The Philadelphia Eagles are playing host to the Carolina Panthers on Monday night.
The Panthers got off to a very poor start turning it over on their second and third offensive plays from scrimmage.
The Eagles have taken advantage of those miscues to take an early 17-7 lead. Both touchdowns were scored by Darren Sproles.
After getting a field goal following the Panthers’ first turnover, Sproles scored from eight yards out to make it 10-0, capping a five-play, 43-yard drive. Then, after the Panthers cut the lead to 10-7 and made a stop to get the ball back, Sproles made the biggest play of the game so far. He returned a Panthers’ punt 65 yards for a score.
