Eagles vs. Falcons 2015: Game time, TV schedule, online streaming, channel, odds and more

Learn more about the Eagles-Falcons match-up that is set to take place Monday night in Atlanta.

Bill Streicher-USA TODAY Sports

The Philadelphia Eagles 2015 NFL schedule kicks off on Monday night as the team is scheduled to play the Atlanta Falcons on ESPN Monday Night Football. After a very long offseason, Eagles football is finally back.

This opening game might be the most anticipated Eagles' season opener in quite some time. The team looked historically dominant in preseason having outscored opponents 83-17 in the first half of the first three exhibition games. Philadelphia's summer success won't mean much if the team doesn't carry over to the real games, but it's fair to say everyone is really excited about this Eagles team. A lot of media members are now picking the Eagles to win the Super Bowl this year.

Before the hype train gets too out of control, the Eagles need to prove they can win when it counts. One could argue the team is well-equipped to do just that. The Eagles look much different now than they did at the end of the 2014 season. Nick Foles and LeSean McCoy are among the notable players gone. Sam Bradford and DeMarco Murray, whom no one ever expected to be on the Eagles, are now two of Philadelphia's most important players. The oft-injured Bradford will be playing his first regular season game since 2013, so this is obviously a huge deal for him.

The Eagles are favored to beat the Falcons, and for good reason. There are serious concerns about Atlanta's shaky offensive line and suspect defense. Philadelphia could take advantage of them in those areas. On the other hand, the Eagles and their new-look secondary will need to prove they can handle the Atlanta passing attack. This one should be entertaining.

Here's everything you need to know about how to watch the game.
