Eagles offensive line was outstanding in pass protection, in screenshots

by Jimmy Kempski

Quarterback Carson Wentz has been the story of the Philadelphia Eagles' season so far (maybe even the biggest story in the NFL), and deservedly so. What he has done in his first three games as a rookie is far beyond what anyone could have reasonably expected of him. However, in the Week 3 game against the Pittsburgh Steelers, Wentz was right to point out that a big part of his success has been due to the play of his offensive line.

Handing out 10 awards from the Eagles-Steelers game

by Jimmy Kempski

In Week 1, the Eagles beat the lowly Cleveland Browns, and some folks understandably pointed out that they beat, you know, the Cleveland Browns. In Week 2, the Eagles easily handled the Chicago Bears, and once again, many weren't impressed, chalking up the blowout victory as yet another hallow triumph over a weak opponent. Now that the Eagles have boot-stomped the Pittsburgh Steelers, does that count as a legitimate win?

Expect Eagles WR Dorial Green-Beckham's role to increase

by Jimmy Kempski

When the Eagles traded for WR Dorial Green-Beckham, the intent was to let him learn the offense slowly, before being implemented fully into the offense. After being with the team for about five weeks, Green-Beckham is likely going to see more targets come his way, according to Doug Pederson.

Eagles vs. Steelers: Five matchups to watch

by Jimmy Kempski

The Philadelphia Eagles are 2-0, with their two wins being diminished by many since their first two opponents -- the Cleveland Browns and Chicago Bears -- aren't good teams. Welp... Now the Eagles will face a Pittsburgh Steelers team that has been to the playoffs eight times, had three Super Bowl appearances, and won two Super Bowls since they drafted Ben Roethlisberger in 2004.
