With a record of 6-0, the Philadelphia Eagles are the only unbeaten team left in the NFL, and the entire City of Brotherly Love is dreaming of the Super Bowl as a result. Given how Nick Sirianni’s team is performing and the outstanding leadership provided by quarterback Jalen Hurts, it is undoubtedly feasible.
Last Sunday, after defeating the Dallas Cowboys, the signal-caller addressed his players in an inspirational locker-room speech that would enthuse every Eagles fan on the planet:
“I want to express my gratitude to everyone present in the locker room at this time. Everyone in this locker room is there because we discuss what it means to be a family, what it means in practise, and how to do it. But today, we engaged in joint play. We stood by one another today. We had a family-style game day today. We are aware of our options. We understand our potential. We are aware that we control it. And things will continue to remain this way. As long as we keep pushing forward with these actions and seize every chance, we can become a truly dominant football team. Every single play, every single time.

Do you still run through walls? Jalen Hurts is just giving this incredible football team—which is making waves throughout the league—more gasoline. Although the Buffalo Bills are the Super Bowl favourites, this Eagles team is no laughing matter.
It’s debatable if Philadelphia has had the most challenging schedule to yet, but it’s quite impressive to remain winless through the first six weeks of an NFL season. In contrast, Jalen Hurts has completed almost 70% of his passes for over 1,500 yards, six touchdowns, and only two interceptions.
There is currently no team more confident than the Philadelphia Eagles, and they will have an extra week to prepare since they have a bye in Week 7 before taking on the Pittsburgh Steelers the following weekend.
