NFL analyst picks the only QB with “enough heart” to stop relentless Philadelphia Eagles
The Philadelphia Eagles are looking like a legitimate contender to win the Super Bowl this season. Following their win over the Houston Texans on Thursday, the Eagles are now 8-0.
The NFC has looked pretty weak this season, and due to it, many see the Eagles reaching the Super Bowl. However, as per Emmanuel Acho, there is one team and one quarterback that can stop the Eagles from reaching the biggest game of this season.
Acho, speaking on Speak, stated his belief that Dak Prescott is the man to put an end to the terrific run of the Philadelphia Eagles. He thinks that he will stop them, come playoff time. Here's what Acho said about Dak Prescott:
"I think one thing and one place could stop the Eagles, Dak Prescott and or the Super Bowl. I think Dak Prescott is the only person that has enough help and has enough talent to stop. Kirk Cousins isn't gonna stop the Eagles. We saw what happened when the Vikings play the Eagles."
Emmanuel Acho added:
"Um, Tom Brady doesn't have enough help. Aaron Rodgers doesn't have enough help. Marcus Mariota, I don't think he has it. Nor does he have enough help. The Saints not, ain't got it. San Francisco 49ers, I just need to see them get healthy. I'll talk more about them later."
"TURN ME UP!"

He continued:
"But Dak Prescott is the only quarterback I think, that has enough heart and has enough help to stop the eagles. Dak Prescott does not get punked. He doesn't. We know how much Dak Prescott has been through on the field and off the field. He don't get punked and he has enough helping Michael Parsons etc."
Acho further went on to say that if the Dallas Cowboys aren't able to take down the Eagles, then a team from the AFC is more likely to defeat them in the Super Bowl. Many believe that the path to an 8-0 record for the Eagles has been easy and have compared them to the Arizona Cardinals of last season.
Jalen Hurts has emerged as an MVP candidate this season but he still has a long road to go if he wants to silence all his doubters.

Philadelphia Eagles need to show up in the playoffs this season
Last season, the Eagles were able to squeak their way into the playoffs but were exposed by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Jalen Hurts was heavily scrutinized for it, but he has bounced back quite well this season.
After the kind of start the Philadelphia Eagles have had this season, anything less than a Super Bowl would be deemed a failure. Due to it, Jalen Hurts needs to continue putting up good numbers come playoff time as well.
Whether or not Dak Prescott will be able to stop this Eagles team remains to be seen, but the rivalry between them is going to be quite fascinating.
