NFL playbooks are complicated. Deciding where to watch and wager on the Philadelphia Eagles and the rest of the NFL action shouldn’t be.
If you are 21+ and physically located in Pennsylvania you can place a bet on any of the 13 legal regulated sports betting apps. That gives you a lot of options for where you should watch the Eagles so we slimmed down the playbook to some of our choices for the best places.
Why your house is the best nest to watch the Eagles
Sportsbooks in Pennsylvania are filled with promos for the 2021 NFL season. New user offers are especially attractive. And you don’t have to leave your couch to register. You can sign-up, deposit and wager right from the comfort of home (and your WiFi connection).
Order your favorite takeout. Get the best seat in the house. No lines for the bathroom. Choose the guest list. There’s a reason it’s called home field advantage.
Watching the Philadelphia Eagles at BetRivers Sportsbook
Rivers Casino Philadelphia is planning an exciting game day atmosphere for college and pro football game days. Betting kiosks are available 24/7, teller windows are open at certain times, and you can wager on the BetRivers app anywhere.
The BetRivers Sportsbook at Rivers Philadelphia Casino will offer food and drink specials, prizes, contests and more, including a chance to win a signed Eagles jersey every Sunday.
Here’s the highlight reel for fans watching games at BetRivers Sportsbook. (Masks are required for all guests and employees, per guidelines from the City of Philadelphia).
Birds Nest Party Pit
Every Sunday throughout the NFL season, the Birds Nest Party Pit will have swag, prizes, drink specials and more. In the gaming pit next to the BetRivers Sportsbook, guests can play blackjack, roulette and craps and still have a great view of the sportsbook’s 56.5-foot by 10.5-foot LED central monitor, as well as the eight additional 80-inch flat-screen, high-definition monitors.
Also, in the Birds Nest, Rivers Casino will feature the “Birds Score, You Score!” promotion. Guests who are playing a table game with a Rush Rewards card will receive a food voucher for Jack’s Bar + Grill every time the Eagles score.
Live broadcasts
The Tyrone Johnson Show will take over the BetRivers broadcast booth every Saturday during the football season. Also, “Inside the Birds” takes the booth for a two hour live broadcast before every Eagles game. Podcast hosts Geoff Mosher and Adam Caplan will be joined by former Eagles players Jason Avant and Quinten Mikell along with other former Eagles alumni throughout the season. Viewing parties for select games will also be available during the season.
