The Eagles won a big primetime game against the Packers on the road, and they did it with a very balanced offensive game. Everything from Carson Wentz's efficient day of three touchdown passes helped guide Philadelphia to their win. One of those touchdowns went to running back Jordan Howard, who added another two touchdowns on the ground and 87 yards rushing as well.
It was a big game for the Philly running back. But the 24-year-old understands that he couldn't have done it without the help of his offensive line.
“I credit the offensive line. They did a great job. They made it easy for me. The holes were there and I just took them,” Howard said per the team's official website.
It goes without saying that the offensive line had a major part in getting the Eagles their offensive success. They came away without giving up a sack on Carson Wentz and gave the Eagles 176 rushing yards on 33 carries.
It was one of their most dominant games so far this season and shows the league just how good they are when the big uglies up front do their job.
It was all in a day's work as Jordan Howard came away with a big game. Howard earned the most rush yards by an Eagle since LeGarrette Blount in Week 12, 2017 (97) — the Eagles haven't had a 100-plus yard rusher since Blount in Week 4, 2017 (32 games — longest active streak in the NFL).
Howard also became the first visiting player in the Super Bowl era to score 2-plus rush TDs and one or more receiving TD at Lambeau Field.
