Right now, barring injury, the Eagles are the NFC East champs easily. I just can't see anyone challenging them. The Jones clan were too busy reinventing the wheel while the teams in our division were busy getting better. Now it seems the other teams are coming to collect. We blew it. Only thing that might salvage it is the draft and a free agent that no one expects us to get. Or trade.

They are not as good as they were last season and their schedule is a rough one. The NFCE teams all have tough schedules, though. I think only one NFCE team makes the playoffs. I don’t believe they’ve extended their head coach who is one the lowest paid head coaches in the NFL and on the last year of his contract. They’re not going to repeat.

They have a proven GM. I hate it but they will figure it out. We never seem to. But I'm cautiously optimistic.

Eagles with the best pass blocking tackles. Dallas with the worst. Wonder why though

Since 2004 when Philly won it four years in a row.

Funny, if he were a Cowboy named Tyron Smith, he’d be the greatest ever.

Why retire when you can false start half the time....
Even with him being slammed for it in the media / forums the guy would still be elite. Still remember the breakdown video someone did years(s) ago in slow motion of him false starting on nearly 60% of the snaps in that game.

Good Linemen never retire, they just use less of their aging body and rely more on what's between their ears.
This is why you go (draft/FA) heavy on those positions less effected by the first physical attribute that goes first.....speed.

If they are lucky, their knees/ankles are not destroyed.

This is said every year, Eagles are the best, they are the team to beat. But yet they have not repeated as division champs it about 20 years. No team has.
However, I will also pick them to win the NFCE in 2025. Because that is what I usually do. Whoever wins it, I go with to win it again. Unless that team drastically changes, or some team drastically improves. Such as Washington did last year.
I see Washington challenging them for that title.
Last year I picked Dallas, because they won it in 2023, but injuries and lack of off season changes derailed any chance.
I do not see them challenging this year even if they stay healthy, not at this point. I need to see it on the field.

Commanders kind of overachieved in the last season, the rookie Qb though talented immensely will hit some sophomore slump, as well as they had some players gone , who were contributing well . Lets see how this year plays out,
Only Pity is our dumb and dumber are not equipped to take advantage of of both eggles and commodos situation. Doomed !

Yeah that's 21 years ago. Since then no one has won back to back. Eagles lost a lot of talent. They'll contend but I don't think they'll have the same amount of success as last year.
