McCoy has 303 combined rush yards his last 2 MNF games; Luck making only 2nd MNF start of career.The Philadelphia Eagles and Indianapolis Colts are meeting for the 19th time ever tonight, but the first time on Monday Night Football (8:30 ET on ESPN/WatchESPN). Here are the best statistical angles for the game tonight.

Great late

Both teams fell behind by 17 points in Week 1, but only the Eagles came back to win.

Philadelphia trailed 17-0 at halftime in its season opener against the Jaguars, but outscored Jacksonville 34-0 in the second half.

Prior to that game, the Eagles were 1-39 since the merger in games they trailed by at least 17 points at the half.

Like the Eagles, the Colts also trailed by 17 points at halftime in their season opener. Indianapolis rallied, but still lost at the Broncos 31-24.

The Broncos thwarted the Colts’ comeback attempt in the fourth quarter thanks to some stellar pass defense.

They intercepted or defended seven passes by players in coverage in the final 10 minutes of the game, more than any other team since 2006 (when ESPN began video tracking).

Quarterbacks with something to prove

Nick Foles had four turnovers all of last season, but had three in the first half against the Jaguars in the season opener.

Nick Foles in Week 1 vs Jaguars

Foles’ improvement in the second half was the biggest reason the Eagles scored 34 straight points and came away victorious.

As mentioned above, Andrew Luck and the Colts fell behind by 17 at halftime against the Broncos, but rallied in the second half.

Although Luck's completion percentage was lower in the second half (63.2) than the first (73.3), he did throw for 134 more yards after the break (252) than he did in the first two quarters (118).

Coming back is nothing new to Luck during his brief NFL career. Although he didn't get it done in Week 1, since he entered the league in 2012, Luck leads the NFL in game-winning drives (10). Tony Romo is second on the list with nine such drives.

Quick hitters

• Reggie Wayne will be appearing in his 198th game with the Colts. That’ll tie him with Eugene Daniel for third on the team’s all-time list, behind only Peyton Manning (208) and Johnny Unitas (206).

Most Starts to Begin Career
w/o Consecutive Losses - Since Merger

• Luck has gone 33 straight starts without losing back-to-back games to begin his career, tied with Dan Marino for the longest such streak since the merger.

• The Eagles have won each of their last five road openers, including last year on Monday Night Football in Washington. That’s one behind the Texans (who won at Oakland on Sunday) for the longest active streak of its kind.

• LeSean McCoy has rushed for 119 (2012 at Saints) and 184 yards (2013 at Redskins), respectively, in his last two games on Monday Night Football.

• Trent Richardson is averaging just 2.9 yards a rush since being traded to the Colts prior to Week 3 of the 2013 season. That ranks 44th out of the 45 qualified rushers in that time span.
