The draft has just gone further to up the expectations of the Eagles in 2009. While the expectations are always high, this season seems to be higher than they have ever been since 2004.
Like 2004, the Eagles made a fairly large splash in free agency. Well, they didn't really sign a big-time free agent, but they did trade for arguably the best left tackle in all of football in Jason Peters.
2008 was an aberration. I think that's fairly obvious to anyone who's not either A) a Cowboys fan, B) a Giants fan, C) a Redskins fan, or D) a delusional Bills fan. I don't know about the "sacks given up" stat, that's one of the most unreliable stats I've ever heard
