The Philadelphia Eagles are going to be one of the most anticipated teams to watch on the NFL calendar this season, thanks to a thrilling Super Bowl appearance and an NFC Championship last year. Philadelphia won a franchise-record 14 regular season games and cruised through the NFC playoffs en route to Super Bowl LVII — losing on a last-second field goal to the Kansas City Chiefs.
Based on opponent win percentage from last season, the Eagles have the hardest strength of schedule in the league (.566). Included in that schedule are a Super Bowl rematch with the Chiefs, and NFC Championship Game rematch with the San Francisco 49ers (Week 13), and a Christmas Day showdown with the New York Giants at Lincoln Financial Field (Week 16).
