Joshua Weru also chipped in a sack in the losing effort for the Eagles.
I’m on the Eagles in this one. I just feel like the Eagles have stronger depth at the QB position and despite the 0-2 record, I’ve been impressed with what I saw from Philly so far in the preseason defensively. I think this is an Eagles spot to get a win to close out the preseason, so give me Philadelphia here.
