Eagles winners and losers for the first quarter of the season

The Eagles are one quarter of the way through the 2017 season. Like in 2016, they’re in first place at 3-1, and without one of their key players. But this year has a completely different feeling. It’s a good time to take stock of whose stock is up and whose is down.

There’s not much more that can be said about Wentz this season that wasn’t said yesterday. But here’s a bit more: Wentz has progressed in virtually every facet of his game. He’s seeing the field better, he’s using all of the field, his accuracy has improved, his mechanics have improved, his turnover rate has improved, he has an even firmer grasp of the playbook and more freedom with it, and he continues to make plays with his legs that few QBs can.
