This past week saw Wentz complete 23-of-31 passes for 302 yards and two touchdowns in a 34-3 win over Pittsburgh. He’s now gone 102 pass attempts without throwing an interception on the season.
As a team, Philadelphia has benefited a great deal from Wentz’s early-season performance.
It heads into a Week 4 bye with a perfect 3-0 record and ranks second in the NFL in scoring at 30.7 points per game.
