Fresh from a Super Bowl win, the Philadelphia Eagles are still not getting the respect they have earned

According to a study conducted by Action Network, the Philadelphia Eagles ranked as the 2nd most overrated team in the NFL.

Earlier in the season, the Eagles faced heavy scrutiny from fans, and media alike. Analyst began to speculate their offensive woes, attributing the passing game needs to be improved; while some spectators even called for Nick Sirianni’s job.

After a week four bye, the Eagles went on to win 10 straight games before falling to the Commanders in week 16. Finishing the season with a 14-3 record (the second-best in the league), the Eagles managed to top the standings in the NFC East, and make an unbelievable playoff run, ultimately defeating the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LIX.

Similar to the Cowboys, Eagles fans are a major force in NFL discussions, which may contribute to their presence on our list. However, for a team that let go of some key pieces that helped them win a Super Bowl, there are still issues that need to be worked out.
