The Philadelphia Eagles needed a stellar performance from the defense to pull out a 10-7 win over the Green Bay Packers in Week 10.
Philly's defense allowed just 261 yards and created two turnovers in the game. The offense was a different story as they struggled to find any consistency.
While most of the stars came from the defense, there were some stellar plays made by the offense that helped the Birds go to 7-2 on the season.
Winner: Jalyx Hunt, EDGE
A little competition came into Philly, and all of a sudden, Hunt is having one of the best games of his career. He finished the game with five tackles, two tackles for loss, one quarterback hit, and one sack. Everyone will talk about Jaelan Phillips, but Hunt deserves some love for his performance.
Loser: Tyler Steen, RG
It's already been a very average season for Steen, but the Packers' defensive line had its way with him. Multiple times, they got pressure on Hurts and forced him out of the pocket and hit Saquon Barkley in the backfield. The first-year starter struggled after losing Lane Johnson on his right.
Winner: DeVonta Smith, WR
Not many offensive players on the Eagles deserve credit for good performances, but Smith made the biggest play of the game for the Eagles. His 36-yard touchdown in the fourth quarter helped turn the game around for Philly. He finished with four receptions for 69 yards and one score, just another reminder that maybe Eagles fans should consider Smith the number one receiver on the team.
Loser: Kevin Patullo, OC
All the great stuff Patullo did in the New York Giants' Week 8 game went out the window. Three times he has third and longs and run a draw instead of taking a shot to Smith or A.J. Brown. The running game was stagnant, and the offense was inconsistent throughout the game. Patullo will be facing some heat once again.

Winner: Quinyon Mitchell, CB
Two really solid pass deflections and a full four quarters of tight coverage, Mitchell proved once again that he is about as good a defender in the NFL as they get. He also had two tackles in the game, but the Packers could not get the passing game going at all—major credit to Mitchell, who is hopefully on his way to his first Pro Bowl selection.
