Is it possible for the Philadelphia Eagles to turn around and establish themselves once more as one of the NFL’s top Super Bowl contenders?
Oh, the ways NFL narratives can shift so quickly. Formerly thought to be the strongest Super Bowl candidate, the Philadelphia Eagles are now being questioned by some as to whether they were pretenders all along.
Fortunately, Philly will have a chance to gain momentum going into the playoffs against the Arizona Cardinals and New York Giants, two teams that have underachieved all season.
The Eagles don’t lack talent, but their recent poor coaching appears to have played a major role in the team’s three losses.
Yes, the team suffered big defeats against the Dallas Cowboys and San Francisco 49ers, but Philadelphia beat the Cowboys earlier this season, so it’s not like Philly can’t beat Dallas.
Going up against teams like the Giants and Cardinals, players such as A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith should be able to start getting back into the flow of games and helping build the team’s winning momentum back up.
