Eagles Power Rankings Tally Up for Week 10: Where Does Philly Stand?
The Eagles, fresh off a bye week, are looking strong as they head into their next game against the Packers. But where do power rankings place them among the NFL's top teams?
In our latest power rankings roundup, here is how the six major outlets rank the Philadelphia Eagles:
According to ESPN, the Eagles sit at number two behind only one team: "The Eagles' plans go well beyond a divisional crown... They are involved in a tight race for the NFC's No. 1 seed and can gain the upper hand against one of their top competitors at Lambeau Field." The main reasons mentioned include new defensive acquisitions Jaelan Phillips, Jaire Alexander, and Michael Carter II.
On the other hand, Yahoo rankings the Eagles as number one: "The Eagles havenβt played their best game every week, but we know their best is really good. And presumably that will happen more often as the season goes on."
USA Today ranks them fourth: "They've seemingly been awfully productive despite not playing in a week β GM/EVP Howie Roseman adding OLB Jaelan Phillips and CBs Michael Carter II and Jaire Alexander rather than kicking back during Philly's bye."
CBS places the Eagles at six, stating that they came off their bye with a big game next Monday against the Packers. "Making the move to get edge rusher Jaelen Phillips was a smart one."
