The studs

Doug Pederson, head coach

You’ll hear arguments all offseason about how Philly’s gone from Super Bowl winners to losers in the Divisional Round to the team that lost in the Wild card Round, but that has nothing to do with the man on the sideline. At some point, you have to give Doug Pederson his due.

For this man to do what he does over and over is amazing. You could give him the Coach of the Year Award every year. Give this man some decent assistants, and he’ll take the league by storm.

Miles Sanders, running back

In a season full of what-ifs and unanswered questions, Miles Sanders gave Eagles fans hope for the future. He’s got a huge case for the NFL’s Rookie of the Year Award, and if Philly can somehow find a few more skill players like this one, they might not lose a game in 2020.

Malcolm Jenkins, safety

People just keep trying to write this guy off. People just keep trying to say he’s done, and Malcolm Jenkins just keeps on shining. ‘Iron Man’ isn’t just a Marvel character. ‘Iron Man’ wears number ’27’ and plays for the Philadelphia Eagles. Philly’s got to figure out a way to keep this guy.
