Eagles at the bye

Other than Carson Wentz

McLane: Doug Pederson - His success has been a surprise, but at least there was photographic evidence of Wentz playing quarterback at a high level. Unless you happened to be in Louisiana to catch a Calvary Baptist Academy game from 2005-08, there wasn't much to support the notion that Pederson would be a good head coach. But he rightfully deserves a large share of credit for the Eagles' 3-0 start. Pederson has been a steadying presence at NovaCare Complex, he has effectively delegated to a veteran staff, and he has helped nurture Wentz's introduction into the NFL.
