it stays in the 70s for the eagles game. e wind gradually increasing as we go through the night and sometimes the swirling wind can affect the kicking game david acres used to have problems with that from time to time. at 7:00 a.m., the remnants of that line, the computer model is not agreeing on the timing of this or the intensity, which makes it rather interesting. you can see the thunderstorms, 11:00 a.m., into new jersey, it looks like the greatest threat of severe weather would be from the philadelphia area eastward and rain lasting longer in new jersey. look at that. that's dinnertime right at the shore with some of the worst weather and then the drier air starts to move in behind that. as we go through the day tomorrow, the temperatures don't really change very much. and if we do get a little bit of sunshine late in the day, like especially in lehigh valley, temperatures go back up into the 70s. so tomorrow, it's not going to cool down at all. it is going to cool down after that. let's take a look at the ten-day temper

sports the eagles did not just win but looked really really good. >> the key today third down the eagleson third down and wentz throwing three of four touchdown on third down unbelievable performance today the eagles yes they know how to make a first impression and out scored teams by 38 points in the first quarter this year and today against the cardinals carson wentz becomes the first quarterback in eagles history to throw three touchdowns in the first with mike trout out of the game the eagles hit it out of the park against arizona carson wentz must have an angel on his shoulder watch this first quarter to zach ertz the best tight end in football 14-0 eagles and wentz throws three of the career four in the first and next possession third down again this time deep for torrey smith 59 yards in the house it's 21-0 check out the celebration batter up that ball is out of here. then in the third eagles hit it out of the park again and wentz deep and nelson and agholar, his confidence is back, wentz says he makes the corner look silly what a move agholar 72 moves for a career high third scor

the eagles don't have lane johnson the right side is a question mark against julius peppers, have i tie has to may better than he did last season. and then convert on third downs eagles number one in the nfl converting on third down the panthers number two in the nfl converting on third down a very aggressive defensive approach against carson wentz but look he's prepared as well he can for four days. should be ready to play a very fine game against some questionable cornerbacks in carolina. a look at both sides of the ball your keys for the game. >> i think the first key for the game is that the eagles must run the ball establish the line of scrimmage early in this game that means not only peppers but the interior of the panthers defensive line is very strong. number two, they can't let cam newton beat them by buying time in the pocket. that means they've got to win with pass rush precious, number three, the eagles have done nice job in the red zone. that must continue and these are cliches statistics but within the turnover battle, score touchdowns, touchdown in the red zone after good
