Despite all the fuss that the franchise went through the previous season, the former quarterback turned NFL analyst Tony Romo believes the Eagles might take the league by storm this coming season.

Tony Romo says he thinks the #Eagles could “shock” the NFL.
“I think they’re going to be a surprise team. They could shock a lot of people and go 10-6/11-5 very quickly. I wouldn’t be surprised at all if they have a great season this year.”

One of the biggest changes in the team is the addition of a new coach. Nick Sirianni, the offensive coordinator in Indianapolis, was named the head coach of the Eagles, replacing Doug Pederson.

The Eagles have also named Jalen Hurts as their new QB1 after the departure of Carson Wentz. And including this, the No. 10 overall selection, DaVonta Smith hails the Philadelphia offense with his quick feet.

The Eagles are eagerly looking forward to the season starter, where they meet Atlanta Falcons in Atlanta. The battle of these raptors will prove the credibility of the statement made by Tony Romo.

Even though the Eagles did not win any of their exhibition matches, it can only be said that great things have humble beginnings and the preseason was as humble as the Eagles can get. Their season starter is just days ahead and the Eagles are just waiting to dominate whoever comes before them.
