Miles Sanders says there's a great feeling among members of the Philadelphia Eagles.

"We all feel like we're on an All-Star team, so we feel great," Sanders told CBS Sports' Cody Benjamin. "We feel unstoppable, I'm not gonna lie."

He added: "The vibes are great, always have been. (Head coach) Nick Sirianni is doing a great job just keeping the vibes right, the chemistry good. We compete a lot in practice. But we've gotta see. It's gonna come down to camp, taking it day by day, putting everything together."

Excitement has grown for the Eagles since the team acquired Pro Bowl wide receiver A.J. Brown in a blockbuster trade with the Tennessee Titans in April.

Brown joins an offense that already features the likes of Sanders in the backfield, Jalen Hurts under center, and DeVonta Smith and Dallas Goedert as receiving threats.

The Eagles have also bolstered their defense with the likes of first-round defensive tackle Jordan Davis and third-round linebacker Nakobe Dean, in addition to free-agent signee Haason Reddick.

Sirianni led the Eagles to the postseason in 2021, his first year as head coach, though the team was one-and-done. Philadelphia has made the playoffs in three of the four years since its Super Bowl LII victory but has yet to exceed nine wins in each of those four campaigns.
