Wentz, Eagles top Browns

The Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz started off his NFL career a winner as Philly (1 -0) topped the Browns by a 29 -10 score at home on Sunday afternoon. Wentz deserves a great deal of credit for directing five scoring drives as a rookie against a Browns defense that tried everything to apply pressure. In addition to Wentz (and other offensive successes such as Jordan Matthews and Zach Ertz), the defense played a solid all around game.

Hillary Clinton holds a 46% to 41% lead over Donald Trump among likely voters -- with Libertarian nominee Gary Johnson at 9% and the Green Party's Jill Stein at 2% -- according to a new Washington Post/ABC News poll.
