Eagles overcome mistakes, failed gambles to stun Saints with late TD

The Philadelphia Eagles were on the verge of a second straight disappointing loss on Sunday.

But a big downfield play from Jalen Hurts to Dallas Goedert set up the second Saquon Barkley touchdown of the day to secure a 15-12 thriller over New Orelans.

The Saints took a late 12-7 lead on a Derek Carr touchdown pass to Chris Olave with 2:03 remaining. They then forced the Eagles into third-and-16 on the ensuing Philadelphia possession. But Jalen Hurts found Goedert for 61-yard gain on a crossing route.

Goedert rumbled down the left sideline to the four-yard line, setting up Saquon Barkley's second touchdown of the day with 55 seconds remaining.
