Drew Lock is such a G!
When “Monday Night Football” was nearing its end, it looked like the Philadelphia Eagles were on their way to a victory against the Seattle Seahawks.
However, the West Coast Birds had different plans as they completely shell-shocked their East Coast counterparts to get the 20-17 win — doing so on a Drew Lock-led game-winning drive to snap a four-game losing streak.

The Seahawks were in complete desperation mode when it came to getting a dub, needing a victory to keep them in the hunt for the postseason. Well, they ended up getting their chance to control their own destiny in this game, forcing the Eagles to punt the ball and giving the ball back to quarterback Drew Lock with 1:52 left on the lock — and a wide 92 yards to go in order to get into the end zone. Lock was starting for the second straight game for the injured Geno Smith.
In Seattle‘s final drive, the Eagles had their chances to intercept Lock and end the game, but Lock instead chalked their opportunities and marched Seattle down the field thanks to some absolute highlight reel plays from wide receiver DK Metcalf.

And then… It happened.
With the Seahawks near the red zone and threatening Philly, Lock stepped back for a throw and put up the most beautiful-looking 29-yard bomb right to rookie wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba for a touchdown, that both gave Seattle the 20-17 advantage and won me a ATTD (anytime touchdown) bet.

And then to close all this magic out, Drew Lock also proved he’s got some skills on the mic with a brilliant interview.
