Eagles vs. Bucs: How to watch, game time, TV schedule, streaming and more

The Philadelphia Eagles (2-0) are back on the road for a Week 3 Monday Night Football game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (2-0).

There is no doubt that OC Brian Johnson established the run game in Philly against the Vikings, with D’Andre Swift carrying the load to a tune of 175 rushing yards and a TD. It’s too early to know if that kind of production is sustainable, but it certainly helped when the offense struggled in the passing game... again.

Head coach Nick Sirianni credited the defenses they’ve played through two weeks — Bill Belichick’s defense and Brian Flores’ defense — for limiting their ability to make explosive plays. Quarterback Jalen Hurts wanted to keep the main thing the main thing, which is winning, so as long as they’re winning it doesn’t matter how and he’s not interested in talking about inefficiencies elsewhere.

Still, as good as it is to run the ball down the throats of an opposing defense, even Jason Kelce admitted it was nice to get one long ball to the end zone and get off the field. The Eagles’ offensive line had to work hard in Week 2 in support of the run game, but did exactly what was needed.

The Eagles defense will get James Bradberry and Reed Blankenship back, which will be a huge boost to the secondary. They’ll need the help facing a Baker Mayfield-led offense that has the Bucs undefeated through two games. But, there’s few pass rushes as effective as the Eagles right now, and it’ll be a good challenge for the young guys.

This will also be the first chance to see new punter, Braden Mann, and how special teams might look a little different — hopefully better — than it did the past two weeks.

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