I am addicted to these old Jon Fecenda films. These are some of my earliest memories of the Eagles (I was 6) but still so cool to see.

From 1974 to 1976 the Eagles were going back and forth between Mike Boryla and Roman Gabriel until Ron Jaworski arrived in 1977 and gave stability at the QB position until 1986 when he was succeeded by Randall Cunningham as the Eagles starting QB.

The Eagles from 1974 to 1976 were going back and forth between Roman Gabriel and Mike Boryla at QB until they found their QB in Ron Jaworski in 1977 and that lasted until 1986 when Randall Cunningham became the heir apparent to Ron Jaworski.

At the start of 1975 the NFC east was seen as wide open. The Cowboys were rebuilding and the average age on the Redskins was 59.

So many times... the rebuilding process had started only to fizzle out. I think Mike McCormack did a good job getting the Eagles to contender status by 1974 but 75 was probably the most bitter disappointing year in Eagles history highlighted by a 42-3 loss to the Rams at home on a Monday night. Going into 1975, the Eagles felt they had a borderline championship caliber defense combined with some world class talent on offense. They were always missing the breakaway runner and would get it with Wilbert Montgomery in 1977. The offensive line clearly needed fixed. The spirit of McCormack remained with two wins over the Redskins that kept DC out of the playoffs. The rebuilding process that McCormack began, Dick vermeil finished by decades end

The 75 Eagles had absolutely no defensive line. They were able to draft Wilbert Montgomery with a pick they picked up in a trade for Joe Lavender

@@conlanding Didn’t Mike McCormick used to be an assistant for George Allen in Washington? What does this has to do with the Eagles? Well George Allen used to trade first round picks for veterans and he won. Mike McCormick tried to do the same with the Eagles. Well, what works with one doesn’t always work for the other.

A more accurate way of describing Eagles' WR corps that year is no one gained more than 660yrds because the QB rating for Gabriel/Boryla combined was a terrible 62.3

At 8:10 Mr Facenda says "Eagle fans are the most appreciative, the most knowledgeable, and the most loyal in football". That's a lie. Through the years, I have asked Eagle fans who the best coach and quarterback are in history (Eagles history) and I never get the right answers.
