Rookie Josh Adams had another good game, rushing for 53 yards on seven carries, including a 28-yard second-quarter touchdown run. He came into the game averaging 6.7 yards per carry on first down, and averaged 6.3 against the Saints. Because the game got out of hand so quickly, the Eagles ended up running the ball only 12 times.

Carson Wentz turned in the worst performance of his young career. His 31.9 passer rating, which included no TDs and three interceptions, was the lowest of his career. Tight end Zach Ertz, who entered the game with 75 receptions, was targeted just three times and had two catches for 15 yards.
