Philadelphia Eagles 34, Green Bay Packers 27

GREEN BAY, Wis. _ The Eagles beat the Green Bay Packers, 34-27, in a dramatic and entertaining game Thursday night at Lambeau Field.

Carson Wentz was 16-of-27 for 160 yards and 3 touchdowns. Jordan Howard ran 15 times for 87 yards and 2 scores. Zach Ertz was the leading receiver with 7 catches for 65 yards.

All of that was enough to overcome prolific nights for Packers star quarterback Aaron Rodgers and wide receiver Davante Adams. Rodgers was 34-of-53 for 422 yards and 2 touchdowns, and Adams caught 10 passes for a total of 180 yards.

Unfortunately, the win was marred by Avonte Maddox suffering a gruesome head injury. He had to be carted off the field.

The Eagles are now 2-2 on the season. It was the Packers' first loss of the season after a 3-0 start.
