Philadelphia Eagles, Dallas Cowboys: 4 bold predictions for Week 16

What might the Philadelphia Eagles’ rookie quarterback have up his sleeve?

 1. Jalen Hurts will again produce 400 yards of total offense. 

This rookie quarterback that everyone is talking about has done nothing but exceed expectations. Dallas’ defense is still towards the bottom of the league, especially in run defense, so let’s just be blunt, Jalen Hurts represents a large problem for the Cowboys to handle.

Thanks to his ability to escape the pocket, he should have plenty of opportunities to move the chains and help buy his receivers more time to get open. He should easily have a repeat performance of what he did one week ago.

2. The Philadelphia Eagles defensive front will have four or more sacks.

The Cowboys offensive line has had many issues keeping a clean pocket. Fletcher Cox and company will be looking to get quarterback Andy Dalton as quickly as possible, but unlike Hurts, Dalton lacks the ability to elude pressure and buy time.

With there being no concerns about Dalton’s ability to extend plays, Philly’s defensive front should be able to hit home with some regularity. Four sacks sound about right. Don’t be surprised if fans see some ‘Nascar packages’ (where an extra defensive end typically lines up at the defensive tackle position) in an attempt to throw Dalton off of his game.
