AI makes game-by-game predictions for the Philadelphia Eagles' 2025 season
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is all the rage, and its uses encompass everything from music to predicting election outcomes and outlining the NFL schedule. The 2025 season can't start soon enough for the Philadelphia Eagles, who have one of the best quarterbacks, running backs, receiving groups, and tight end duos in the NFL.
They will face the gauntlet of juggernauts in the NFC North and the AFC West and division winners in the NFC West, AFC East, and NFC South. With AI being popular these days, we've now sought some additional guidance on how this season will turn out for Philadelphia. We asked Grok to make some predictions about how this season will go for the Eagles.
Here is what Grok came up with for a game-by-game prediction for John Harbaugh's team.
Week 1: Thursday, September 4: Home vs. Dallas Cowboys at 8:20 PM (NBC^)
The Eagles have holes to fill on defense, but Dallas will debut a new head coach, and Dak Prescott will play his first game in nearly a year. It's a close call, but the emotion of the ring ceremony gets the champs over the hump.
Eagles Wire prediction: Win (1-0)
What Grok predicted:
The Eagles open at home, raising their Super Bowl banner against a Cowboys team they dominated twice last season (75-13 combined score). Even with Dallas adding WR George Pickens, Philly's offensive line and home-field energy should overwhelm a Cowboys squad breaking in a new head coach. Dak Prescott's return from injury won't be enough.Prediction: Win (1-0)
Week 2: Sunday, September 14: Away at Kansas City Chiefs at 4:25 PM (FOX)
Philadelphia was in Kansas City's shoes two years ago, entered Arrowhead, and secured a midseason win. Both teams will play an emotional contest in Week 1, but the Chiefs get the nod because they are playing at home.
Eagles Wire prediction: Loss (1-1)
What Grok predicted:
Week 2: @ Kansas City Chiefs (Sun, Sep 14, 4:25 PM ET, FOX)A Super Bowl LIX rematch in Arrowhead. The Eagles crushed Kansas City 40-22 last February, but the Chiefs, led by Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid, are prideful and playing at home. Philly's passing game has been shaky in big moments, and a potential letdown after the opener could tilt this one.
Week 3: Sunday, September 21: Home vs. Los Angeles Rams at 1 PM (FOX)
One week after suffering a road loss to the Chiefs, Jalen Hurts lights up the Rams at home, and Philadelphia moves to 2-1 on the season.
Eagles Wire prediction: Win (2-1)
What Grok Predicts:
Week 3: vs. Los Angeles Rams (Sun, Sep 21, 1:00 PM ET, FOX)The Rams nearly upset the Eagles in last year's snowy divisional round but couldn't stop Saquon Barkley (460 yards in two games). Philly's run game and top-ranked defense should handle a Rams team that hasn't fixed its run defense issues. At home, the Eagles rebound.Prediction: Win (2-1)
Week 4: Sunday, September 28: Away at Tampa Bay Buccaneers at 1 PM (FOX)
The Buccaneers have had the Eagles' number at home over the past three years, and there's nothing to suggest that'll change in an early Sunday affair.
Eagles Wire prediction: Loss (2-2)
What Grok Predicts:
Week 4: @ Tampa Bay Buccaneers (Sun, Sep 28, 1:00 PM ET, FOX)Tampa's been a tough road trip for Philly, with a 33-16 loss last season. Todd Bowles has Jalen Hurts' number (1-4 record). The early-season heat in Tampa and the Bucs' defensive scheme make this a trap game, especially after a tough stretch.
Prediction: Loss (2-2)
Week 5: Sunday, October 5: Home vs. Denver Broncos at 1 PM+ (CBS)
Week 5 was a bye in 2024, but it's the week that Philadelphia inserted Cooper DeJean into the lineup and found their mojo. The same happens for Jihaad Campbell, who assumes the throne after weeks sitting behind Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
Eagles Wire prediction: Win (3-2)
What Grok Predicts:
Week 5: vs. Denver Broncos (Sun, Oct 5, 1:00 PM ET, CBS)Denver's defense is solid, but Bo Nix struggles on the road (85.8 QB rating in 2024). Vic Fangio's familiarity with his former team helps Philly's defense dominate at the Linc. The Eagles' run game wears down the Broncos.
