for good at the end of the first half, mainly because the Packers couldn’t stop the Eagles’ running attack.
Hurts was still effective passing the ball, completing 16 of 28 passes for 153 yards and 2 touchdowns. In all, Hurts accounted for 310 yards.
It doesn’t matter how it gets done, as long as it gets done.
Hurts ran, not passed, for 102 yards in the first quarter alone.
He was at 145 yards after three quarters, breaking the team record for rushing yards by an Eagles quarterback set by Michael Vick with 130 yards in a Dec. 2010 game against the Giants.
