Pretty sure they were in the visitors locker room as AFC was the “home” team this year. Interestingly though the league was going to make an exception if the Vikings made it and they’d be able to use their regular facilities at the stadium.

Most stadiums have more than two locker rooms.

I certainly hope so.

Maybe Im missing something, but he literally listed every team that is scheduled to visit the eagles. Of course we're an option

3 teams are the most likely according to Schefter. Us, Vikes, & Falcons. 

[Davidson Deac II]

I am betting Cowboys.

If we do, that would be what, 6 of the last 8 seasons we start on the road?

cowboys always open up vs the giants.

While I'll agree it's been a trend, three in a row is hardly "always."

2016 - NYG

Three straight years of playing the Super Bowl Champ.

Should be the Saints or Falcons. But they will probably play them week 15 and 16.

Exactly! Its complete bullshit at this point and pretty unheard of for a team to keep  getting shafted of a home opener.

of course this is a possibility. this is just based on their schedule of home games and playoff teams. we make no sense for an opening season story line. only the Vikes or division game makes sense.

I can’t see them wasting the cowboys game that early. That game isn’t guaranteed big ratings. They will save that one to go up against the World Series in October. 

 

My guess is either Giants. New head coach, big market, and likely getting Odell back.
