There’s no question that the biggest storyline coming out of Monday night’s impressive win over the division-rival Washington Redskins was the play of quarterback Carson Wentz. The NFL leader in touchdown passes with 17 threw four against Washington, and became the first Eagle since 1953 to throw at least three touchdown passes in three straight weeks. He’s the youngest passer to throw at least 17 touchdowns with only four interceptions or fewer to start a season since 23-year-old Dan Marino (a former teammate of Doug Pederson) did it in 1984.
The superlatives are flowing for the star quarterback, and for good reason.
