The Philadelphia Eagles are still at it! The team won their fifth straight game to remain the only undefeated team in the league.
Philadelphia pulled off a 20-17 win against an Arizona Cardinals team that did not go down without a fight.
Led by safety C.J. Gardner-Johnson who had an interception and ten tackles in the contest, the Eagles defense was again magnificent in this one.

The main standouts on the receiving end for Philly included tight end Dallas Goedert, who finished the game with eight receptions for 95 yards; also joining the party was two-year pro-DeVonta Smith, who caught ten passes for 87 yards.
As for Arizona, they suffered three different injuries to the running back position in this one, including an injury to their starter, James Conner. Conner would leave the contest with a rib injury, and there are some question marks for his game status for their upcoming matchup against the Seattle Seahawks on the road in week six.
It was a tough ending for Arizona in this one as kicker Matt Ammendola missed a potential game-tying 43-yard field goal with just 20 seconds left in the ballgame.

The Eagles will look to stay unbeaten in week six as they play host to the red-hot Dallas Cowboys on Sunday Night Football in what should be a fascinating contest between the NFC East rivals.
