Undefeated Eagles remain work in progress following tough overtime win over Commanders

For the first month of the season, the Eagles have followed each victory with a vow that they are still a work in progress.

This victory won't change that narrative, or the fretting of Eagles fans, or the -- almost certainly correct -- confidence among some that everything is going to be just fine, so fine that a traffic jam is a viable alternative to waiting for the Eagles to win.

Most of the concern until Sunday was centered around Jalen Hurts, and the sputtering start to the passing game.

Worry no more, Hurts threw for 319 yards, two touchdown and no interceptions.

This was the best defensive front the Eagles had faced and they still ran for 104 yards.

Even on Sunday, the Eagles had to be patient before the offense opened up, with Hurts starting the day with short passes on the opening drive and then hitting A.J.

Brown on a 59-yard bomb and again for a 28-yard touchdown in the third quarter.
