EricAllenPick6 Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 Quote The Philadelphia Eagles' schedule for 2020 was released Thursday. The regular season kicks off with the Houston Texans visiting the Kansas City Chiefs on Thursday, Sept. 10 (8:20 p.m. ET, NBC). The opening doubleheader for Monday Night Football will feature the Pittsburgh Steelers at the New York Giants (7:10 p.m. ET, ESPN) and the Tennessee Titans at the Denver Broncos (10:20 p.m. ET) on Monday, Sept. 14.

The first is the October gantlet featuring the 49ers, Steelers and Ravens, and the other is a December trip to Green Bay sandwiched by home games against the Seahawks and Saints. This schedule is a mix of serious contenders and some teams on the come-up, and might prove trickier than the initial strength of schedule forecasts. Prime-time performers The Eagles are slated to play in four regular-season prime-time games, including on Monday Night Football against the Seahawks in a rematch of last season's wild-card playoff game. This is the 14th straight season Philadelphia has been scheduled to play four or more games under the lights. It all comes down to Dallas Boy, that trip in late December to Jerry's World has make-or-break written all over it. Last year's NFC East crown was essentially decided in a Dec. 22 game between these two in Philly with the Eagles winning 17-9. This time, it's in Big D for what promises to be a heavyweight match with serious playoff implications. Not a terrible prediction. I think we open with a win but could easily see us dropping the 2nd game against the Redskins. I think we lose in Arizona (we always lose in Arizona), but beat the Browns. 10 wins sounds right.

Erie Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 With the probability of a truncated off-season, I would imagine that if the season occured, play would be sloppy for the first month. Teams coming into with continuity-- same coach, same core of players-- would have an advantage. I'd think the Eagles have an edge in the division initially. We take the opener. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perforator Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 How can he predict a loss to the Redskins in the first game but a win in the last. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I'm kind of with you there, too. Like @Erie said, teams with new coaches / systems are going to be severely disadvantaged early on. I would heavily favor the us to win that one, but you never know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uscg-green Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 And seriously when did the seachickens become part of our division? We play them every year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
