Carolina's offensive transformation to more spread formations and quick-timed throws has yet to unfold the way some (like yours truly) worried it might. There has been some productive use of pre-snap motion and three-receiver bunches, but spread formations and quick-timed throws remain few and far between, which is good.

The best game of Week 6 might just be the first game of Week 6. Two of the NFC’s hottest teams will throw down in Charlotte when the 4-1 Philadelphia Eagles face the 4-1 Carolina Panthers on Thursday Night Football. The broadcast begins at 8:30 p.m. ET and broadcast live on NFL Network/CBS (live stream). Cam Newton’s resurgence has the Panthers atop the NFC South standings, and two recent wins have proven they aren’t just a paper tiger. Carolina notched road wins over Super Bowl 51 champion New England and 2016 playoff participant Detroit to make its claim as a 2017 contender.

The Philadelphia Eagles running game has taken some big blows in recent weeks, but LeGarrette Blount really stepped up his game to fill the voids. The Eagles lost Darren Sproles for the season against the Giants in Week 3 with a broken arm and torn ACL and then they lost backup rusher Wendell Smallwood to a knee injury following the Week 4 win over the Los Angeles Chargers. Since losing Sproles, Blount has 277 yards and a touchdown on 42 carries. Last week, he rushed for 74 yards on 14 carries while Smallwood was sidelined. Be prepared to see a lot more Blount again this week. Working on a short week, the Eagles do not anticipate getting Smallwood back for the Thursday night contest against the Continue to Article

The Eagles’ offense is soaring right now, but Smith hasn’t quite benefited. The Philadelphia Eagles are flying high at 4-1, thanks to a surging offense led by second-year quarterback Carson Wentz. Over the first five games, Smith has just 13 catches for 204 yards and a touchdown, an underwhelming catch rate on his 23 targets. Continue to Article
