It just feels like this one has all the makings of a classic. There are storylines all over this one. The Philadelphia Eagles pack their bags and head north to Minneapolis to face the Minnesota Vikings at the site of their Super Bowl LII victory, US Bank Stadium.
You get Carson Wentz versus Kirk Cousins. You get the offensive-minded head coach, Doug Pederson, matching wits against the defensive-minded head coach, Mike Zimmer.
You get strength versus strength. The Eagles’ rushing defense gets all that they can handle versus Dalvin Cook and a team who wouldn’t love anything more than to pound the rock and have Cousins throw the ball five or six times.