Prediction: Win (3-2
Week 6: Thursday, October 9: Away at New York Giants at 8:15 PM (Prime Video^)
Saquon Barkley returns to MetLife Stadium for part two, but the results are the same as the Eagles get a big win on the road.
Eagles Wire prediction: Win (4-2)
What Grok Predicts:
Week 6: @ New York Giants (Thu, Oct 9, 8:15 PM ET, Prime Video)The Giants are improved but still a bottom-tier team. Philly has owned this matchup recently, and Saquon Barkley's return to MetLife Stadium fuels a motivated performance. The Giants' QB uncertainty (Russell Wilson or a rookie?) won't match Philly's firepower.
Prediction: Win (4-2)
Week 7: Sunday, October 19: Away at Minnesota Vikings at 1 PM+ (FOX)
The Vikings are an intriguing NFC North pick, and J.J. McCarthy performs well at home, but the Eagles confuse the second-year signal-caller late for a much-needed win with playoff ramifications.
Eagles Wire prediction: Win (5-2)
What Grok Predicts:
Week 7: @ Minnesota Vikings (Sun, Oct 19, 1:00 PM ET, FOX)The Vikings went 14-3 last year but start rookie J.J. McCarthy in 2025. Philly's defense, led by Vic Fangio, should exploit McCarthy's inexperience. However, Minnesota's talent and home field make it close. The Eagles pull it out late.
Prediction: Win (5-2)
Week 8: Sunday, October 26: Home vs. New York Giants at 1 PM+ (FOX)
The Giants are much improved, but Philadelphia is the beast of the East for a reason.
Eagles Wire prediction: Win (6-2)
What Grok Predicts:
Week 8: vs. New York Giants (Sun, Oct 26, 1:00 PM ET, FOX)Back-to-back Giants games favor the Eagles, who are far superior. Philly's defense shuts down New York's inconsistent offense, and Hurts exploits their secondary. A comfortable home win.
Prediction: Win (6-2)
Week 10: Monday, November 10: Away at Green Bay Packers at 8:15 PM (ESPN/ABC^)
The NFL season is barrels of emotions, and a team used to being the hunters uses the fuel from the Tush Push getting banned to batter the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau Field.
Eagles Wire prediction: Win (7-2)
What Grok Predicts:
Week 10: @ Green Bay Packers (Sun, Nov 9, 1:00 PM ET, FOX)Post-bye, the Eagles face a Packers team they beat twice last season, including a 22-10 wild-card win. Green Bay's home field isn't as daunting as it once was, but Jordan Love and a strong offense keep it competitive. Philly's run game and defense edge them out.
Prediction: Win (7-2
Week 11: Sunday, November 16: Home vs. Detroit Lions at 8:20 PM+ (NBC^)
NFL seasons are emotional swings, and Philadelphia will have key moments where things just aren't clicking. This Sunday night against a mouthy Lions team isn't one of those nights. Philadelphia digs deep and sends a message to the NFL in a shootout win over Detroit.
Eagles Wire prediction: Win (8-2)
What Grok Predicts:
Week 11: vs. Detroit Lions (Sun, Nov 16, 8:15 PM ET, NBC)The Lions collapsed in last year's playoffs and lost both coordinators, but they're still dangerous. At home, Philly's physicality and top-ranked defense (No. 1 in 2024) overpower Detroit in a statement win.
Prediction: Win (8-2)
Week 12: Sunday, November 23: Away at Dallas Cowboys at 4:25 PM+ (FOX)
Emotions are complex to maintain, and the Eagles lose a nail-biter on the road at Dallas, which is a game the Cowboys badly need.
