We already knew which teams they were going to face but now we know exactly who the Eagles will play each week in the 2010 season:
Week 1: 9/12 Packers @ Eagles, 4:15 pm
Week 2: 9/19 Eagles @ Lions, 1 pm
Week 3: 9/26 Eagles @ Jaguars, 4:05 pm
Week 4: 10/3 Redskins @ Eagles, 4:15 pm
Week 5: 10/10 Eagles @ Niners, 8:20 pm (Sunday Night)
Week 6: 10/17 Falcons @ Eagles, 1:00 pm
Week 7: 10/24 Eagles @ Titans, 1:00 pm
Week 8: BYE
Week 9: 11/7 Colts @ Eagles, 4:15 pm
Week 10: 11/15 Eagles @ Redskins, 8:30 pm (Monday Night)
Week 11: 11/21 Giants @ Eagles, 8:20 pm (Sunday Night)
Week 12: 11/28 Eagles @ Bears, 1:00 pm
Week 13: 12/2 Texans @ Eagles, 8:20 pm (Thursday Night)
Week 14: 12/12 Eagles @ Cowboys, 8:20 pm (Sunday Night)
Week 15: 12/19 Eagles @ Giants, 1:00 pm
Week 16: 12/26 Vikings @ Eagles, 1:00 pm
Week 17: 1/2 Cowboys @ Eagles, 1:00 pm
Note the Sunday Night games in Weeks 5, 11, 14, the Monday Night game in Week 10 and the Thursday Night game in Week 13.
Although you can never judge how good a team will be in April, this schedule appears pretty tough at first glance. Things seem to start pretty easy for the Eagles in the first 7 weeks with the only tough opponent being the Packers. Of course, that Week 4 matchup with the Redskins is also going to be pretty entertaining. After the Week 8 bye, things get much harder for the Birds as they have to play the Colts, Vikings and 5 divisional games, including the traditional season finale against the Cowboys.
We already knew the schedule would look pretty difficult on paper since the Eagles have to face some tough teams from the AFC South and the NFC North. Of course, it all usually comes down to how the Eagles fare in those 6 games against the rest of the NFC East, which have suddenly become even more interesting with Donovan McNabb landing in Washington. How the Eagles do against the Redskins, Cowboys and Giants usually determines whether they are a playoff team.
