The 1973 Philadelphia Eagles season was the franchise's 41st in the National Football League. Although they improved upon their 2–11–1 record of the previous season, they failed to complete a winning record for the seventh consecutive season and failed to reach the playoffs for the thirteenth straight year.




Offseason


At the conclusion of the 1972 season, Philadelphia Eagles' head coach Ed Khayat was dismissed from his position. Shortly after, the team hired Mike McCormack, who had previously served as an assistant coach for the Washington Redskins between 1965 and 1972, as the new head coach.
The Eagles moved their training camp from Albright College in Reading, Pennsylvania, to Widener University in Chester, Pennsylvania, a short distance from Veterans Stadium.
