Summary:

Eagles rookie Carson Wentz became the first quarterback in NFL history to start 2-0 with zero interceptions.  Wentz certainly looks like he’s destined for stardom, but keep in mind he has played Cleveland and Chicago.  Philadelphia’s defense has been tremendous so far but they face a tough match-up with Pittsburgh’s explosive offense.  Pittsburgh has lost key pieces to suspensions but they keep rolling with Ben Roethlisberger and Antonio Brown leading the charge.  I think Philly finally stumbles in this one and Pittsburgh wins by double digits.
