10 best games on 2018 NFL schedule
4. Philadelphia Eagles vs. Jacksonville Jaguars
This one could actually turn out to be one of the best games of the entire season if the cards fall in the right places, which is again weird to say about the Jacksonville Jaguars.
This game has a ton of different angles to work with. It’s the best team in the NFC squaring off against the fastest-rising team in the AFC. The defending Super Bowl champions against the team that came up just short on the AFC side of the bracket. The Eagles trying to prove their Super Bowl win wasn’t a fluke, while the Jaguars try to prove that they’re still a threat in their conference and the NFL as a whole.
In the end, the Eagles may have lost their underdog status, and the Jaguars may be the ones to take over that mantle real soon. They’re very similar teams, with incredible defenses and weird quarterback situations to deal with. The Eagles will have Carson Wentz back and Nick Foles waiting in the background, and the Jaguars will have Blake Bortles looking to prove he’s worth the trust the Jaguars have placed in him over the years.
All of these factors and the talent on both rosters makes this an immediate game to watch in 2018, and international fans will love the fact that the game will be played in London. Whatever week this game goes down, anyone on the East Coast will want to get up at 9:30 a.m. and prepare for a long day of great football.
