The Philadelphia Eagles will be trying to return to the Super Bowl in 2024-25 after a hiccup last season.
The Eagles began last season looking extremely strong, but they fell apart as the season went along. In addition to changing their offense and maintaining consistency, the Eagles will also need to have some luck with their schedule.
Who do the Philadelphia Eagles face in 2024? Is their schedule easy or difficult? Let's look at the Eagles' schedule and consider their prospects.

Who Do the Philadelphia Eagles Face in 2024?
The Philadelphia Eagles will have nine home games in 2024 against the Atlanta Falcons, Carolina Panthers, Cleveland Browns, Green Bay Packers, Jacksonville Jaguars, and Pittsburgh Steelers in addition to the usual games against their division rivals in the Dallas Cowboys, New York Giants, and Washington Commanders.

However, the Eagles' first game of the season will be an international game at Arena Corinthians in Sao Paulo, Brazil. That will count as a home game for the Eagles, so they will actually only play eight games in Philadelphia.
The Eagles will travel to Tampa Bay, Baltimore, New Orleans, Cincinnati, and Los Angeles for road games against the Buccaneers, Ravens, Saints, Bengals, and Rams, respectively, while also facing their traditional division opponents once each on the road.
Having to face every team in the AFC North is going to be difficult. In 2023, three of the AFC North teams made the playoffs, and the Bengals only missed the playoffs by a small margin even with Joe Burrow missing much of the season.
How Difficult is the Eagles' 2024 Schedule?
While the AFC North is a tough division to face, the NFC South is one of the weakest divisions in football. It all averages out to a somewhat easy schedule. Philly's 2024 opponents combined for a .491 record in 2023, which makes their schedule the 11th-easiest in the league.
The Eagles' schedule may be more difficult than it looks on paper, though. For example, the Eagles are the only team in the NFC East to face the Green Bay Packers. While the Packers only won nine games last season, they peaked at the end of the season, and they could be a double-digit win team in 2024.
The Rams are also a unique opponent that the other NFC East teams don't have to face. L.A. is almost certainly one of the top two teams in the NFC West, which means the Eagles face the first- or second-toughest schedule in the NFC East. (The Giants' schedule looks tougher than the Eagles' schedule only because the Giants have to face both the Eagles and the Cowboys.)
