It's 1:08 in the morning and Carson Wentz, Zach Ertz & Jason Kelce just left the field after staying a long time outside in the rain talking. Have to wonder if they sense this could be the last time they are all together on the same team.

The Eagles are 12 sacks away from breaking the NFL record for sacks in a season set by the 1984 Chicago Bears (72). It's weird because 12 is a lot to get in two games but they have had 6+ sacks in their last three games (Giants (7), Bears (6), and Cowboys (6)).
