Philadelphia Eagles schedule: Comparing two ugly three-game stretches

Two more tough games on an early and rough two-game stretch. 

In Week 5, there’s a game at Heinz Field versus an always scrappy Steelers team.

It appears that Ben Roethlisberger will be back. Is this his final attempt to make a run at a Super Bowl? It isn’t a guarantee, but here’s what we can probably guarantee. We know a Mike Tomlin-coached team will always give its best effort.

A home game follows that one in Week 6. That falls on October 18th versus 2019’s league MVP Lamar Jackson and a high-powered Ravens team that added J. K. Dobbins and Devin Duvernay to an offense that was already explosive.

Oh, and they got better on defense too after adding Patrick Queen, Justin Madubuike, and Malik Harrison.

Week 4 to Week 6 presents an ugly stretch of games, yes, but even with that being said, it pales in comparison to what Philly faces at the end of the year. Let’s all fast forward to what happens once we arrive at Week 12.
