Can Eagles Reload Enough?
Over the last month and a half, no story in the NFL was more explicit, obvious, and concrete than the collapse of the Philadelphia Eagles. It was the most disappointing and pathetic thing of the season. After starting 10-1, they wound up losing five of their final six games in the regular season in embarrassing fashion, then went on to get romped by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Luckily, the offseason has brought about much-needed change already. They’ve seen a coaching staff change as Vic Fangio and Kellen Moore have been brought in as coordinators. Still, a big job is set for Howie Roseman, as this roster needs a ton of help. Defensively, they need to acquire multiple starters through the free agency and the draft, especially on the backend and at the linebacker position. At the same time, franchise icons such as Fletcher Cox and Brandon Graham are set to become free agents. Offensively, not much needs to be done besides an answer on Jason Kelce’s future and maybe a new running back. However, with Jalen Hurts at the helm, the offense is screaming for continuity and consistency. This is a pivotal offseason for Philly as they were just in the Super Bowl 12 months ago, so it will be interesting to see how their offseason unfolds.
