Dallas Goedert catches two touchdowns

As outlined above, the Eagles are going to be a significantly different team than the one that took the field against the Giants back in Week 7.

One of the biggest additions to Wentz’s arsenal will be the return of tight end Dallas Goedert.

The Giants have done a decent enough job covering tight ends this season, surrendering just 408 yards and a pair of touchdowns through the first nine games. However, don’t be surprised if the Eagles focus a significant chunk of the game plan on Goedert and trying to build up Wentz’s confidence on passes between the tackles.

This season, Goedert has caught 14 of his 18 targets for 153 yards and a touchdown. He’s only dropped two passes, and Wentz has a 120.6 passer rating when targeting him. That makes me think there’s a legitimate chance that Goedert could catch two touchdown passes on Sunday afternoon against the Giants.
