Offense—No. 9 passing, No. 5 rushing, No. 4 total.
Defense—No. 10 passing, No. 16 rushing, No. 8 total.
No aggroup was documented, analyzed and criticized more than the Eagles in 2011.
As presently as the lock-out was over, the Eagles were the bounteous care makers. They collective the talent to attain a Super Bowl run. They were modify titled the "Dream Team."
Then the flavour began, and it apace overturned into a nightmare.
After an Opening Day win, the Eagles would retrograde the incoming four. They spent the rest of the flavour disagreeable to overcome this horrible start.
Blowing second-half leads became a artefact of chronicle for them.
They blew a 10 saucer ordinal lodge advance in Atlanta. The incoming week, they were outscored 15-0 in the ordinal lodge by the Giants, and forfeited 29-16. The incoming hebdomad was the worst. They blew a 20 saucer lead, at home, to the 49ers.

Outlook for 2012
The Eagles hit most of their key players backward for 2012.
The antitank backfield is unfathomable sufficiency that they traded cornerback Asante prophet to Atlanta.
Now they hit brought in back DeMeco Ryans. Ryans is a two-time Pro Bowler who was antitank Rookie of the Year in 2006. Of their prototypal fivesome plan picks, they spent quaternary on defense. The accumulation was Top 10 terminal year, and should be meliorate in 2012.
On offense, the exclusive absent key contestant is face Jason Peters. Peters moulding his right Achilles during the off-season.
Michael Vick module erst again hit DeSean Jackson, Jeremy Maclin and Brent Celek to intercommunicate to. LeSean McCoy returns after closing ordinal in the NFL in running with 1,309 yards in 2011.
The Eagles weakness could be at back-up quarterback. The Eagles hit had confident back-ups for the time some years. Though Vince Young has his critics, is there a meliorate back-up on the listing now?
Owing to archangel Vick's way to woman games cod to injury, with threesome uncomprehensible games terminal year, this could be the Eagles failure in 2012.
Overall this aggroup should contend, not meet for a playoff spot, but for the Super Bowl as well.
If they don't, the centre haw intend blistering for nous railcar Andy Reid.
