This year marks the fourth consecutive season that the Eagles have five scheduled games in prime-time slots, underscoring the team’s prominence and drawing power in the league.
The Eagles’ path to defending their championship title will not be easy, as their strength of schedule reflects a 0.561 rating, making it the fourth hardest in the NFL.
In a notable highlight, the Eagles will have the chance to raise their championship banner during the season opener against the Cowboys. This meeting creates a memorable NFL moment for fans, as it will mark the second time in franchise history that the Eagles have hosted the Cowboys in a Week 1 matchup, the first occurring in 1970.
The Eagles will also have a bye week in Week 9, splitting the season into two distinct portions. This will allow the team time to regroup before continuing with the latter half of their schedule.
Further complicating the season is the transition to a new offensive coordinator, Kevin Patullo, who will be taking over following the departure of Kellen Moore. This change may affect team dynamics and strategies as the Eagles seek to maintain their competitive edge.
In total, both contests against the Washington Commanders are scheduled for the final three weeks of the season, potentially pivotal matchups as the Eagles aim for playoff positioning.
As the 2025 season approaches, fans and analysts alike are eager to see how the Eagles will navigate this challenging schedule and whether they can repeat their success from the previous year.
