How Eagles’ divisional round opponent will be decided originally appeared on NBC Sports Philadelphia
The Eagles were able to take care of business on Sunday, beating the Packers 22-10, and now they’ll wait to find out who they will host in the divisional round next week.
It’ll be either the Buccaneers, Rams or Vikings coming to the Linc.
First up, keep an eye on (6) Commanders at (3) Buccaneers on Sunday Night Football.
If the Buccaneers beat the Commanders, then the Bucs will be coming to Lincoln Financial Field next weekend. They would be the second-lowest remaining seed in the NFC no matter what happens on Monday night.
This would be the Eagles’ third playoff matchup against the Buccaneers in four years under Nick Sirianni. The Eagles lost in the wild card round to the Bucs in 2021 and 2023.
But if the Bucs lose to the Commanders, then the (1) Lions would host the (6) Commanders in the divisional round and the Eagles would host the winner of (5) Vikings vs. (4) Rams in the Monday Night Football game.
The Eagles have not played the Vikings this year but they lost to the Buccaneers 33-16 in Week 4 and beat the Rams 37-20 in Week 12.
