Three games stand out on the Philadelphia Eagles’ 2023-2024 schedule, and we’d love to see them in primetime.

The Philadelphia Eagles‘ road to another Super Bowl appearance in 2023 will be a much tougher path than the one they enjoyed last season. This time around, they face nine teams who qualified for postseason contention at the end of the most recent regular season.

The easiest way to the playoffs is by winning the division, and Philly will look to improve on the already-impressive 4-2 mark they notched in 2022. Their only sweep came at the expense of the hated New York Giants last year.

The G-Men have added some firepower this offseason by trading for tight end Darren Waller and drafting wide receiver Jalin Hyatt and running back Eric Gray. Then, there is Dallas. We don’t feel as though we’re asking for too much by requesting a season sweep of the Cowboys. It’s been a while since the Birds have toppled Dallas twice during the regular season, and it would be nice to see them do so again.

In addition to their annual six-game clash versus the members of the NFC East, Philadelphia will take on the four members of the newly competitive AFC East and the NFC West. Believe it or not, this season, we’ll also see Jalen Hurts and Tua Tagovailoa face each other as opponents for the first time as the Miami Dolphins are scheduled to visit the city of Brotherly Love.

The NFC West offers only two threats to the Eagles as the Arizona Cardinals and Los Angeles Rams are rebuilding, but there’s one game featuring a team from the ‘left coast’ that every Birds fan will circle on the calendar.
