After a historic victory at the Super Bowl LIX, soccer fans are eagerly awaiting news about who the Philadelphia Eagles will play in Thursday night’s NFL opener.
As we wait for the 2025 NFL schedule release, we predict that the Eagles will be able to start the season at home on September 4th.
Who will the Philadelphia Eagles play in their first week’s opening game?
After a 40-22 victory with the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LIX, all eyes will appear in the Philadelphia Eagles in their upcoming NFL campaigns.
The Eagles have eight Week opponents based on their home game, with some teams likely being two-time Super Bowl Champion opponents than others.
The eight teams that will be playing against Philadelphia at Lincoln Financial Field on September 4th are the New York Giants, Las Vegas Raiders, Dallas Cowboys, Denver Broncos, Washington Commander, Chicago Bears, Detriot Lions and Los Angeles Rams.
Of these eight franchises, there are several possibilities over the other franchises. On the surface, Saquon Berkley and Jalen are scarcely hurt, and rarely stand alongside the Broncos, Giants, Cowboys and Raiders. This leaves the rum, bear, commander and lion behind.
Of these four, it must be said that the Eagles vs. Rams will hit the sweet spot. The Eagles opener Rams check most boxes for what the NFL normally wants in the opener, as long as the NFL can resist offering an NFC East Matchup.
If it’s not the Rams, it could be a Detriot Lion. The only sticking point here is whether the NFL wants to use that matchup for opening night, or if they want to save it for Super Sunday during the midseason.
The first week encounter between the commander and the Eagles could be an appetizing game given the fact that Washington is the only team to beat Philadelphia from last October until the Super Bowl.
Another fun opener, and perhaps the third or fourth opener, will be the Bears in the Eagles tie. The story of Ben Johnson’s NFL coaching debut and Caleb Williams’ second season makes sense, but the Rams, Lion, or Commander seems most likely.
When will the Eagles’ NFL season opener be announced?
Although not officially confirmed, there was speculation that Philadelphia’s NFL 2025 season opening game will be announced on Monday, May 12th.
This has not yet been confirmed and is merely rumored, but there are several reports showing that the opening opponent for Thursday night of Eagles Week on September 4th will be announced at NBC’s “Today” show on Monday night.
As the defending Super Bowl champion, the Eagles will launch their 2025 NFL campaign at Lincoln Financial Field.
By the time they went to the field for the 2025 season opener, it’s been almost seven months since the Philadelphia Eagles won the Super Bowl LIX.
Football fans are eagerly waiting for anyone who cooks for Jalen Hurts, AJ Brown, Saquon Barkley and Co’s regular season opener.
When will the full 2025 NFL schedule be released?
The full 2025 NFL Schedule release is expected to be officially announced on Wednesday, May 14th.
The entire 2025 NFL regular season schedule has been confirmed, and football fans across the US are eagerly awaiting news about who their opponent will be in the first week or later.
As of today, the only thing football fans know is that the Eagles will kick off a new season at home on Thursday, September 4th.
Stay tuned for the full announcement of the 2025 NFL Schedule Release.
