Examining the 3 toughest games on the Philadelphia Eagles schedule

The Philadelphia Eagles have a favorable 2020 NFL schedule, but it is not the most daunting.

The defending NFC East champions won’t have an easy road back to the playoffs, as the Eagles will match up against several postseason contenders this year, with a three-game stretch from hell late in the year.

Even with some high-profile matchups, they’ll play some really tough games, but no task bigger than these 3 opponents.

As physical and as athletic a team you’ll ever find, the Ravens had the most wins in the NFL last season and have the ultimate weapon in NFL MVP, Lamar Jackson.

Jackson is coming off a season in which he passed for over 3,000 yards with 36 passing touchdowns through the air. As a runner, Jackson was one of the NFL’s best, rushing for 1,200 yards and another 7 touchdowns.

The Ravens have Marquise Brown, Mark Andrews, and a new weapon in former Ohio State running back J.K. Dobbins.
