The 2022 NFL season is through the first eight weeks and the Philadelphia Eagles showed just how dangerous they could be in their win over the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts has an arsenal of weapons he can turn to at any time to put on a big performance. Hurts had four touchdown passes, including three to A.J. Brown, in the win. While the team sits on top going into Week 9, plenty of competition abounds in their own conference.
The NFC East is as tough as ever with the Dallas Cowboys and New York Giants both sitting at six wins while the Atlanta Falcons and Seattle Seahawks are entering Week 9 as leaders in their respective divisions.
In the AFC, the Buffalo Bills put on an offensive onslaught against the Green Bay Packers while the Baltimore Ravens claimed the AFC North lead with a win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
