It's the regular season's penultimate week. Which means, just like so many great TV shows you've been binging during the pandemic, it could be the best one of the season.

Eagles

With Carson Wentz playing like the worst quarterback in the NFL, he was understandably benched and replaced by a second round rookie, Jalen Hurts, who played pretty good. Wentz then, instead of welcoming the challenge to compete to start next spring, reportedly said he would not be a back up and wanted to be traded. It's 'The Real Quarterbacks of Philadelphia.'

The NFL is reaching its stretch run, and several teams like the Eagles are starting to turn their attention toward 2021 as the haves and have nots are sheering apart with Week 14 in the NFL in full swing.

Say what you want about Dave Dombrowski, the man expected to be named the Phillies next president of baseball operations — he's been successful in that position around the league despite his lacking in the same star power that had everyone drooling over Theo Epstein — but the Phillies finally got something right.

The Phillies offseason so far, much like the last few seasons on the field, as been filled with disappointment, confusion and frustration.
