The Philadelphia Eagles offense has soared under the leadership of Carson Wentz this season. This week Wentz will lead his team to Seattle to face a Seahawks defense decimated by injuries in the secondary. The sophomore quarterback has been especially good the last three games. Wentz has nine touchdowns and no turnovers since Week 9. He ripped the Chicago Bears up for 227 yards and three scores on 23 completions in Week 12.

Sunday night Wentz faces a Seahawks secondary that is missing Richard Sherman and Kam Chancellor, however, they are still one of the tougher defenses in the league. The Seahawks have held opposing quarterbacks to 201 yards or fewer since losing Sherman and Chancellor. They also have an interception and four sacks while giving up three touchdowns in the two-game span.
Fantasy impact: Wentz is on fire right now and that will likely continue against the Seahawks Sunday night. He should not sleep on the Seahawks defense, however. The front seven is still very fierce and the backups in the secondary are keeping opponents in check. The Seahawks also owned the Eagles QB last season. Wentz needs to play smart, but he should be able to keep his hot streak alive in Week 13.
