Philadelphia Eagles fans are just a few days away from learning when and where they will play their 17 games in the 2026 NFL season.
The Eagles have a ton of different storylines from the offseason, making them one of the more intriguing teams to watch this year. Bleacher Report writer Kristopher Knox made a prediction about Philly, noting that he sees them playing five primetime games during the season.
"The Eagles failed to defend their Super Bowl title and were bounced during the wild-card round last season. However, they remain a high-profile team that will carry intrigue into the 2026 season. Will A.J. Brown be with Philadelphia by Week 1? Will head coach Nick Sirianni be on the hot seat if the Eagles struggle early? Will inexperienced offensive coordinator Sean Mannion be in over his head? How will new additions like Marquise Brown and Makai Lemon fit into the offense? Can Philly and quarterback Jalen Hurts continue to co-exist in what ESPN's Tim McManus and Jeremy Fowler called a "crossroads" season? Fans will have questions about the defending NFC East champs, and the NFL knows that they'll tune in to have them answered. On top of that, the league has a tendency to spotlight the NFC East—we can probably pencil Philly in for a pair of divisional prime-time games right now."
Eagles' offseason drama makes them a hot ticket team to watch in 2026
Most football fans are just curious to see how the Eagles handle life without A.J. Brown and having Sean Mannion as the offensive coordinator. This will also directly affect how Hurts plays with his back against the wall in 2026 as he tries to prove that he can still be the starting quarterback.
Philly's offense looks very different in some ways in 2026, with the wide receiver room looking very different. The Eagles added two young pass catchers in the draft, with Lemon and Eli Stowers ready to be the future for Hurts in the passing game.
If the roster talent wasn't enough, just the mere idea that the Eagles will have some kind of drama going on during the week makes them must-watch TV. Whether it's about Hurts and Sirianni, there is always something going on with the Eagles.
