The NFL is consistently inconsistent. Predictability can go out the window at any time.
That’s being demonstrated in Philadelphia on Sunday as the Eagles have soared to a 17-0 lead over the New Orleans Saints.
The most recent score came when Miles Sanders took off and went 82 yards to the end zone.
