We've discussed this one all week. We have arrived. It's go time. The Philadelphia Eagles visit Florida to tackle the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Both teams are 2-1.
Both teams have an opportunity to establish a stranglehold on the National Football Conference. This could result in a tie-breaker for one or the other that will come into play when we begin discussing the playoffs.
While they aren't rivals per se', we despise the Bucs. We really do. These two teams have met in very important games over the years, and this is an opportunity for both sides to make a statement.
This is a featured game for FOX, so we get the A-team. Wow. Tom Brady is calling an Eagles game.
Carl Cheffers has been an NFL official since the 2000 NFL season. This is his 17th NFL season and his 25th overall. He has also worked in what was then the Pac-10 Conference. He'll be wearing the Number 51 and the white cap.
Here's a look at Scott Novak's full officiating crew. Learn more at footballzebras.com.
The Eagles vs. Buccaneers game will be carried on FOX. We recommend our buddies at Fubo TV for viewing. Watch on NFL Sunday Ticket if you don't live in the coverage area.
Full-game, condensed, and All-22 re-airs can be viewed on NFL Plus after the game. 1 pm EST is the scheduled kickoff time as Hurricane Helene hasn't thrown us off schedule.
