Sunday Night Football should’ve been an absolute easy win for the Philadelphia Eagles, as they clearly had the best QB on that night. Unfortunately, he never really played like it.
The Philadelphia Eagles may be in first place in the NFC East, but quarterback Carson Wentz realizes how little that means in this year’s division.
“I’m not good enough,” Wentz said, via the News Journal. “I can be better. I know I will be.”
“Some of these shots down the field, I’m going to keep giving these guys chances and I can be better and put the ball in the right spot,” he added. “But I’m not going to change my aggressive mentality. We’re going to start connecting on some of those big plays.”
The fifth-year playmaker completed just 15 of 27 passes for 123 yards with two touchdowns and two interceptions. He fumbled twice and was sacked four times.
Cowboys rookie quarterback Ben DiNucci passed for a lackluster 180 yards and zero touchdowns.
On the season, Wentz is up to 15 turnovers, which is the most in the league. His 12 interceptions are already second-most in his five-year career behind the 14 he threw in 2016.
Wentz is on track to throw for 24 interceptions and 24 touchdowns.

The win lifted the Eagles to a 3-4-1 record to have sole possession of the top spot in the NFC East while the Cowboys dropped to a 2-6 record for the third seed in the same division.
