Broncos-Eagles Stat Pack: A Look At The Key Numbers That Could Determine The Game
Fun notes and facts as the Eagles get ready for Denver ...
Denver’s defense is ranked first in the NFL in total yards allowed per game (261) and second in the NFL in yards allowed on the ground (72.9). The Eagles are third in the NFL in total offensive yards per game (371.8) and fifth in rushing yards per game (129.2). And, of course, the Eagles just traded for a running back ...
It’s not a one-sided running game comparison, either: Denver ranks 10th in the NFL in rushing yards per game offensively (123.4) and the Eagles’ defense is best in the NFL against the run, allowing an average of only 70.4 rushing yards per game.
