Analysis

The Eagles made the playoffs last year and look like they’ve improved the roster in the offseason. The acquisition of A.J. Brown was major news. Philadelphia offers a credible pass attack and a credible run attack, plus a QB who was second only to Lamar Jackson in using his feet. Combine that offense with a credible defense and you have a credible pick for the top team in the NFC East.

Prediction: 1st in division. The Eagles looked great at times last year. Then they were exposed in the playoffs. QB Jalen Hurts is another year wiser and now has AJ Brown to pass to. That might not be enough to make Philly a real threat in the playoffs, but it should help them nose their way in front of division rivals.
