After a 12-5 record led to a first-round playoff exit last year, how soon is too soon to buy in to this year’s Cowboys?
The records speak loudly enough. The 5-0 Eagles remain the NFL’s only unbeaten team. Hurts has gone from erratic to brutally efficient as a passer, not to mention those six rushing touchdowns in the first five games. Philadelphia’s defense has been overhauled. The Eagles lead the NFL in turnover margin. A team that won free agency and the draft is reaping immediate benefits.
Now what about the Eagles’ opponents?
It’s not really even about Rush although his 5-0 record as a starter the last two seasons is record setting and remarkable.
