As good as Philadelphia Eagles rookie quarterback Carson Wentz has been at points this season, the defense has driven the team's success.
This became obvious when Philadelphia bested the 5-1 Minnesota Vikings, 21-10, at Lincoln Financial Field to improve to 4-2 Sunday.
Previously, the story wrote itself: Team offers a king's ransom to acquire its franchise quarterback, said signal-caller is thrust into the starting lineup and exceeds all expectations as the squad wins its first three games.
No wonder everyone wanted to anoint Wentz the next great quarterback before he even had a chance to sample all of Philadelphia's wonderful cheese steaks.
