2025 NFL schedule: Lions, Browns among seven teams with toughest 17-game slates - NFL.com
5) Philadelphia Eagles. Like the Lions, the Eagles have 11 games against 2024 playoff teams. Counting the season opener against the Cowboys, Philly also has at least five prime-time games, and potentially seven, depending on whether late-season games get flexed to night. It’ll be nice having a mini-bye to prepare for the Chiefs in Week 2 following the Week 1 Kickoff Game on Thursday, but facing the Rams (Week 3), Bucs (Week 4) and Broncos (Week 5) makes for a thorny opening five games. The Eagles only have one true West Coast trip, at the Chargers for Monday Night Football in Week 14. But they’ll have two short weeks in December, hosting the Raiders the next Sunday, followed by a Week 16 Saturday game at Washington. The Eagles then close the season with Week 17 at Buffalo and the finale at home against the Commanders. That’s a pretty challenging month. Tough early and tough late. The Eagles look as strong as any recent defending champ and will absolutely be in the mix to win Super Bowl LX, but they’re going to have to run a more challenging gauntlet than last year’s regular-season schedule to get back to the big game.

Biggest takeaway: This is the perfect test for a team that dominated most of the playoffs last January and February, leading chairman and CEO Jeffrey Lurie to muse, “I’d almost like to say that, has there been a better NFL team than the 2024 Eagles?” at the league meetings this spring. The Eagles did lose some key players on the defensive side of the ball in particular, including edge rushers Brandon Graham and Josh Sweat and defensive backs C.J. Gardner-Johnson and Darius Slay Jr., but have kept most of the championship core intact. It’s hard enough to repeat in the division (an NFC East team hasn’t won back-to-back titles since 2004), let alone as Super Bowl champs. Philadelphia has the ability to hoist the Lombardi Trophy again this season but must overcome some history and a very tough slate to do it.

2. Ending the season with a rugged slate is a test. Who knows how it is going to look by then, but as it appears now, the final three-game stretch of the regular season is going to be a doozy. At Washington on Saturday, December 20. At Buffalo and Josh Allen...
