The Eagles were more than eager to move on from Week 2’s stunning loss to the Falcons, and they found themselves right back in the NFC South for Week 3’s matchup with the Saints. But when you lose like the Eagles did on Monday night, any win is going to have a sideline fired up — even the ugly wins.
After the Eagles scored all of their 15 points in the fourth quarter, they sealed the win with a Reed Blankenship interception. Again, the Eagles struggled for much of the game, but we could see just how pumped they were to leave the Superdome with a win.
Jalen Carter might have been a bit too pumped.

When New Orleans took the field on defense for that final possession, Carter and Saints safety Tyrann Mathieu could be seen going back and forth in a heated exchange. At one point, Nick Sirianni needed to intervene in an attempt to calm Carter down.
But hey, Carter had himself a monster game. He was in a position to talk to Mathieu.
