PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- The Philadelphia Eagles host the Minnesota Vikings in the home opener Thursday at the Linc, hoping to put forth a better showing after a close call in Week 1.

  • 1st down: The Eagles didn't look sharp on offense and allowed a big day passing from Mac Jones on Sunday. To what do you attribute the shaky opening-week performance?

  • 2nd Down: Sean Desai's defense made plays when it needed to but it wasn't the dominant effort we saw last year. How can the Eagles clean things up on a short week and with Justin Jefferson, arguably the best WR in the game, coming to town?

  • 3rd down: What are the Vikings' biggest weaknesses on offense and defense and how might Coach Nick Sirianni exploit them?
