The Eagles (8-0) are off on Sunday after a 29-17 win over the Texans on Thursday night, which was Philadelphia’s first matchup on Amazon Prime.
With the team not expected back at the NovaCare Complex until Tuesday, Sunday’s Week 9 action offers plenty of opportunity for Eagles fans to scout potential playoff opponents while even looking ahead to a looming Super Bowl matchup.
We’re previewing seven key games Philly fans should watch this relaxing Sunday.
Baltimore @ New Orleans 8:15 PM
Philadelphia plays 3-5 New Orleans in a few weeks, and the Saints’ 2023 first-round pick belongs to the Eagles.
A loss to the Ravens puts the Birds closer to a top-five draft pick.
Tennessee @ Kansas City 8:20 PM
The Eagles will face the Titans in a few weeks, and the Chiefs offer a potential Super Bowl opponent to watch.

Both teams have three wins on the season but sit within earshot of postseason play and are the past two defending Super Bowl champions.

Seattle @ Arizona 4:05 PM
The Seahawks are 5-3 on the season, in first place in the NFC West, and would currently be the No. 4 seed in the playoffs.
