Eagles-Buccaneers: Start time, channel, how to watch and stream

Old Eagles foe Tom Brady will be calling his first Birds game today when Philly takes on Baker Mayfield and the Bucs.

The Philadelphia Eagles (2-1) will take on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (2-1) on Sunday in Tampa Bay, with a former foe calling the action on TV for Fox.

Tom Brady, who went 1-1 against the Eagles in Super Bowls during his decorated 23-year playing career, is in the booth this season as Fox’s top NFL analyst. Today’s game will be just the fourth he’s called in his brief broadcasting career, and the first that doesn’t involve the Dallas Cowboys. Reviews of his first three games have been mixed, but he’s been mostly solid and wasn’t afraid to criticize throws made by Dak Prescott last week.

“Obviously, it’s improve each week and improve each year,” Brady told Fox News. “There’s no hiding. It’s not like there’s really a practice field.”

Calling the game alongside Brady is veteran play-by-play announcer Kevin Burkhardt, who called Super Bowl LVII between the Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs and grew up a Birds fan in North Jersey. Both Erin Andrews and Tom Rinaldi will be reporting from the sidelines of Raymond James Stadium, which is expected to be a bit soggy after Hurricane Helene passed through the region.

Of course, Brady spent his final three seasons with the Buccaneers, so Birds fans might get a reverse dose of what Atlanta Falcons fans experienced in Week 2, when Jason Kelce turned an entire quarter of Monday Night Football into a Eagles love fest. If last week was any indication, fans will be forced to sit through a Fox ad featuring Brady speaking to past versions of himself at least a couple of times during the broadcast.

Sunday’s game against the Bucs will almost certainly not be the last time Brady calls the Birds this season. As of now he’s slated to call two other Eagles games — Week 15 against the Pittsburgh Steelers and Week 17 versus the Dallas Cowboys. He’ll also call the NFC Championship game and Super Bowl LIX in New Orleans, if the Eagles make it that far.

One final TV note — while Brady is calling the game, Eagles-Bucs isn’t Week 4′s national game (that would be Chiefs vs. Los Angeles Chargers on CBS at 4:25 p.m Philly time). Outside of the Philadelphia TV market, Eagles-Bucs will also air in Buffalo, Cleveland, Nashville, Kansas City, Dallas, Las Vegas, and across most of New York, Pennsylvania, and Florida.

Here’s everything you need to know to watch or stream Eagles-Bucs today:
