The Philadelphia Eagles have been riddled with injuries on offense. They've gotten off to a 1-2 start this season. They need Carson Wentz to transcend their limitations. Nonetheless, the Eagles will have a quick turnaround as they prepare to face the undefeated Green Bay Packers on Thursday Night Football.

The player who is set to have a big-time performance against the Packers on Thursday night is Carson Wentz. He has dealt with a depleted receiving corps in recent weeks, but that hasn't completely slowed him down.

After losing to the Detroit Lions this past Sunday, Wentz has combined to throw for 803 yards, six touchdowns, and two interceptions this season. Those numbers aren't too shabby considering he's been without DeSean Jackson and Alshon Jeffery for the past two weeks.

As a result, the fearless quarterback has been inclined to target both Zach Ertz and Nelson Agholor more often. Also, with the loss of Jackson, Wentz hasn't had a go-to option deep down the field.

Despite all of the hindrances he has faced, all signs point to Wentz having a formidable outing against the Packers in Week 4. The Eagles' franchise quarterback is desperate to secure a win to avoid falling to 1-3 to begin the season.

Getting a victory on Thursday is even more important when you consider that the Dallas Cowboys are rolling through the teams they are facing. Therefore, Wentz is going to be extra motivated to rally the team behind him against a stingy Packers defense.

Over the course of his first three seasons in the NFL, Wentz has fared well in night games. Furthermore, by looking at his numbers, the fourth-year quarterback seems to relish playing in such games.

In a short sample size of three games on Thursday night, Wentz has thrown for 652 yards, seven touchdowns, and an interception. Above all, the agile quarterback has won all three games that have fallen on a Thursday night in his career.

Yes, the Packers are vastly improved on defense and Aaron Rodgers is under center on the other side. That's not going to stop Doug Pederson's squad from giving its all to elude a dreaded 1-3 record.

Among everyone, Wentz knows he has to perform at an elite level if Philadelphia wants to complete the upset. Nevertheless, expect to see a vintage game from the Eagles' franchise quarterback on national television on Thursday.
