The Philadelphia Eagles made it to the Super Bowl in 2022 for many reasons.
They had one of the league’s top offenses, and their defense was among the league leaders in points allowed per game.
While it can be tough to continue dominance from one season to the next, many believe the Eagles will do just that.
According to Leslie Frasier on NFL Total Access, he said: “I think they’re well on their way to being a dominating defense again.”
“They are well on their way to being a dominating defense again.”

Frasier and Davis pointed out some additions to this defense to help them succeed.
While they lost Javon Hargrave, a potentially devasting blow, other players can fill in the gaps.
The Eagles drafted two defensive players in the first round this year, Jalen Carter and Nolan Smith.
Both players went to the University of Georgia, which has quickly turned into a breeding ground for the Eagles.
Many of the Eagles’ top players went to Georgia.
If Smith and Carter play well in their first season, they could retain their place as one of the league’s top defenses.
One of the many positives for the Eagles is their coaching staff.
Nick Sirianni has instituted a massive culture change in the organization.
While they lost their defensive coordinator in the offseason, Sirianni believes he has the tools at his disposal to make another title run.
The NFC is wide open.
Besides the Eagles, there hasn’t been a clear contender to establish themselves.
This might leave the door wide open for them, pending a team making a strong, unexpected push.
