Are Man City’s rivals convincing? Can we assess Tottenham? Was Garnacho a ‘moment’? – The Briefing
Welcome to The Briefing, where every Monday during this season The Athletic will discuss three of the biggest questions to arise from the weekend’s football.
This was the weekend when Newcastle made short work of Chelsea, Brighton got their first league win since September, Luton moved clear of the bottom three and West Ham left it late to beat Burnley.
Here we ask how good any of the title contenders really are, whether we can draw any conclusions about Tottenham and explain why Alejandro Garnacho’s overhead kick was more than just a goal…

Jalen Hurts has five-TD game in OT thriller while Ravens keep soaring: Everything to know about Week 12’s Sunday NFL games
It has become a trope from Bill Belichick during his storied run with the New England Patriots and, if the legendary head coach’s sage wisdom is to be followed, the 2023 NFL season has only just begun.
The remaining few weeks of the current campaign will separate the wheat from the chaff and show who’s a Super Bowl contender and who is not.
Without further ado, here’s everything you need to know about Week 12’s Sunday games.
Putting a Hurts on the Bills
Jalen Hurts’ breakthrough 2022 season ended in heartbreak as the Philadelphia Eagles fell agonizingly short from achieving the ultimate glory with a 38-35 loss in Super Bowl LVII to the Kansas City Chiefs.
But the 25-year-old quarterback and the rest of the Eagles squad have attacked the new year and their 2023 opponents with energy renewed as they look to overcome that final hurdle.
Week 12 brought the team’s most thrilling performance of the season so far, with Hurts leading the way with five touchdowns as the Eagles beat the Buffalo Bills 37-34 in overtime.
Despite seemingly troubled by a knee injury throughout the game, Hurts’ 12-yard touchdown run in the extra period clinched the impressive victory and was the exclamation point on an already statement performance.
It was the complete display from Hurts, whose dual-threat ability was laid bare for all to see. He displayed his accuracy throwing the ball with three passing touchdowns – one apiece to DeVonta Smith, AJ Brown and Olamide Zaccheaus – while also running two more into the endzone, including the walk-off score in OT.
Although he has arguably not reached the lofty heights he did last season – where he narrowly missed out on the NFL’s Most Valuable Player award to Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes – Sunday’s performance highlights Hurts still has the skillset to lead his team to the promised land.
“He made a lot of really clutch plays in that second half and then, you know, the big one, obviously at the end right there,” Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni told reporters afterwards. “We did a great job of blocking up front, and Jalen got himself through there for a touchdown in a clutch moment.
“Man, what you learn about him. I don’t think it’s anything you learn about him because you know that he’s clutch. He’s been clutch for us and clutch for this city and clutch for this team for the past three years now, so you know, he just kept going and put his head down and worked and made some big-time plays at the end.”
Hurts’ five-touchdown performance was the first time he has reached that mark in a single game in his four-year NFL career.
It was Hurts’ 11th career game with multiple rushing touchdowns, breaking a tie with Cam Newton for the most such games by a quarterback in NFL history, according to the NFL.

And he needed to be on his best to claim the victory, with his opposite number – Josh Allen – also showing up on the big stage.
The Bills quarterback finished with 339 passing yards, two touchdowns through the air as well as 81 yards and two touchdowns on the ground.
But after Allen had led a 12-play, 53-yard overtime drive which ended in a Tyler Bass field goal to give the Bills a three-point lead, Hurts went one step further as he helped orchestrate a nine-play, 75-yard game-winning drive capped off by that game-winning touchdown run.
The win pushed the Eagles to a league-best record of 10-1 and, in doing so, Hurts became the second quarterback with more than 10 wins over his team’s first 11 games in back-to-back seasons since 1950. The only other player to reach that milestone is Hall of Famer Peyton Manning in 2005-06, according to the NFL.
“We just continue to find ways to win,” Hurts said afterwards. “We continue to find ways to win. We play together. We’ve shown our resiliency day in and day out. Game in and game out. We’ve been challenged in a number of different ways. We always find a way, you know?”
