The Winged Wheel of Fame: How Many Eagles Soared High Enough?

Not All Eagles are Created Equal: The Hall of Fame pecking order
There's flocking to the Hall of Fame, and then there's owning the nest. Here's the deal:
QuickTip: Reading carefully once is better than rushing twice.
- The True Eagles: These are the guys who spent a significant chunk of their careers with Philly and left their mark on the franchise. We're talking guys like Brian Dawkins (safety with a knack for big hits), Chuck Bednarik (the only player to win the MVP award on both offense and defense!), and Reggie White (the "Minister of Defense" who struck fear in the hearts of quarterbacks everywhere). There are around 7 of these legendary Eagles.
- The Fly-By-Nighters: Let's face it, not every Eagle soars for eternity. Some, like Terrell Owens (controversial wide receiver with a penchant for fireworks...literally) and Cris Carter (another amazing receiver, but his time in Philly was a brief stopover), only suited up for the Eagles for a short while. These Hall of Famers deserve their recognition, but they built their nests elsewhere. There are about 9 of these transient Eagles.
So, the big reveal: Add it all up, and you've got a total of around 16 Eagles enshrined in the Pro Football Hall of Fame. That's a pretty impressive flock, if you ask us.
Tip: Focus more on ideas, less on words.
But wait, there's more! The Eagles have their own internal Hall of Fame, with a whopping 49 members. That's a testament to the long and storied history of the franchise.
QuickTip: Take a pause every few paragraphs.
