This was supposed to be a huge game. Everyone else pretty much did their part. The Falcons lost, as did the Panthers. Combine it with the Seahawks loss tonight and the three teams ahead of the Detroit Lions in the wild card race will all have lost in Week 13.

But the Detroit Lions didn’t take care of business. They didn’t even come close. So tonight’s Sunday night matchup between the Philadelpha Eagles and Seattle Seahawks has certainly lost most, if not all, of its allure.

Still, if you’re a fan of football and can put your Lions fandom aside, this promises to be a pretty interesting matchup. The Eagles are looking to maintain their one-game lead over the Minnesota Vikings atop the NFC. The Seahawks are looking to take advantage of losses by the Panthers, Falcons and Lions.

While the Eagles have looked as close to unbeatable as anyone, strange things tend to happen at CenturyLink Field, and I would never count out the Seahawks in December.

So sit back and enjoy the game as we try to forget what happened a few hours ago.

Here’s how to watch:

Date/Time: December 3, 2017 — 8:30 p.m. ET
Location: CenturyLink Field — Seattle, WA
TV: NBC
Online Streaming: NBCSports.com | FuboTV
Odds: Eagles by 3.5
