ABOUT THE EAGLES
• The Eagles (3-2) fell behind 14-0, eventually allowed 230 rushing yards and lost 27-20 to the Redskins last week in Washington.
• Rookie QB Carson Wentz was sacked five times in the Eagles' first game without right tackle Lane Johnson, who is serving a 10-game suspension.
• Philadelphia traded five draft picks to Cleveland for the No. 2 overall pick to select Wentz this spring.
• Halapoulivaati Vaitai, a rookie fifth-round pick, is expected to start again at right tackle.
• The Eagles take care of the football, trailing only the Vikings (zero) for the fewest offensive turnovers (two) through six weeks.
• Defense has been uneven under first-year coordinator Jim Schwartz. The Eagles are strong against the pass, rank third in points allowed per game (15.6), yet they're statistically one of the worst against the run by allowing 4.8 yards per carry.
PLAYER SPEAK: QB Carson Wentz
• Wentz, a Bismarck, N.D. native and North Dakota State product, became the Eagles' starter when Sam Bradford was traded to Minnesota in September.
• Through five games, Wentz has completed 65 percent of his passes for 1,186 yards and seven touchdowns with one interception.
