After a week of joint training camp practices with the New York Jets, the Philadelphia Eagles will play their final preseason game Friday night on the “road” — up the street in New Jersey.
Sirianni had mentioned last week that he wasn’t worried about showing too much of the offense against the Jets, despite playing them again during the season, notably because they don’t face off again until December and by then, there will be a whole season of film for New York to watch. Still, you wouldn’t expect the Eagles to give too many looks to their other opponents during Friday’s preseason game. Sure, we’ve gotten a bit of a taste of what this team will look like, but for the most part, game-planning against Sirianni’s first-year offense will be tough the first few weeks of the season.
Wins and losses don’t matter all that much in the preseason, but here’s hoping Friday night’s game is at least more tolerable than last Thursday’s blowout against the Patriots. It’s not that losing 35-0 is a huge deal, but it was wholly unwatchable and several hours of nothingness we’ll never get back.
Here’s everything you need to know about how to watch the game.