Eagles Wire prediction: Loss (8-3)
What Grok Predicts:
Week 12: @ Dallas Cowboys (Sun, Nov 23, 1:00 PM ET, FOX)Dallas, fighting for playoff relevance, plays desperate at home. The Eagles swept them last year, but this game is tighter. Fatigue from a tough schedule and Dallas' motivation lead to an upset.
Prediction: Loss (8-3)
Week 13: Friday, November 28: Home vs. Chicago Bears at 3 PM (Prime Video)
Black Friday is a holiday for some, but a refocused Eagles team aims to enter the stretch run with a win over a surging Bears team.
Eagles Wire prediction: Win (9-3)
What Grok Predicts:
Week 13: vs. Chicago Bears (Fri, Nov 28, 3:00 PM ET, Prime Video)A Black Friday game against a surging Bears team. Philly, refocused after a loss, leans on their run game and home crowd to dominate a Chicago squad that's still building.
Prediction: Win (9-3)
Week 14: Monday, December 8: Away at Los Angeles Chargers at 8:15 PM+ (ESPN/ABC^)
Those emotions rear their ugly heads again, but thanks to a few days of extra rest, Philadelphia heads to SoFi Stadium, where they always perform well and harass Justin Herbert in a massive win over the AFC West-leading Chargers.
Eagles Wire prediction: Win (10-3)
What Grok Predicts:
Week 14: @ Los Angeles Chargers (Sun, Dec 7, 4:25 PM ET, CBS)The Chargers play a run-heavy style like Philly, but the Eagles have more talent. Barkley thrives at SoFi Stadium, and Vic Fangio's defense harasses Justin Herbert.
Prediction: Win (10-3)
Week 15: Sunday, December 14: Home vs. Las Vegas Raiders at 1 PM+ (FOX)
Pete Carroll has performed well in Philadelphia with Geno Smith and the AFC West Raiders' steal a win over the Eagles behind Ashton Jeanty.
Eagles Wire prediction: Loss (10-4)
What Grok Predicts:
Week 15: vs. Las Vegas Raiders (Sun, Dec 14, 1:00 PM ET, FOX)Chip Kelly returns to Philly as Raiders OC, but his offense struggles against Fangio's defense. The Eagles' physicality overwhelms a Raiders team led by Geno Smith and rookie Ashton Jeanty.
Prediction: Win (11-3)
Week 16: Saturday, December 20: Away at Washington Commanders at either 4:30 PM or 8 PM+ (FOX)
Philadelphia needs to refocus and send a resounding message to the Commanders in D.C. behind Jalen Hurts and A.J. Brown.
Eagles Wire prediction: Win (11-4)
What Grok Predicts:
Week 16: @ Washington Commanders (Sun, Dec 21, TBD, FOX)An NFC Championship rematch. Jayden Daniels is a rising star, but Philly's top-ranked pass defense and Jalen Carter's interior pressure exploit Washington's weakened O-line (Sam Cosmi injured). A close road win.
Prediction: Win (12-3)
Week 17: Sunday, December 28: Away at Buffalo Bills at 4:25 PM+ (FOX)
Pressure burst pipes, and Philadelphia is starting to apply pressure to the league with a resounding win over Buffalo in a Super Bowl preview.
Eagles Wire prediction: Win (12-4)
What Grok Predicts:
Week 17: @ Buffalo Bills (Sun, Dec 28, 8:20 PM ET, NBC)A potential Super Bowl preview. Josh Allen and the Bills are tough at home, and Philly's passing game struggles against Buffalo's secondary. The Eagles' grueling schedule catches up, leading to a late-season loss.
Prediction: Loss (12-4)
Week 18: Date TBD: Home vs. Washington Commanders (Time and Network TBD)
A season marked by parity and upsets sees the Eagles clinch the NFC East and home-field advantage behind Tanner McKee in a win over Washington.
