Here we go again.
For the second year in a row, the Seahawks will head out on the road to open the playoffs against an NFC East opponent. Last year, it was a trip to Dallas — and the Seahawks’ earliest playoff exit in seven previous postseason appearances under Pete Carroll.
This week, the Seahawks are flying to Philadelphia for the second time in six weeks, with an opening-round playoff game against the Eagles. Kickoff is set for 1:40 p.m. Sunday at Lincoln Financial Field.
In eight road games, the Seahawks (11-5) won a franchise-record seven of them this season.
