Eagles-Giants: Game time, channel, how to watch and stream

A familiar voice to Philly sports fans will call his first Eagles game this season for Fox.

Eagles fans will hear a familiar voice on Fox during today’s NFC East matchup with the New York Giants.

Joe Davis will handle play-by-play duties on his first Eagles game this season a little more than a month after providing the voice of the Phillies’ unexpected World Series run on Fox. Outside of the wild-card sweep of the St. Louis Cardinals, Davis called every Phillies playoff game, and is probably best remembered for his call of Bryce Harper’s eighth-inning home run that sent Philly to the World Series.

Thanks to the Phillies run, Davis spent a lot of time in Philadelphia, developing a taste for Elixr coffee along the way. While critical Phillies fans once drove former Fox announcer Joe Buck off of Twitter, Davis received almost unanimous praise for his play-by-play during the team’s postseason run.

“I think if the Phillies had gotten swept out of the division series, I don’t know that fans would’ve liked me at all,” Davis told The Inquirer. “I think the main thing is I was delivering good news and some iconic moments ... I guess I am associated now with some really great moments in Philly sports history.”

Fans hope those good moments continue on Sunday. After dominating the Tennessee Titans last week, the Eagles can punch their ticket to the postseason with a win against the Giants, who remain in a wild-card spot despite not winning a game in nearly a month.

“I think at full strength the Giants are scary,” Davis said. “But they’re so banged up, and the defense has just been ravaged by injuries all year. ... And the Eagles are a machine. Last week was as well-rounded a performance as you’re going to find from a team.”

This is Davis’ first year calling a full NFL slate of games. Fox has paired him with veteran analysts Daryl “Moose” Johnston, the former Dallas Cowboys fullback in his 22nd season as an NFL announcer. This may be the duo’s first Eagles game, but it won’t be their last — they’re currently slated to call next week’s matchup against the Chicago Bears at Soldier Field.

Here’s everything you need to know to watch or stream Eagles-Giants this afternoon:

What channel is Eagles-Giants on?

Eagles-Giants is scheduled to kick off at 1 p.m. Eastern on Fox, with Davis and Johnston on the call. Pam Oliver, the longest tenured sideline reporter in the NFL working her 28th season for Fox, will handle updates from MetLife Stadium.

The game will also air on radio in Philadelphia on 94.1 WIP, with longtime announcers Merrill Reese and Mike Quick on the call. WIP host Howard Eskin will handle sideline reporting duties.

Spanish-speaking listeners can tune into La Mega 105.7, where the game will be called by WIP host Rickie Ricardo, Oscar Budejen, and Bill Kulik.

Where can I stream Eagles-Giants?

Eagles vs. Giants will stream on the Fox Sports app, but you’ll need to be a cable subscriber to log in.

The game will also stream on a host of so-called skinny bundles that carry Fox, including fuboTV, YouTube TV, Hulu + Live TV, Sling TV, and DirecTV Stream. Most offer a free trial.

If you’re looking to stream the game for free, your best option if you live near Philadelphia is to use an over-the-air antenna.

Playoff scenarios entering Sunday

The Eagles have the league’s best record at 11-1 and currently hold the NFC’s top playoff spot. But technically, the Birds have yet to officially punch their ticket to the postseason.

That can change today. There are two scenarios where the Eagles will clinch a spot in the playoffs this week:

  1. The Eagles will advance to the postseason with a win against the Giants at MetLife Stadium.

  2. If the Eagles lose, they can still advance to the postseason if the San Francisco 49ers (8-4) lose to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (6-6) AND the Seattle Seahawks (7-5) lose to the Carolina Panthers (4-8)
