At the time of this writing, we’re marching toward the start of the 2023-24 season, and the Philadelphia Eagles, thanks to their potent offense and defense, are easily considered the favorites to represent the NFC in the next Super Bowl. Still, they have just one Super Bowl ring to their credit.
This comes in the season just after they were there but lost to the Kansas City Chiefs 38-35 in a tightly contested matchup.
With Jalen Hurts as their starting quarterback and the team they’ve built around him, the Eagles should be considered top dogs each season, especially in a weakened conference.
Though they lost Super Bowl LVII, they can rebound this year to win their second Super Bowl in franchise history.
Below, we’ll examine their lone Super Bowl win and other notable accomplishments they’ve had throughout their run as a franchise.
During the 2017-18 season, the Eagles appeared headed for greatness, but then quarterback Carson Wentz, a frontrunner for the MVP, went down with a season-ending injury.
Thus, the team turned to Nick Foles, a player that had shown flashes in the past, including a seven-touchdown game against the then-Oakland Raiders, but he wasn’t considered to be Wentz-like.
Still, the Eagles made the postseason and started against the Atlanta Falcons in the Divisional Round. They won 15-10, and Foles threw for 246 yards. In the NFC Championship against the Minnesota Vikings, Foles threw for 352 yards and three touchdowns.
Finally, they made it to the Super Bowl. Foles was red hot, but they faced the New England Patriots and Tom Brady. The Patriots were five-point favorites.
If you look at the box score, the Eagles had this game handled as they never relinquished a lead to the Patriots.
However, the Patriots lost Brandin Cooks, which was a significant blow. Additionally, the Eagles strip-sacked Brady and pulled off the “Philly Special,” which included a pass from running back Corey Clement to quarterback Nick Foles.
The Eagles went on to win 41-33, and Foles threw for 373 yards and three touchdowns, while LeGarrette Blount, a former Patriots running back, ran for 90 yards and a touchdown.
Brady finished with 505 yards and three scores, but it wasn’t enough to stop the red-hot Foles.
With just one Super Bowl title, the Eagles are tied with the New York Jets, Chicago Bears, Seattle Seahawks, and New Orleans Saints for sixth all-time, meaning several teams have yet to win the big game.
As you’ll see below, the Eagles have some significant catching up to do if they want to climb the ranks.

With just one ring, the Eagles are five behind the Patriots. However, they did beat the Patriots to get their lone ring.
Doable. Heading into the 2023-24 season, the Eagles are the favorites to make the Super Bowl from the NFC, meaning they have a shot to not only win this year with how their team is set up offensively and defensively but they’re also set to be a force for years to come.
The Eagles nemesis right now is the Chiefs, who they lost to last year in the Super Bowl. The Chiefs have won two titles in three years, while the Eagles look to get their first in the Hurts era.
