Not necessarily that they won, but how they won.
Remember, the Birds were 3.5-point underdogs on the road but delivered a 26-point shellacking, their most lopsided margin of victory since the NFC Championship Game in 2018!
Last week I posed a bunch of questions about this team. There were so many unknowns going into the season.
In one game, how many were answered?
3 and Out: Jaws on Sirianni's brilliance, 49ers preview, prediction
First, is Jalen Hurts up to the task of leading this football team?
I think you can say absolutely.
He was the fifth-highest performing quarterback in fantasy football last week, going 27 for 35, for 264 yards, and 3 touchdowns, along with 62 yards on the ground.
More importantly? No turnovers.
What will a Nick Sirianni coached team look like?
Well, we learned, they'll play hard, and have a ton of energy, just like their coach.
What's a successful season?
Well, if it is wins and losses, the Birds are well on their way.
By beating the 49ers on Sunday, they'd start the season 2-0 for the first time since 2016.
So what questions are left?
Well here's my biggie - was it beginners luck? Or is THIS who the Eagles really are?
