The Eagles gave their team a bit of a scare after entering halftime down to the Jacksonville Jaguars by 17-points, but they rallied in the second half and proved to be the team that many expected them to be this season.

Nick Foles put up more than 300 yards through the air, LeSean McCoy and Darren Sproles combined for 145 yards rushing and the defense capped off the game with a fumble return for a touchdown.

When the Eagles offense is clicking, they are as high-powered as anyone in the league and they should be able to light up the scoreboard all season long.

The team will just need to avoid slow starts, especially next weekend against the Indianapolis Colts.
