To kick off Week 13 in the National Football League, Thursday Night Football heads to the upper Northwest corner of the United States and Seattle. There, NFL Network will air what could be the last gasp for the Philadelphia Eagles as they attempt to keep their extremely slim playoff hopes alive against the Seattle Seahawks.
The game starts at 8:20 p.m. ET after Thursday Night Kickoff hosted by Rich Eisen with accompaniment from several analysts. And of course, you have Brad Nessler, Mike Mayock and Alex Flanagan on the case throughout the game. The NFL Network provides its usual particulars for the game in the following press release.
