Are we over-hyping the 2019 Eagles?

When you think about it, this really feels like the first Eagles training camp after their Super Bowl victory.

Obviously it’s not. The New England Patriots are the defending champs thanks to a thrilling(!!!) 13-3 win in Super Bowl 53, a game we would all agree never actually happened. After Super Bowl 52, the last one of those things that actually mattered, the Eagles really didn’t have an off-season. No one had a chance to catch their breath. The celebration and parade rolled right into the ring ceremony, which rolled right into the minicamps and off-season, which rolled right into players getting surgeries for their many ailments, which rolled right into training camp, which rolled right into a regular season in which so many Eagles players were not available as they recovered from the season before.
