2022 NFL schedule: Game-by-game predictions for the Eagles

Predicting the Philadelphia Eagles’ 2022 season, from Week 1 to Week 18

The Eagles 2022 regular season NFL schedule was revealed back in May and the team is set up to improve on their 9-8 record from last season.

Philadelphia added Haason Reddick and Kyzir White during free agency, and then on draft night, swapped six picks for the chance to draft Jordan Davis and acquire wide receiver A.J. Browns from the Titans via a trade.

The schedule is favorable despite the fact that the Eagles will face four playoff teams from 2021, three from the NFC, along with the Titans, Cardinals, Cowboys, and Packers in high-profile matchups.

The divisional opponents are set and Philadelphia will face off against the NFC North and the AFC South as part of the rotation of games.

Last offseason, we predicted a 10-7 finish, and if not for Nick Sirianni benching his starters in the season finale, we would have prevailed.

With a much-improved roster and star power on defense, we’re predicting a 12-5 finish to the regular season.

The Eagles are an ascending team in the NFC despite being in the midst of a retool and with potential comes respect from the league offices.

Philadelphia is among the league leaders in primetime matchups this season, as they’ll play five games at night, with two of those showdowns coming against division foes, and two matchups against NFC North competition as well.

Depending on the Eagles’ record heading down the stretch there could be room for two more games at night.

Eagles-Saints 2022: New Orleans to have a new head coach after Sean Payton retires

The #Eagles have developed an intense rivalry with the #NewOrleans #Saints and they’ll continue the war in 2022 without head coach #SeanPayton who is set to retire

There were currently six openings for head coaching jobs in the NFL and one of the more intriguing jobs just became vacant after Sean Payton informed the New Orleans Saints that he’ll be stepping away.

Payton, who has three years left on his contract, has coached the Saints since 2006 and had not committed to returning to coach for another season in New Orleans.

Payton is expected to explore television opportunities amid his mini-retirement, where he can recharge and then resurface in 2023 for the job of his choice or potentially a much-hyped scenario where he joins the Cowboys.

Philadelphia was 4-6 against the Saints under Payton but had won the last two matchups with Jalen Hurts at quarterback.

Philadelphia Eagles have the NFL’s hardest remaining schedule

Philadelphia Eagles have the NFL’s hardest remaining schedule

The Philadelphia Eagles knew that they had a loaded regular-season schedule and that’s one of the more frustrating aspects of the team’s 0-2-1 start. As the team heads to the Bay Area to face the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday Night Football, the road back to the playoffs will be a major gauntlet as the Eagles have the NFL’s toughest schedule from here on out.

The Chiefs, Saints, Chargers Ravens, and the hated Dallas Cowboys have the easiest remaining schedule going forward.

The small room for error that the Eagles entered the 2020 season with has evaporated and with the team dealing injuries and a struggling quarterback, Doug Pederson will need to do his finest coaching job if this group is going to rally and snag one of seven NFC playoff spots.
