If the Eagles are to go all the way this season it would have to be on the back of this well-put-together defensive unit. Howie Roseman has gone above and beyond to give Jonathan Gannon all of the necessary pieces that he would need to succeed. These pieces aren’t ordinary ones either. From inexperienced to veterans, Roseman has delivered players that were either on top of their game not too long ago or settling into their prime.
Last season, Gannon struggled to find his footing with this unit. Although he was very much sought after for a head coaching gig, Gannon’s rough season as a first-time Defensive Coordinator could’ve been the reason that he didn’t land at any of these open positions.
