The Eagles have gotten off to an 8-1 start, but what does that mean? Here are the last 10 teams to start that hot and how they finished the year.

The Philadelphia Eagles have gotten off to a great start, leading the NFL with an 8-1 record through Week 9 of the 2023 campaign.
Of the last 10 teams to start 8-1 or better, there were as many that made it to the Super Bowl and lost as there were who lost in the first round of the playoffs on Wild Card Weekend.
Philly finds themselves on this list twice, once for last year's Super Bowl-losing squad, and once for their 2017 Super Bowl-winning unit.
