Philadelphia Eagles vs Dallas Cowboys: 10 Story lines to watch

3 of 5

3. Which Nick Foles will show up?

The question’s simple. Will the Eagles get the Nick Foles that showed up and threw four touchdown passes against the New York Giants, or will we see the guy who was mostly ineffective on a Christmas night version of Monday Night Football?

4. Can QB1 and Alshon Jeffery create some chemistry?

Newly extended Alshon Jeffery didn’t register a single catch against the Raiders. Not one. What’s worse is he was only targeted twice. The math is simple. For Foles and the Eagles offense to be successful, Jeffery will have to be figured into the offensive game plan. Period.

5. What happens if Nate Sudfeld shines?

The Eagles starters will play in Week 17. We know that. What we don’t know is how long they’ll play. That means Nate Sudfeld will see some in-game action. There’s a possibility Foles will struggle. There’s a possibility that Sudfeld, once he enters the game, won’t. Don’t expect a quarterback change if that’s exactly what happens though.
