Who knows, we could even see a rematch again next year, something that’s happened just once in history with the Cowboys and Bills in 1992-93. But while the NFC is known for producing a new contender every year, the Eagles have been the most consistent team for the last decade and arguably the whole 21st century in this conference.

Let’s look at their obstacles to repeating, starting with ending one of the wildest streaks in NFL history.

Can the Eagles End the NFC East Repeat Curse?

Repeating as Super Bowl champions is very difficult. The only teams to do it in the 32-team era are the 2003-04 Patriots and 2022-23 Chiefs. But something that hasn’t been nearly as hard is winning your division in consecutive years. A team like the Chiefs have won the AFC West for the last 9 years, the 2nd-longest streak in NFL history.

But can you believe no team has won the NFC East in consecutive years since the Eagles had a 4-year run on top in 2001-04? Every other division in the NFL has seen multiple teams repeat as division winner in that time.

With the NFC East, the problem has been a shared quarterback quality dynamic where one quarterback hasn’t been consistently ahead of the pack like Patrick Mahomes in the AFC West or Josh Allen in the AFC East. Things have been split over the years in the NFC East with the likes of Donovan McNabb, Tony Romo, Eli Manning, Dak Prescott, and Jalen Hurts all having their days in the sun.

But winning the division is one of the best ways to ensure the Eagles give themselves the best shot at a repeat. It was important to their run this year that they were a No. 2 seed that got to play every playoff game at home thanks to the Lions (No. 1 seed) getting upset by Washington.

Watch Out for Washington

Alas, the Commanders could be the roadblock to the Eagles repeating as Jayden Daniels is the only quarterback to beat them since October.

People need to acknowledge how freakishly good this Philadelphia team was after going 18-3 with a pair of losses where they would have won if they hadn’t dropped a pass against the Falcons and Commanders. Their only bad showing was in Tampa Bay without their top wideouts.

But Daniels had a special rookie season and reached the NFC Championship Game. His skill players lost 3 fumbles in each of the last 2 matchups with the Eagles, but he still threw 5 touchdowns to upset them in Week 16.

The Commanders will need to have an aggressive offseason similar to the Houston Texans last year to bring in some talent to compete better with the Eagles, who outclassed them 55-23 in the NFC Championship Game. Of course, holding onto the ball would have helped make that game closer.

But the Commanders could target some elite defenders whether they trade for Myles Garrett or sign some big weapon for Daniels to throw to as his cast after Terry McLaurin is underwhelming.

That seems to be the only way the Commanders can leapfrog the Eagles, but it’s still going to be tough as a lot of great rookie quarterbacks don’t build on their success with a better 2nd year.

Just look at Dak Prescott (2017) as one example of that. Speaking of Prescott, the Cowboys had a rough year, have a new head coach in Brian Schottenheimer, and it could be a retooling season there. The Giants don’t have a quarterback yet, so good luck to them.

That’s why it’s Washington or bust for the Eagles to worry about in the NFC East, but you have to give them the best shot of any team in the last 20 years to finally repeat as division champs.

Eagles Still the Class of the NFC

We’ll see how free agency and the draft shake out, but you have to think the Eagles are still going to be in great shape to win the NFC in 2025. They lost offensive coordinator Kellen Moore to the Saints, but they should retain defensive coordinator Vic Fangio, who did a fantastic job of turning this defense into an elite unit in his 1st year.

The Eagles have a lot of young players that are under contract for 2025, including much of the core offense with Jalen Hurts, Saquon Barkley, A.J. Brown, DeVonta Smith, Dallas Goedert, and most of the offensive line. The defense has been rebuilt with recent draft picks spent on Jalen Carter, Nolan Smith, Quinyon Mitchell, and Cooper DeJean.

When you look at which players the Eagles could lose in free agency, there are 2 names that standout as Super Bowl heroes: edge rusher Josh Sweat (2.5 sacks) and linebacker Zack Baun (interception). Maybe someone like Baun tests the free-agent market, and there will be higher demand for Sweat. The Eagles could re-sign him or choose to invest in defensive tackle Milton Williams, who is also an unrestricted free agent.

But most of the 2024 roster that matters is coming back, and this is a team that was the NFL’s last unbeaten team in the 2022 and 2023 regular seasons.

A team like Detroit needs defense, and it could take a step back after losing both coordinators. The 49ers were also very injured in 2024, and while that should regress to the mean in 2025, one has to wonder if that team’s already blown its shots in the Super Bowl losses to the Chiefs.

It could be the Eagles hosting the NFC Championship Game for the 3rd time since 2022 in 2025.

Are the Eagles Too Much for the AFC Too?

Since 2023, the Eagles are 4-0 against the Chiefs, Bills, and Ravens, the best trio in the AFC. Not only did the Eagles put the clamps on the Chiefs in the Super Bowl, they were shutting down the Ravens in Baltimore this season, and they won an overtime classic against Buffalo in 2023.

In 2025, the Eagles are set to face the Chiefs and Bills on the road in what will be high-profile games, but that could just give them an early preview of a Super Bowl matchup to learn from too.

Clearly, the Chiefs aren’t putting their bye week to best use against the Eagles. Andy Reid is known as a legend after bye weeks but he is just 1-2 after a bye against Nick Sirianni since 2022.

Also, let’s not forget about the Five-Year Rule where no team has ever won its 1st Super Bowl by starting the same quarterback for the same coach for more than 5 years. The Bills and Ravens are going into Year 8 with Sean McDermott/Josh Allen and John Harbaugh/Lamar Jackson, really trying to test the rule as extreme outliers.

Meanwhile, Sirianni and Hurts won together in Year 4 after coming close in Year 2, a very familiar outcome in NFL history.

Final Verdict: Sure, Why Not a Philly Repeat?

Barring a monster Year 2 from Jayden Daniels in Washington, you have to think the Eagles have the best repeat potential in the NFC since the 2013-14 Seahawks, who are still the only NFC team to play in consecutive Super Bowls since 1998.

The NFC loves a good flash in the pan team, but the Eagles are trying to buck that trend with what would be their 4th Super Bowl since the 2017 season. They also can end that long NFC East repeat winner drought that defies logic.

Hard to believe you won’t get better odds than +550 on the Eagles to win it all between now and next February, but if you’re doing a future champions parlay across multiple sports, sure, why not give the 2025 Eagles a shot?

They just destroyed a dynasty team that was seeking a three-peat. They have the most unstoppable short-yardage play (Tush Push) that the NFL hasn’t banned yet. They are built so well in the trenches where they are young. Hurts has shown he can get the job done, and even if the defense slightly declines, and when Barkley doesn’t rip off as many 60-yard touchdown runs, they still have a fair shot to be the last team standing.

The AFC has the best quarterbacks in the NFL. But the NFC has the best non-quarterback rosters, and at the end of the day, are you trusting Jared Goff or Brock Purdy over Jalen Hurts, a 2-time Super Bowl performer who has stood up to the mighty Chiefs’ dynasty?

I didn’t think so.
