NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Jalen Hurts had the last word after the Philadelphia Eagles' 24-20 comeback victory over the Tennessee Titans on Sunday. Following the win, Titans defensive tackle Jeffery Simmons approached Hurts for a postgame exchange. "You started that s---", Hurts said with a smile. "I had to finish it." The comment referenced Simmons' pregame remarks about forcing Hurts to "be a QB" by keeping him in the pocket.

Hurts backed up his talk by engineering a nine-play, 65-yard game-winning drive capped by a 3-yard touchdown pass to Darius Cooper with nine seconds remaining. It was Cooper's first NFL touchdown and Hurts' first career go-ahead passing score in the final minute of regulation or overtime. Hurts went 5-of-7 on the drive, including a key 19-yard strike to DeVonta Smith on third-and-6.

The Eagles overcame two Hurts interceptions, a sluggish offense missing Saquon Barkley, Dallas Goedert, and Landon Dickerson, and a late Titans field goal. "He didn't flinch," Smith said. "It's a sense of belief... I know he's going to go down and lead us." Hurts finished 26-of-37 for 264 yards with two touchdowns and two interceptions, improving to 59-25 as a starter. Simmons clarified postgame his comments weren't a shot at Hurts, a Super Bowl MVP, but a strategic observation.
