What channel is Eagles vs. Washington on today? Time, TV schedule for Week 1 NFL game
by Thomas SchlarpThe first Sunday of the long-awaited 2020 NFL season finally gets under way this weekend and with it brings a classic rivalry between two NFC East foes. Without any preseason games to draw upon, the matchup will be the first time either team has played an opponent in over eight months.
Philadelphia finished the 2019 regular season with a 9-7 record and as NFC East champions but was upended in the Wild Card round by Seattle after Carson Wentz was injured early in the game. Wentz's health will go a long way towards whether or not the Eagles can win their division again, but should he miss time, 2020 second round draft pick Jalen Hurts could get the call to see if he can replicate the success he had at Oklahoma and Alabama. Wentz also has a new weapon in wideout Jalen Reagor after the Eagles selected the former TCU standout with the 21st pick in the draft.
Looking to slow that Philadelphia offense will be Chase Young, the second overall pick in the draft, and his counterparts on one of the most talented defensive lines in the NFL. Washington finished 2019 a disappointing 3-13, but there is some hope headed into this season for Dwayne Haskins first full year as the starting quarterback. The Washington Football Team had a busy offseason beginning with the hiring of head coach Ron Rivera and dropping its controversial nickname.
Philadelphia hasn't lost a game to Washington since 2016, when Kirk Cousins was still the starting quarterback, and is about a touchdown favorite heading into the game.