Eagles Wire prediction: Win (13-4)
What Grok Predicts:
Week 18: vs. Washington Commanders (TBD)The second Commanders game could decide the NFC East. Philly, at home, leans on Barkley and their elite defense to outmuscle Washington, securing the division.
Prediction: Win (13-4)
Grok final analysis:
Final Record: 13-4The Eagles finish 13-4, winning the NFC East but falling short of their 2024 mark due to a tougher schedule and defensive losses. They're battle-tested for the playoffs, likely earning a top-two seed. Saquon Barkley's dominance (2,005 rushing yards in 2024) and Vic Fangio's defensive schemes keep them elite, but repeating as Super Bowl champs will be tough.

Sixers legend Allen Iverson ranked No. 4 shooting guard in NBA history
There is no question that Philadelphia 76ers legend Allen Iverson is one of the best players to ever play this great game. Standing at just 6-feet tall, Iverson would go toe-to-toe with the giants of the league and put on a dominant display of scoring the basketball. In 12 years with the Sixers, across two separate stints, Iverson averaged 27.6 points and 6.1 assists along with 3.9 rebounds. He won the MVP award in 2001 when he led the Sixers to the finals and was able to throw the franchise on his bony shoulders on numerous occasions. When it comes to the shooting guard position, Iverson ranks near the top. Of course, the great Michael Jordan takes the No. 1 spot followed by the late Kobe Bryant at No. 2 and Dwyane Wade at No. 3, and per HoopsHype's ranking, Iverson comes in ranked No. 4 on the list: A cultural icon as well as one of the best lead guards of his era, Allen Iverson has to be one of the most ridiculously explosive athletes the sport has ever seen, especially out of a player generously listed at 6-feet tall. Iverson's crossover was devastating (just ask Jordan), and his bombastic style as a scorer made for thrilling viewing throughout his prime. Iverson was one of the most influential players ever, both on and off the court was one of the most exciting players to watch and in his prime. He could really score with the best of them in such an unorthodox package. Iverson is one of the best players to ever play this game. One can make an argument for other impactful players at the 2-guard position over him, but Iverson's stamp on the game of basketball cannot be denied as he influenced an entire generation of young players trying to get into the game.

30 Most Important Bears of 2025: Joe Thuney (No. 3)
The Chicago Bears are gearing up for an exciting 2025 NFL season, which features some new faces within the organization poised to get the franchise back to its winning ways. That starts with the hiring of Ben Johnson as head coach, as well as overhauling the interior offensive line, adding pieces on defense and a potenital impactful rookie draft class. Every day from now right up through training camp, we're counting down our 30 Most Important Bears for the 2025 season. We'll recap their 2024 season, look ahead to 2025 and tackle the biggest question facing them this year. Next up at No. 3 is left guard Joe Thuney, who will be a key role in shoring up Chicago's offensive line and protecting quarterback Caleb Williams. Background Position: Left guard Age: 32 Experience: 10th season 2025 cap hit: $8 million 2024 recap Thuney has established himself as one of the best guards in the NFL, and he showcased why last season with the Kansas City Chiefs. Last season, Thuney started all 17 games for the Chiefs. While he played primarily at left guard, he kicked over to left tackle for three contests as Kansas City dealt with injuries along the offensive line. Thuney once again served as key protection for quarterback Patrick Mahomes as the Chiefs once again made a Super Bowl appearance. Thuney was named to the Pro Bowl and earned a First-Team All-Pro nod for his 2024 outing. 