The Philadelphia Eagles (1-0) are flying high while the Atlanta Falcons (0-1) struggle to get off the ground as the teams prepare to face off for the second Monday Night Football game of the season.
The Eagles should be well-rested for their home opener after beginning their season Sept. 6 in Sao Paolo, Brazil, with a victory against the Green Bay Packers in a rare Friday night game that also marked the first NFL game played in the Southern Hemisphere. Led by the dynamism of running back Saquon Barkley, the Eagles outlasted the Packers 34-29 despite a slow start and some sloppy mistakes that included two fumbles.
