CINCINNATI — Jalen Hurts ran for three touchdowns and threw for another as the Philadelphia Eagles ran away from the Cincinnati Bengals 37-17 on Sunday afternoon.

Hurts finished 16-of-20 passing for 236 yards as the Eagles (5-2) won their third straight. Saquon Barkley eclipsed the 100-yard rushing mark for the second straight game and fourth time this season, finishing with 108 yards on 22 carries.

It was the first win in six visits to Cincinnati for the Eagles, while the Bengals (3-5) fell to 0-4 this season at home.

Cincinnati quarterback Joe Burrow was held to 234 yards on 26-of-37 passing with one touchdown pass and an interception.

The Bengals did not have their second-leading receiver on the field for the game as Tee Higgins was scratched with a quadriceps injury. It was the third game Higgins has missed this season after not playing in the first two weeks due to a hamstring issue.

The Bengals converted all five of their third downs on their opening 17-play, 70-yard drive, which took 10 minutes off the clock was capped by a 2-yard scoring toss from Burrow to Ja’Marr Chase.

The Eagles tied the game at 10 just before the half when replay ruled Hurts scored on a “Tush Push” from the Cincinnati 1 with 22 seconds remaining in the half.

The Eagles then took the opening drive of the second half and marched 70 yards in eight plays, with Hurts running 7 yards around the right end for his second rushing touchdown and a 17-10 Philadelphia lead.

After the Bengals tied the game on a 4-yard Chase Brown touchdown run, the Eagles answered with a quick strike when Hurts lofted a pass 45 yards for DeVonta Smith, who beat safety Jordan Battle in the end zone for the touchdown and a 24-17 lead.

The Eagles then stopped the Bengals with 45 seconds left in the third quarter on fourth-and-1 from Cincinnati’s own 39 when Ja’Marr Chase was caught for a 2-yard loss on a swing pass. The Eagles outscored the Bengals 13-0 from that point to put the game away.

The Bengals suffered a akey offensive injury in the second quarter when starting left tackle Orlando Brown Jr. left with a right knee injury and did not return. It was the second straight week Brown left with an injured right knee and didn’t return.

The Eagles lost starting corner Darius Slay, a six-time Pro Bowl selection and 2017 All-Pro, to a groin injury midway through the third quarter.
