NFL 2024 Power Rankings: Where Are Eagles After Disappointing Season?

The Eagles have many things to focus on this offseason, but what's the starting point? It seems silly to have 2024 power rankings two days after the 2023 season ended, but here we are.

The 2023 season is finally over after an impressive 25-22 Super Bowl LVIII Chiefs win over the 49ers on Sunday. Now teams can move forward with free agency and the upcoming NFL Draft to make improvements for a hopeful appearance in Super Bowl LIX in New Orleans next February.

The Philadelphia Eagles have many things to focus on this offseason, but what's the starting point? It seems silly to have 2024 power rankings two days after the 2023 season ended, but here we are.

NFL.com released its rankings as we enter the early offseason, and the Eagles are at No. 10:

Rank 10 - Philadelphia Eagles 11-7

"The late-season collapse led to major changes on Nick Sirianni's staff, and yet some drama still simmers, as Haason Reddick has been granted the freedom to explore trade scenarios, and A.J. Brown ended the season with some hard, awkward feelings. Time will heal some of those wounds, and there absolutely is a path to Jalen Hurts re-emerging as an MVP candidate. The first order of business is figuring out how to revive a defense that was a pass-rushing machine in 2022 but regressed in a major way in 2023. Was it all play-calling? 

"Or do the Eagles need major reinforcements for that unit, especially in the secondary? I suspect the latter is the case, and GM Howie Roseman is entering his favorite part of the calendar. The Eagles have never shied away from bold moves, and it won't shock me one bit if they have a few major tricks up their sleeves to deploy in the next few months."

There are four NFC teams ahead of Philly in the power rankings. It's no surprise the 49ers are No. 2, but how many more years can they be the bridesmaid? The Lions, Cowboys and Packers are all in front of the Eagles. And while the Cowboys have their own messes to clean up, it's nothing compared to what general manager Howie Roseman and Sirianni have to deal with at home.

What Does Eagles Star Reddick Really Want?

The Hasaan Riddick trade drama isn't a good start to the offseason, and Sirianni has a ton of work to do to his staff and roster to get over the hump of the late-season collapse he drove through Philadelphia.

It's time to put 2023 in the rear-view mirror and move on, and see what 2024 brings.
