Healthy Chip
The only thing that can stop the Philadelphia Eagles from winning their second straight NFC East title will be health. Think back, every since Doug Pederson took over, something has always gone wrong with the team regarding health. Even with their Super Bowl victory, the team was still not 100 percent. Last season was more of the same as key players such as Alshon Jeffery and DeSean Jackson missed significant time.
Then the playoffs. And while Carson Wentz drove the team there, he couldn’t manage to stay healthy in his most important game. The stigma with Wentz has been a what if? But what if the Eagles manage to stay healthy without any real injuries? Jackson is ready to make up for lost time. Jeffery is out to prove that he deserves to be there and Wentz, he has to show that he can stay on the field.
This is what will drive them in 2020. They have a huge chip on their shoulders to prove not only to themselves but the rest of the league how dangerous they can be if they can be on the field together for an entire year.
