Eagles vs. Saints game watching guide and TV coverage map
With the NFC East title up for grabs, the Eagles are back at home in Week 17.
Happy New Year!
The Philadelphia Eagles (13-2) are finally back home in Week 17, after three roads games in a row, and will host the New Orleans Saints (6-9) early-afternoon on New Years Day.
Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni said on Friday that Jalen Hurts still had a chance to play in this matchup, but was the QB was then listed as doubtful in the final injury report. Gardner Minshew did enough good things in last week’s loss to the Cowboys to feel comfortable with him starting this game. Sirianni wouldn’t disclose how the two quarterbacks split reps during the week, but any additional first team reps for Minshew will be beneficial.
The head coach also wouldn’t name who will step in for Lane Johnson, saying that it’s nice to have so many options, including Jordan Mailata, Andre Dillard, and Jack Driscoll. The Eagles only need one more win to secure the NFC East title and the overall No. 1 spot heading into the postseason, so Sirianni was not interested in giving away any kind of advantage to the Saints.
Philly’s defensive front has been absolutely dominant, but the secondary is still trying to overcome the 3rd-and-30 play they gave up against the Cowboys. With Avonte Maddox out, and C.J. Gardner-Johnson yet to be activated, it’ll be on Josiah Scott to fill that CB role. Scott has done it before, but having extra depth in the backfield is growing increasingly important.
Here’s everything you need to know about how to watch the game.
