Eagles Wild Card Matchup Scheduled For Monday Night
The Eagles’ playoff run kicks off on January 15 at 8 PM with their rematch of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
The game, the Eagles’ fifth Monday night game of the season, will air on ESPN and ABC, according to an official release. The game will also be featured on Monday Night Football with Peyton and Eli Manning, colloquially known as the “ManningCast,” which will air on ESPN2.
The game is the last of six games that begin on Saturday, January 13, in what the NFL dubs its “Super Wild Card Weekend.” The AFC has the first games of the weekend, with two games occurring on January 13. The Cleveland Browns will face the Houston Texans at 4:30 PM on NBC. Then, the Kansas City Chiefs will host their opponent at 8 PM on Peacock. (That opponent is still to be determined based on the outcome of the Sunday night game.) The last game, which features the remaining two AFC teams, will air at 1 PM on CBS.
The NFC also has two games occurring on January 14. The Green Bay Packers will face off against the Dallas Cowboys in the 4:30 time slot on Fox. Then, the Los Angeles Rams will face off against the Detroit Lions on Sunday night at 8 PM on NBC.
