Not For Long

Amazing turnover among both the Eagles and Patriots’ rosters from their Super Bowl teams. 8 remaining starters (offense and defense) for the Eagles (McNabb, Westbrook, Runyan, Thomas, LJ Smith, Sheppard, Brown, and Dawkins) and 9 for the Patriots. Not one skill position player besides Brady is left. In total, 17 Patriots are still on the roster from that super bowl squad and 14 for the Eagles. What’s truly astounding is the game was only 33 months, or less than 3 years, ago.

 

The roster turnover really does highlight the need to continually stock good players. The Patriots have obviously done that. The Eagles, not so much.
