The Eagles raised the bar once again with a 51-23 demolishing of the Broncos on Sunday at Lincoln Financial Field. Here’s what we learned:
- The Eagles aren’t a fluke, Part VI. Yeah, yeah, why mess with a good thing? The Eagles have won seven straight and are 8-1 for the fifth time in franchise history. On the previous four occasions, they either won the NFL championship (1949, 1960) or reached the Super Bowl (1980, 2004). It may be too early to peek that far into the future, but this group deserves to be mentioned along with those other incarnations – at least through nine weeks.
