1) Considering the injury to Carson Wentz, how can Philadelphia score enough points to keep up with Minnesota?

“Truthfully, since Wentz’s injury, the Eagles have seen a dip in production in just about every offensive category. That includes 3rd down conversions, points, and yards-per-game. I’m not even sure this is a matter of needing to keep up with Minnesota. Both of these teams have great defenses. Both of these teams can go on droughts offensively.

I’m expecting this to be an ugly game on both sides offensively. I expect to see both punters constantly. When it’s all said and done though, I expect to see a heavy dose of the Eagles running game. I expect to see a lot of run-pass options. Coach Pederson will do a lot of creative things to get Foles comfortable.”
