by Jimmy Kempski

Prior to the start of the season, there were worries that the Eagles' perceived deficiencies at cornerback could potentially wreck the season, a fair concern at the time.

by Jimmy Kempski

The biggest reason for the Philadelphia Eagles' overwhelmingly surprising success this season has been the emergence of second year quarterback Carson Wentz. However, one of the other major reasons for the Eagles' 8-1 start has been the play of a lot of players who at one time were either afterthoughts or out of favor.
