13. Wentz stands in the pocket, takes a shot and throws a perfect touchdown pass.

What can be said about eluding a pass rush, standing in the pocket and delivering a perfect pass to Corey Clement while being smacked (and you knew you were about to take a tremendous amount of punishment)? Exactly. There’s nothing that you can say.

Carson Wentz did it all on this play.

14. Wentz channels his inner-Harry Houdini.

It will be a long time before Eagles fans forget Wentz’s escape act. A would-be Redskins sack, instead, turns into a 26-yard dash by the man who may someday be seen as the greatest quarterback in Eagles history.

Don’t you dare say that you can’t see the potential.

15 For the second time in two weeks, Fletcher Cox forces an interception off of a deflection.

At this point, it became clear that Cox was definitely feeling better. of a Kirk Cousins pass attempt. You’ve got to love the big guy.

16. Jalen Mills gets an interception and then hits every button on the game controller.

Tell the truth. When Jalen Mills picked off C.J. Beathard (who was supposed to be taking care of the football late in the second quarter), you just knew that he was going to score. Didn’t you? Mills’ interception and dance to the end zone made highlight reels and made everyone who’s ever played Madden 18 very proud. The juke, spin and dive were all on display in this one.

Take a look.

It appears that all of that talk about Mills having second-round talent wasn’t totally inaccurate.
