GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) – The Philadelphia Eagles are a .500 team at the one-quarter mark of their NFL schedule after handing the Green Bay Packers their first loss of the season.  Nigel Bradham picked off Aaron Rodgers’ pass in the end zone with 20 seconds left to secure the Eagles’ 34-27 win over the Packers at Lambeau Field. Jordan Howard gashed Green Bay for his second career three-touchdown game as Philadelphia ended a two-game skid.  Howard finished with 15 carries for 87 yards with two touchdowns rushing and one receiving. Carson Wentz went 16 for 27 for 160 yards, three scores and no turnovers in helping the 2-2 Eagles drop the Packers to 3-1.  Rodgers completed his first 10 passes and finished 34 for 53 for 422 yards, two touchdowns and a fumble that set up a short Philadelphia scoring drive. Davante Adams had a career-high 180 yards on 10 catches before a toe injury kept him off the field for Green Bay’s final drive.
