The Eagles jumped to a 10-0 lead in the first quarter on a 30-yard field goal from Jake Elliott and Hurts' 36-yard TD pass to Smith.

Hurts found Smith again in the end zone for a 5-yard score with 3:07 left in the second quarter.

Hurts drove Philadelphia to the 34-yard line before Elliott's 51-yard field goal made it 20-10 at halftime.
The Eagles blocked a 22-yard field-goal attempt in the third quarter, but McManus hit from 28 yards out later in the period to make it 20-13.
Denver intercepted Hurts on the next Philadelphia possession and drove to the Eagles' 23 with a chance to tie the game. Gordon gained a yard on a fourth-and-1 but fumbled, and Slay returned it 83 yards for a score and a 27-13 lead as time expired in the third.
The Broncos punted on the ensuing possession, and the Eagles extended the lead with a 23-yard field goal midway through the fourth quarter.
