Eagles 07/08 Schedule released
We already knew who the Eagles would be playing and where... we just didn't know when. In fact, we pretty much know who and where the Eagles play through 2009.
Remember last year when we all thought the early part of the schedule was so easy and the last part, capped off by three straight road NFC East games, was impossible? Remember that before you get too optimistic/pessimistic after seeing this year's schedule..
Without further ado...
Sun., Sept. 9 @ Green Bay 1 p.m. FOX
Mon., Sept. 17 Redskins 8:30 p.m. ESPN*
Sun., Sept. 23 Detroit 1 p.m. FOX
Sun., Sept. 30 @ Giants 8:15 p.m. NBC*

* denotes nationally televised games
4 Primetime games with 3 against the NFC East. 6 national games in all. Nice.
ESPN.com strength of schedule in lower half of the league. This year's opponents were a combined .500 last year. Ironically the Bills and Raiders have the hardest schedules this year.

Sweet!
I also was afraid I'd miss the Sept 30 game because I'll be at the Phillies last game. I don't particularly care about the Phillies, so I'm glad the Eagles game it at night.
And at face value, there seems to be nothing too onerous about the schedule. Away at Dallas and NO back to back is tough, but there's no "three divisional games on the road" type of thing that jumps out at me.

It's hard to say...
that dec. 16th game will be big. I'm surpised that they come to us first again.
BG, i know what you said about being optimistic, but just like last year, we have a hell of a shot at being 5-0 to start the season.
To me, the make or break part of the season is New England through Dallas... we win 3 outta 4 and i think we get a bye

Any predictions Bleed Green?

I think this is an 11 win team
I think we win 5 of 6 games in the division.
@ New Orleans as the 2nd game of back to back road games scares me. @ Minnesota actually bothers me a bit as a sandwich game between a big one with the Bears and a Dallas game. Miami is also a possible trap game.
Other than the obvious difficult games on the schedule, like NE, those are the only little schedule quirks that worry me.

It's nice to see the schedule when we're good.
i remember 2004 I predicted 15-1... Eskin said 16-0... i'm not that bold this year... i'll hold my tongue for a few weeks and have a prediction on my blog
