Nnamdi Asomugha to Eagles: 5 Reasons Why the Eagles Are Now the Team to Beat

The Philadelphia Eagles have sent a message to the rest of the league in the last 72 hours of free agency. That message is the Eagles are swinging for the fences. It's Superbowl or bust. Under Andy Reid, the Eagles have fallen a game short of the Superbowl four times, while also losing Superbowl XXXIX.

It's clear the time to win is now. The fanbase in Philadelphia is getting impatient, and for good reason. The Eagles have never won a Superbowl and haven't won a league title since 1960. Obviously, the Eagles are going all in this offseason.

For those keeping track at home, so far the Eagles have signed one the best corners, one of the best pass rushers from 2010, another top notch corner, a former Pro Bowl quarterback to backup Michael Vick, and one of the best defensive tackles on the open market.

The Eagles have positioned themselves as the team to beat. Other contenders have made a nice move or two, but no one else has put as many Pro Bowl caliber players on an already really good football team.
