1. How will Wentz look under center?

With the way things have been for the Eagles on offense this season, one would think that a three-touchdown performance by Carson Wentz in Week 13 would result in a win over the Dolphins, which obviously wasn’t the case.

In a way, some Philadelphia fans have been unfair towards Wentz by putting a majority of the blame on the former first-round pick for the struggles on offense when in reality, it isn’t his fault.

Instead of blaming Wentz, maybe Eagles fans should focus on the fact that Howie Roseman failed to bring in additional help at wide receiver before the trade deadline or how he can’t control the injuries some of his teammates have been dealing with.

After finishing with a solid performance against the Dolphins, does Wentz have what it takes to come up big once again on Monday when facing the Giants to put Philadelphia in the best position possible to earn their sixth win of the year?

Even though Wentz shouldn’t feel the need to prove doubters wrongs since some of the struggles from this season aren’t entirely his fault as previously mentioned, but at least if he does, the Eagles will continue to keep things close with the Cowboys in the division race.
