Insane Philadelphia Eagles stat should frighten the rest of the NFC
The Philadelphia Eagles are the best team in the NFL. And it's not close. Sure, that's a statement you're likely to see all over social media. And I actually hate the phrase "and it's not close".

The Philadelphia Eagles are the best team in the NFL.
And it's not close.
Sure, that's a statement you're likely to see all over social media. And I actually hate the phrase "and it's not close". But in this instance, it's true.
That's not my opinion, either. That's what the folks over at Pro Football Focus are saying after handing out grades for the first three weeks of the season.
PFF has the Eagles graded as the top team in the NFL. And according to 94WIP's Eliot Shorr-Parks, the biggest gap in the grades are between Philadelphia and the No. 2 team.
There's obviously a lot of season left to be played. But so far, the Eagles, who are the only undefeated team left in the NFC, have been downright dominant.
And there's no sign that this team is letting up anytime soon. The defense is elite, quarterback Jalen Hurts is a legitimate MVP candidate, and the AJ Brown/DeVonta Smith duo might be the best wide receiver combination in the NFL.
It's certainly a fun time to be an Eagles fan. And it's not a fun time to be a fan of one of Philly's rivals in the NFC East.
The NFC East undoubtedly runs through Philadelphia this season. And if things keep trending in the same direction, the Eagles will have the division wrapped up sooner rather than later.
