While the Eagles offense as a whole failed to impress against the Chargers, Hurts grabbed attention for throwing a career-high four interceptions and causing five turnovers.

Hurts also made history after causing two turnovers in the same play in the second quarter. Former Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce gave his verdict on the quarterback's performance ahead of their clash against the Las Vegas Raiders.

"I'll tell you this, watching the game, incredibly frustrating," Kelce said. "I was like losing my mind in the production truck and upstairs watching the game as it unfolded. Because they continually killed themselves with interceptions and penalties and turnovers and things like that.

The Eagles quarterback has been going through a slump over the last few weeks and Hurts' Week 14 performance has not done him any favors.

Eagles coach Nick Sirianni rubbishes calls of benching Jalen Hurts after disastrous outing

Amid Jalen Hurts' offensive struggles, calls of benching the reigning Super Bowl MVP has grown louder among fans. However, Eagles coach Nick Sirianni downplayed any such thoughts ahead of their Week 15 clash against the Raiders.

“I think that’s ridiculous,” Sirianni said. “I know every time I go out on that field with Jalen Hurts as our quarterback, we have a chance to win the game.
"That’s something that’s been proven. We’ve won a lot of football games. This is the most ultimate team game. You win together as a team, you lose together as a team. It’s never just one thing.”

With three consecutive losses, the Eagles have dropped to an 8-5 record but are still in pole position to second straight NFC East title. Eagles would become the first NFC East team to go back-to-back division titles since 2004.
