NFL Week 2 odds: Eagles open as big road favorites against Titans
The way I’d frame the Philadelphia Eagles’ Week 1 win over the Washington Commanders? I’d say it’s a performance to build on. The offense as a collective clearly needs to be better.

Welcome to The Linc, the daily Philadelphia Eagles links roundup at Bleeding Green Nation! Here’s where I’m at with Jalen Hurts: I’m not worried about the bottom dropping out with him.
