The Philadelphia Eagles rode a solid running game and the star power of Carson Wentz to the NFC East title. The accolades will continue to roll in on Tuesday, with the New Year set to begin, Pro Football Focus has deemed the Eagles offensive line the best in the NFL.
1. PHILADELPHIA EAGLES
When fully healthy, the Eagles’ offensive line didn’t have a single weak link, and that is invaluable in a league where weak links are quickly exposed. All five starters — Jason Peters, Isaac Seumalo, Jason Kelce, Brandon Brooks and Lane Johnson — graded among the top-10 players at their respective positions. Seumalo was the only one who graded outside the top-two players at his position. The most impressive performance on the line belongs to Brooks, who had the highest overall grade of any guard in the NFL after tearing his Achilles last postseason. His season was cut short by injury again last week, but his performance as the top player on the league’s top offensive line has been one of the better stories this season.
The Eagles landed in front of the Baltimore Ravens vaunted offense, which led the NFL in rushing and will have several award winners.
The Colts, Dallas Cowboys and New Orleans Saints. The Packers, Buccaneers, Titans, Steelers, and Patriots all landed in the top-10.
