If I’d have asked you seven months ago how you felt about the Philadelphia Eagles, I’m sure many of the words in response would’ve been expletives. The team was coming off a disastrous 2020 campaign that saw everything that was once golden being burned to the ground. It’s almost scary to think how far the team has come since then, but on the fringe of a new NFL season, it’s probably a good time to do just that.
Week 17 was probably the biggest sign of a complete downfall. Prior to that, there was almost this sense of clinging onto Jalen Hurts as the team’s final hope, and his eccentric performances injected life into a soulless offense, giving fans all the more reason to get behind him.
