SUPER BOWL LII SUSPECTS?

by Andrew Flanagan

So far this season, the Eagles have been on the best winning streak in the NFL. And hopefully it stays that way! In fact, the last time they went 10-1 was 2004. Of course, Carson Wentz has been a huge part in this. Garrette Blount has helped the Eagles tremendously this season too. Many players like Agholor and Jeffery have improved, thankfully. Our defense is also the best it’s been in a long time. Now, back to Wentz. If it weren’t for his perfect throws and his running back like abilities, we definitely wouldn’t be where we are right now. So, is it enough to get the Eagles into the Super Bowl? In my opinion, yes. As long as they stay as one team and work together, they could Philadelphia Eagles Quarterback Carson Wentz even win. LET’S GO EAGLES!!!!!!!!!

Laika, part Siberian husky, was aboard the spacecraft called Sputnik 2 .
