No, sadly they are not done.
They had a disastrous game. I hope they don’t make next year’s Super Bowl because they might be unbeatable.
I agree. The "template" provided by the Eagles was to have a dominant four man pass rush, combined with really sticky zone coverage. Well, that's a lot easier said than done.
Most teams don't have the personnel for a dominant four man pass rush. Even fewer have the injury luck to still have it in the Super Bowl.
If the Chiefs make some upgrades to their line and get a little luckier with their opponent, they'll still be contending.

49ers had a similar approach last Super Bowl. Difference was Eagles DLine was better and deeper. Greenlaw got hurt for the 49ers and then the Chiefs started feasting. The Eagles got turnovers that led to 3 TDs. 49ers only got a FG off the INT Mahomes threw and the Chiefs fumbled 6 times but 49ers only recovered once. Recover a couple more of those fumbles and Greenlaw stays healthy and the game is probably not close in the 4th Q.

Eagles have Jalen Carter, no one else does
Fangio is a better DC than Wilks etc

Why?
40-6 is what happens when the refs let the fellas play ball. It’s kinda like what happens to Dems when the media aren’t in their corner

2 years ago, Eagles had zero sacks and they passed more than they ran.
This year was different because of Jalen Carter, Saquon and 2 different coordinators
Fangio > Gannon
Moore > Steichen
I am familiar with both Moore and Steichen, both are former Chargers OC
