CARSON WENTZ did not drive the Eagles down the field in the closing moments of the fourth quarter for a game-winning score.
He did not have to.
After the Atlanta Falcons had turned the ball over on downs on their own 39-yard line with a little more than two minutes remaining, Wentz handed the ball off three straight times to running back Wendell Smallwood.
The rookie from the University of West Virginia gained eight yards and just as importantly, forced the Falcons to burn their three timeouts.
