The Bow Tie Chronicles: A look at the Philadelphia Eagles
In the 39th episode of The Bow Tie Chronicles podcast, Eagles coach Doug Pederson and Falcons free safety Ricardo Allen stop by to help us preview the divisional round playoff game which is set for 4:35 p.m. on Saturday at Lincoln Financial Field.
The Falcons are the first sixth-seed to ever be favored in a playoff game against a No. 1 seed in part because the Eagles lost their starting quarterback Carson Wentz late in the season. Nick Foles, his backup, will start against the Falcons.
