Is Carson Wentz an elite QB? A dive into the numbers

PHILADELPHIA -- Quarterback Carson Wentz will square off against Tom Brady for the first time in his career when the Philadelphia Eagles host the New England Patriots on Sunday (4:25 p.m. ET, CBS).

"It's always cool to play a competitor like him, arguably one of the best ever," Wentz said Wednesday. "Ton of respect for him and what he has done."

Wentz missed the last matchup, of course, as a torn ACL and LCL late in the 2017 season sidelined him for the Eagles' postseason run, which culminated in a 41-33 win against New England in Super Bowl LII.
