Every week, former Eagles president Joe Banner joins us for a Q&A. Here's the latest installment.

Kapadia: Since we last talked, the Eagles improved to 6-1 but lost Jason Peters and Jordan Hicks for the season. What kind of impact do you think those injuries will have on them going forward?

Banner: You've heard me say that the elite teams in the league dominate the offensive line and defensive line, and they get great quarterback play. That's what got the Eagles to 6-1. You can't lose a player that's this good and have it not have an impact — talking about Peters.
