Eagles at 11-5 with almost the worst defense

That's pretty incredible 

Maybe but the team has a lot of unnecessary drama and it's going to bite them hard. With how dysfunctional they are, I have a hard time imagining them even winning against the NFC South winner. High-end talent alone will only get you so far.

This is Philly's "Days of Our Steelers". Let's call it "General Eagles" or "The Bold and the Eagles", whichever sounds better.

Crazy to think this pitiful team some how found ways to beat Miami, Dallas, KC and Buffalo. In a row.

Now instead of finding ways to win games they are finding ways to lose them. I'd like to say Let's hope they find lightning in a bottle but even the 06' Colts defense (23rd) wasn't this bad. 

Probably 1 and done even against whatever pitiful NFCS winner takes the Division. Defense is that putrid.

Happens every so often. 

2011 Packers 

2000 Rams

2003 Chiefs  

1981 Chargers 

These squads usually turn out to be more of a curiosity than a legit SB contender once the playoffs start.

The 2000 rams had started 6-0 even though the defense had given 29 points or more in 4 of its games!

I would add the 2018 Chiefs in this list too

Gannon was the GOAT. Unfortunate that he imploded in a half that will likely stick with him forever not dissimilar to what Shanahan and Quinn experienced in a quarter.

Gannon wasn't the GOAT, the team overperformed and were really talented in 2022. Gannon was good, but super unclutch. You saw it in the Super Bowl, he was clowned on.

I'm still a believer in it.

If you don't have Tom Brady, you are a strong candidate for the Super Bowl loser hangover....it just manifests in different ways.

If by different ways you mean losing 6 Starters from that SB defense and two Coordinators going into the next year,  yes I'd agree. I mean are the Chiefs still hungover from thier Win, because they don't look the same as last season either?

Most of the SB hangover teams you are referring to don't win 11-12 games the following season,  just saying. Most miss the playoffs.
