Philadelphia has the talent to be something special this season. Some even predicted that they could be a dark-horse Super Bowl contender.
It will be interesting to see how this team comes out in Week 2 after a very disappointing loss. They will find out exactly what they’re made of.
Here are four bold predictions for the Eagles in Week 2.
4. The Eagles Force Four Turnovers
On the defensive side of the football, the Eagles have to make some plays. To beat the Rams, they will need to put pressure on Goff and take advantage of his missed throws. Whether they force interceptions or force fumbles, the Eagles will take the ball away four times this week.
3. Miles Sanders Comes Back With A Bang
Last season as a rookie, Sanders made a big impact on the Eagles with 179 carries for 818 yards and three touchdowns to go along with 50 receptions for 509 yards and three scores. Sanders will return in Week 2 with a big-time performance. He will tear up the Rams’ defense for 100 rushing yards and a touchdown and five receptions for 50 yards.
2. Philadelphia Sees Glimpses Of The Old DeSean Jackson
As the season moves forward, the Eagles are hoping to get the old DeSean Jackson back. He caught just two passes for 46 yards on seven targets last week. Jackson will show glimpses of his old self against the Rams with six receptions for 90 yards and two touchdowns.
1. A Big-Time Convincing Win For The Eagles
Finally, the Eagles are going to come away with a big-time win over the Rams. Wentz and company will jump on the Rams early in the game and won’t look back. Not only will the Eagles win, they will win in convincing fashion.
We are predicting that the final score for this game will be 35-24 in favor of the Eagles.
