The Philadelphia Eagles have surprisingly found a way to win their last four regular-season games to finish 9-7 and win the NFC East.
Quarterback Carson Wentz deserves a lot of credit for carrying the Eagles offense even with all the injuries they've suffered from in the season. Wentz will at last, get his chance to make his very own part in the Philadelphia Eagles history books, making his first postseason start after injuries ended his last two seasons.
Here are a few bold predictions for Carson Wentz in his playoff debut against the Seatle Seahawks.
Carson Wentz will finish off with over 300 passing yards
Wentz has been putting up some of his best numbers in his career. In the last four weeks, Wentz has been averaging 300 passing yards and a 100.8 passer rating. In his first outing with the Seahawks back in Week 11, Wentz completed 33 of his 45 pass attempts and finished with 256 yards. Wentz should easily reach 300 passing yards now knowing what to expect from the Seahawks defense.
Carson Wentz will throw for 4 touchdowns
The Seahawks defense has been struggling the past five games allowing the ninth-most points in the NFL. Wentz hasn't thrown for more than three touchdowns yet this season, but he has been on a hot streak these past five weeks winning four out of five.
During Wentz's sophomore season, he threw for 33 touchdowns and was ranked second in the NFL despite his season-ending injury. Wentz also held the fourth-best passer rating that year. Maybe we'll see the same Wentz in his playoff debut.
Carson Wentz will earn his first career playoff win
Seahawks beating the Eagles already this season doesn't mean they can do it again. The Eagles have won four straight and six of nine to surpass Dallas in the NFC East. Quarterback Carson Wentz has powered the offense, completing the season by finishing 388-of-607 pass attempts for 4,039 yards and 27 touchdowns. Wentz has thrown 10 TDs in the course of the last five games.
It was just two seasons ago when Wentz was playing at an MVP level before a torn ACL ended his season after 13 games. In the 13 games Wentz played in, he drove the Eagles to an 11-2 record and threw for 3,296 yards, an astonishing 33 touchdowns, and only seven interceptions.
The Seahawks are seeking to get their first playoff win in nearly four years when they play the Eagles Sunday afternoon. They are currently on a two-game losing streak.
