Sunday in Philadelphia, the undefeated Eagles (4-0) host the Denver Broncos (2-2). It is a matchup that will be a measuring stick for each club and specifically each’s offense.
To date, the Eagles have been stout overall defensively (allowing 22pts/gm) but clunky (yet efficient) on offense. Jalen Hurts is averaging just 138 yards passing (last in the league) and Saquon Barkley and his fellow backs are averaging just 3.5 yards per carry (fourth-worst in the NFL). But all is not doom and gloom in the City of Brotherly Love as the Eagles are averaging 27 points per game (7th in the NFL).
Meanwhile, the Broncos are even stingier on defense the Philly with opponents averaging a mere 16.8 points per game. Denver has allowed opponents to cross the goal line just four times through their first four games. The offense, though, has yet to reach the heights imagined by Head Coach Sean Payton. Bo Nix is averaging a little over 211 yards passing per game and J.K. Dobbins is coming off his first 100-yard game rushing as a member of the Broncos. The hope in Denver is the offense is starting to get on track and will improve on its current average of 22 points per game.
Specific to Sunday’s game, if Denver wants to leave Lincoln Financial Field with a win, they’ll need to limit mistakes and impose their will early. Expect a physical, tightly contested affair in what could well end up being a statement game for these teams.
Last week, the Broncos throttled an undermanned Cincinnati squad, 28-3. The Eagles outlasted the Buccaneers in Tampa Bay, 31-25.
