The Philadelphia Eagles are enjoying a golden era for their franchise. The reigning Super Bowl champions, led by general manager Howie Roseman and head coach Nick Sirianni, have built a dynamic offense that features superstars and a young defense that's among the league's best.
If there's one team that seems to have Philadelphia's number, though, it's been the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Since Jalen Hurts became the Eagles' starting quarterback, the Buccaneers have made a habit out of stealing games in the teams' matchups. However, in Week 4 of the 2025 season, Philadelphia flipped the script by holding on for a 31-25 victory that improved the squad to 4-0. Baker Mayfield and co. fell to 3-1 as their comeback attempt fell short.

Since Hurts took over as the Eagles' full-time starting quarterback in 2021, he has faced the Buccaneers six times, including the playoffs. With Philadelphia's Week 4 win over Tampa Bay, Hurts is now 2-4 all-time against the Bucs.
Tampa Bay has often proved to be a formidable opponent for Philadelphia, even for a Super Bowl squad that has made the playoffs in each of the last four seasons. Hurts' first game against the Buccaneers was in 2021, which was a 28-21 loss for the Eagles. Later in that season, it was Tampa Bay that sent Philadelphia home packing in the playoffs.
Hurts' squad beat the Buccaneers in the 2023 regular season, but when the teams met in the postseason once again, Tampa Bay eliminated Philadelphia in January 2024.
With Sunday's 31-25 victory that improved Philadelphia to 4-0 in its Super Bowl defense, Hurts helped snap his team's history of tough losses vs. the Bucs. Within the quarterback battle, Hurts is now 2-2 against Mayfield, with Tom Brady leading the other two Tampa Bay wins.
