Eagles No. 4 in power rankings
Yes, it's probably way to early for this kind of thing, but espn.com unleashed its first power rankings for the 2009 season. And where do your Eagles rank? If you read the headline, you know by now. ESPN's NFL bloggers have the Birds at No. 4 behind the Steelers, Patriots and Giants. Sounds rather optimistic.

Yes, it's probably way to early for this kind of thing, but espn.com unleashed its first power rankings for the 2009 season. And where do your Eagles rank? If you read the headline, you know by now. ESPN's NFL bloggers have the Birds at No. 4 behind the Steelers, Patriots and Giants. Sounds rather optimistic.
Here's their take on the Eagles:
"With the additions of Jeremy Maclin, Jason Peters and LeSean McCoy, this should be one of the top offenses." Should.
Only 1,275 predictions to go until the season starts in September.
I'm a little worried the Eagles are becoming the ESPN trendy pick this year. I hope these guys don't let it get into their heads. Our hops are based on a whole lotta rookies at skill positions. I hope they are right...the trendy pick never does well.— IgglesFan79- i love the birds,,, but better than the champs,,, that has to be proven on the field and last year Pittsburg proved it.— phillyroni
