With the 2016 season coming to a close, the Eagles find themselves sitting at 6-9 and in the basement of the NFC East.
While the season might not have been a total success, there are certainly reasons to be optimistic heading into next year.
For one, it looks like the Eagles found their franchise quarterback in Carson Wentz. By starting Sunday's season finale against the Cowboys, Wentz will make Eagles history by joining Ron Jaworski, Randall Cunningham and Donovan McNabb as only the fourth quarterback in franchise history to start 16 games in a season.
On the other side of the ball, the Eagles' defense showed flashes of dominance at times this season under first-year defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz. One player who benefited greatly from Schwartz is Brandon Graham, who's credited with 5.5 sacks, 2 forced fumbles and a fumble recovery, and was selected as a Pro Bowl alternate this season.
However, the Eagles certainly need a lot of help before they can be mentioned as playoff or Super Bowl contenders.
Despite the dissapointment of this season, Graham has some pretty bold predictions for 2017.
