How the Eagles and Dolphins stack up for Week 7

Some regular season games are bigger than others, and we’re a little over 33 hours away from an electric, and high energy matchup between the Eagles (5-1), and the Dolphins (5-1) on NBC’s Sunday Night Football.

The game features two MVP candidates at quarterbacks, two wide receivers on a projection of 1,900+ yards receiving, and game-changing speed on both sides of the football.

Miami enters the contest averaging 37 points per game, and they’ll be headlined by All-Pro receiver Tyreek Hill, who is having an outstanding season – he leads the NFL with 42 receptions, 814 yards, and six touchdowns.

With the Dolphins heading to Philly, we’re looking at how the two teams stack up statistically.
