GREEN BAY, Wis. – The Green Bay Packers entered this Thanksgiving week thinking about turkey.
The Philadelphia Eagles are thinking about turnovers.
The Eagles, with an NFL-best 9-1 record headed into Sunday night’s game against the Packers, lead the league with a plus-12 turnover margin. That’s powered by a defense that is tied for No. 1 with 13 interceptions and is No. 1 overall with 21 takeaways.
“It’s a complete unit,” Packers coach Matt LaFleur said. “You look at every level of their defense, they’ve got star players.”
The defensive line borders on absurd. How about a four-man front of Robert Quinn, Brandon Graham, Ndamukong Suh and Milton Williams?
