They have earned it too. They have the best balance. No glaring weaknesse on Offense, Defense, nor special teams. They can run the ball to keep the ball out of opposing team's QB's hands. And...they have one of the best defenses in the league (to get the ball back if they need it).

Health and injuries have broken their way (and to the detriment of the Eagles).

But as we all know, what's on paper doesn't always play out on the field.