2025 outlook The Bears focused on overhauling the offensive line this offseason, including the additions of guard Jonah Jackson (via trade) and center Drew Dalman (in free agency). But their biggest addition was Thuney, who was acquired in exchange for a 2026 fourth-round pick. Shortly after, Chicago signed him to a two-year, $35 million deal to keep him through 2027. Thuney has the potential to have the biggest impact given his resume and proven production. He's coming off an All-Pro season where he even kicked out to left tackle, but he thrived at left guard protecting Patrick Mahomes. Now, Thuney brings that experience, production and leadership to a revamped Chicago offensive line that will be crucial to quarterback Caleb Williams' success. And if rookie Ozzy Trapilo wins the starting left tackle job, Thuney will be even more crucial for Trapilo as he acclimates to the pro game. The Bears will only go as far as Williams takes them. And Williams will only go as far as his offensive line allows. Thuney will play an integral role in the offensive line's success. Big question: Can Thuney continue to be a top NFL guard in Chicago? The Bears invested a lot in Thuney -- a fourth round pick in 2026 and $33.5 million guaranteed -- so they're banking on him to serve an integral role along the offensive line. Thuney is a two-time First-Team All-Pro, three-time Pro Bowler and four-time Super Bowl winner and one of the best guards in the entire NFL. Thuney's an elite pass blocker and has been the best pass-blocking guard, per Pro Football Focus, since 2021 with a 90.2 grade. But the question remains whether Thuney will continue that level of play outside of a winning organization like Kansas City. Chicago overhauled the entire interior offensive line, and Thuney will serve as an anchor in the trenches when it comes to protecting quarterback Caleb Williams. 30 Most Important Bears of 2025

Terry Bradshaw, Aaron Rodgers Do Not Agree Politically
Terry Bradshaw, Aaron Rodgers Do Not Agree Politically originally appeared on The Spun. Terry Bradshaw and Aaron Rodgers have some drama brewing heading into the 2025 season. Bradshaw, a four-time Super Bowl champion, made it clear that he wasn't a big fan of Rodgers, who signed with his Pittsburgh Steelers. Bradshaw said earlier this year that he wished Rodgers would just stay in California and "chew" on some bark. "That's a joke. That to me is just a joke," Bradshaw said of Pittsburgh's interest in Rodgers on 103.7 The Buzz back in May. "What are you gonna do? Bring him in for one year, are you kidding me? "That guy needs to stay in California. Go somewhere and chew on bark and whisper to the gods out there." Rodgers, meanwhile, responded to Bradshaw at training camp over the weekend. His response was pretty classy. "I've known Terry for a long time, being a part of FOX," Rodgers said, speaking to NFL Network's Kyle Brandt. "Terry's a legend. He's an absolute legend. He won four Super Bowls. He's had a legendary career in the media. "But Terry, like a lot of people, doesn't know me. So he's got an idea of what he thinks about me based on what I've done, the documentary, what I've said, darkness retreat, whatever the hell you want to talk about." While Rodgers and Bradshaw might have a lot in common on the football field, they've said pretty different things politically over the years. Bradshaw announced that he left the Republican Party, choosing to be an independent. He criticized President Trump, too. 'I've been a Republican, but now I'm a registered independent. I don't want to alienate anyone, and the minute you say, 'I'm a Democrat' or 'I'm Republican,' you're kicking off the other side. I want the best person [in the White House], and I'll pick the one who's most like the way I feel,' he announced. Bradshaw took issue with how President Trump criticized NFL players for kneeling for the anthem. "This is America. If our country stands for anything, folks, it's freedom. People died for that freedom. I'm not sure if our President understands those rights—that every American has the right to speak out and to protest. Believe me, these athletes do love this great country of ours," Bradshaw stated. He added: "Personally, I think our President should concentrate on North Korea and healthcare rather than ripping into athletes and the NFL." Rodgers, meanwhile, has shown his support for President Trump over the years, even posting a photo of himself shaking hands with POTUS on social media. He said it was "priceless." Rodgers has said that he would like to get to know Bradshaw, so hopefully that'll happen before the 2025 NFL season. But the duo might have some disagreements in the world of politics. Terry Bradshaw, Aaron Rodgers Do Not Agree Politically first appeared on The Spun on Jul 27, 2025 This story was originally reported by The Spun on Jul 27, 2025, where it first appeared.
