After coming off of a tough loss last week, which Philadelphia Eagles are key to a bounce-back victory against the Indianapolis Colts?

Last week gave the Philadelphia Eagles got a feeling they haven’t had in a very long time. Losing was rare in 2017, and the Eagles were finally defeated in a regular season game for the first time since last December. In case you were wondering how it feels, it’s quite unsettling. Eagles fans have been spoiled and the feeling of losing affects the fanbase a lot more nowadays.

It’s going to be okay though, fortunately. It was just week two, and although the Eagles should be able to beat the Tampa Bay Buccaneers while at full strength, a loss to them is not as bad as it feels. One, the Eagles could use a little reality check after winning so much last year. And two, don’t forget that the Eagles lost during the second week of the season last year either. It’s going to be just fine.

We’re all moving on though from last week. Now, it’s time for the Eagles to shift their attention to week three as the Indianapolis Colts come to town. Currently, the Eagles are the clear favorites at home, as they always should be for the remainder of the season.

This weeks matchup is favorable, but it’s no walk in the park. Once again, the Eagles will be without a few key pieces on offense, so it could very well be another low-scoring matchup. The score means nothing in the end though if it’s an Eagles victory. For the Birds to go 2-1 on the season, which players need to step up?
