Sanders burst 65 yards to the house early in the third to make it 17-7, the longest touchdown run by an Eagles rookie since LeSean McCoy in 2009. It was reminiscent of the 176 yards they racked up in their other road victory, handing the 6-1 Packers their only loss. So it’s sheer conjecture knowing what to expect when these straight road games are countered by three straight home games against the Bears, Tom Brady and the unbeaten Patriots in their first encounter since Super Bowl LII and Seahawks. Of course, while fans and Forbes.com contributors are permitted to look ahead, Wentz, Fletcher Cox & Co. think only short term. Even at the midway point, though, it looks like they’d better win the Division if they hope to get into the playoffs.
