The Philadelphia Eagles are trying to repeat as Super Bowl champions, a back-to-back title chase that is as difficult mentally as it is physically.
After all, once you climb that unscalable mountain ... do you really have it in you to scale back down ... and then do it all again?
But this much is true: Philly is set up, talent-wise, to accomplish that goal in 2025.
Philadelphia returns 10 of 11 starters from its elite offense and key players across the board on its defense. While it did lose some quality veterans on the latter side of the ball, the Eagles believe they have remodeled the roster enough to continue its run of dominance.
Perhaps that is why one of the former longest-tenured players in team history is high on the team's chances to repeat.
Brandon Graham may have retired from the team after 15 seasons, but he remains connected here ... and he is high on the team repeating as Super Bowl champions.
“I really do feel like they're going back again,” Graham said of an Eagles' back-to-back Super Bowl appearance while guest starring on an episode of Gallen of Questions.
What are the challenges?
"We got to address things that pop up in the season,'' he said. "That happened this year, and we addressed it and we moved on. And we stayed focused on what the goal was, but you got to make sure they have the leaders in that room, which I know they do.
"Why it can't be them to do it again? That's how I feel."
Graham, who won two Super Bowls with this franchise, finished his career in third place on the all-time sack list for Philly, and remains a fan favorite for his consistent professionalism, colorful nature and heroics in Super Bowl LII.
Time will tell if Graham's prediction ends up being right. But his positivity likely gives Eagles fans a boost going into the new season.
