Eagles power ranking roundup: Week 12
Are power rankings completely dumb and meaningless? Yes. Yes, they are. However, personally speaking, whenever I see them, I click. And now that I've sucked you in with promises of many power rankings, you'll read it and like it.
Here's where people around the country have the Eagles ranked after Week 11. Oh, and here's our version of these sellout rankings , too.
#JimmySays: The Eagles haven't won many games in "style" this season, but they've now beaten the Dolphins, Cowboys, and Chiefs, a trio of teams most view as Super Bowl contenders, and they have done it in a variety of ways.
#JimmySays: In case you missed our positive review of the Eagles' special teams a few weeks ago, you can catch up on that here .
#JimmySays: The only way the Eagles beat a team running only Brotherly Shoves is if they get some defensive touchdowns and completely smother the opposing offense. Maybe against, sayyyy, the Giants? But the idea that they would march the field running only sneaks is a little far-fetched.
#JimmySays: The team didn't doubt that.
#JimmySays: I'll disagree here that the Eagles "were outplayed for most of the game." First half? For sure. Second half? Absolutely not.
#JimmySays: "They are the clear class of the league right now" might sound a smidge hyperbolic, but in a league in which every other team except for the Lions has at least three losses, it's true.
