Eagles vs. Seahawks: TV Schedule, Live Stream, Radio, Game Time and More
There isn't a lot to be excited about in a game between the Philadelphia Eagles and Seattle Seahawks.
Both division winners from a year ago hoping for another crack at the postseason, the Eagles and Seahawks are both on the outside looking in already in Week 13.
The two teams, both 4-7, must win out if they even want a shot at the postseason.

Projecting Every NFL Team's Starting Lineup 🔮

Rookie WRs Who Will Outplay Their Draft Value 📈
If we were to be honest, though, that is highly unlikely considering the current records of the teams in front of them.
That said, crazier things have happened, and it is the only NFL game on Thursday.
Where: CenturyLink Field; Seattle, Washington
When: Thursday, Dec. 1 at 8:20 p.m. EST
Watch: NFL Network
Listen: Westwood One, Sirius 92 (PHI) and 93 (SEA)
Betting Line: Off
What's At Stake?
All and nothing. Neither team is making the postseason with eight losses, and there is a slim, damn slim chance that it will happen with seven losses.
Seattle squeaked into the playoffs last year because their division was so pitiful. This year, however, the San Francisco 49ers already have more wins than the Seahawks had last year when they made the postseason.
The Eagles are chasing the Cowboys and Giants in the NFC East and unlikely to catch either of them and won't earn a Wild Card berth with seven losses.

Fantasy Start 'Em, Sit 'Em, Sleeper
Start 'Em: LeSean McCoy, RB, Eagles
Philadelphia's running back is the top rusher in the league and will be working against the league's No. 11 rushing defense. Even if Vick is back on the field, they'll want to run the football anyway.
Sit 'Em: Vince Young, QB, Eagles
There is a good chance Vick makes the start, but even if he doesn't, VY has thrown three TDs and five INTs in his last two starts.
Sleeper: Marshawn Lynch, RB, Seahawks
The Eagles have gotten better against the run, but Lynch has surprised before.
What They're Saying
The Philadelphia Inquirer says:
"OK, LET'S NOT make more of this than what actually happened.
There is no question that a group of disgruntled Eagles fans tried to start a "Fire Andy" chant in the third quarter of the Birds' 38-20 loss to the New England Patriots at Lincoln Financial Field.
In fact, it happened twice.
Let's not exaggerate, however, because neither chant gained much momentum nor lasted more than 30-or-so seconds.
But that doesn't mean that fans didn't make a powerful statement to Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie about their displeasure with the sorry state of their beloved franchise.
They actually delivered a message to Lurie more powerful than any "Andy Must Go!" chant.
Eagles fans got out of their high-priced seats and left.
In the 17 years that I've been in Philadelphia, I've seen Eagles fans leave a game early when the cause seemed to be lost, but I don't ever recall them starting a mass exodus with more than 6 minutes left in the third quarter.
"
The Seattle Times says:
"For the first time this season, the Seahawks invented a way to lose a game that they deserved to win. The initial reaction is to call it uncharacteristic, but it's not like the Seahawks have a history of success. They haven't been in this situation enough to develop a characteristic.
Ahead by 10 points with less than 10 minutes remaining, the Seahawks were eyeing a three-game winning streak. They were about to improve their record to 5-6, just one victory from reaching .500 for the first time this season. They were on the cusp of making you wonder if you had dismissed them too soon.
Then they blew it.
"
Eagles Player to Watch: LeSean McCoy, RB
McCoy is looking to stay on top as the league's top rusher as Maurice Jones-Drew closes in fast. The Eagles star currently holds a 10-yard lead and is averaging 5.3 yards per carry.
He's tied with Adrian Peterson for the most rushing touchdowns in the league and continues to be the Eagles best player in a year of complete disappointment.
Seahawks Player to Watch: Earl Thomas, S
Seattle's former first round pick is the team's leading tackler and one of the best young players in the league.
Thomas can cover and play close the line. Keep an eye on No. 29 during the game
Key Matchup: LeSean McCoy vs. Seahawks front seven
The Eagles are going to need McCoy to help them win this football game. A trip to Seattle is never easy (although the Seahawks are as up and down as any team in the league), and Philadelphia will want to control things by running the ball.
The Seahawks have been better than average against the run this year and will need to be better to handle McCoy.
McCoy has rushed for less than 100 yards in three of the last five games; the Eagles have lost all three. The two games he went over 100 the Eagles won.
In fact, McCoy has rushed for over 100 yards in each of the Eagles' four wins.
On the Hotseat: Andy Reid, Head Coach, Eagles
As evidenced by the Philadelphia Inquirer quote, Philadelphia fans are restless. Reid is unlikely to be fired, but if they have a complete collapse, it isn't out of the question. He needs to show some improvement fast.
Prediction: Eagles 24, Seahawks 13
