The Philadelphia Eagles will have a shot at winning their second Super Bowl in franchise history following their 31-7 victory over the San Francisco 49ers in the NFC Championship game yesterday.
The appearance will be their fourth in franchise history, with the goal of winning their second.
The Raiders defeated them 27-10 in their first of four appearances in 1980. Their next appearance was in 2004 when they lost 24-21 to the New England Patriots under former head coach Andy Reid.

The last time they made it to the Super Bowl was in 2017, when they defeated the New England Patriots, 41-33, to earn their first title.
This will be the Eagles' second Super Bowl appearance in the last five years, and they could become one of the few teams in NFL history to accomplish that feat.
The Eagles finished the season as the No. 1 seed in the NFC, going 14-3, and will face the other No. 1 seed in the AFC, the Kansas City Chiefs, who also went 14-3.
Eagles' offseason moves made by Howie Roseman helped shape up the Super Bowl roster
General Manager Howie Roseman has become a vital part of the Eagles' success. He helped build the Super Bowl roster this off-season by making a few big moves.
He traded the team's first-round pick in 2022 to the Titans for star wide receiver AJ Brown. The Eagles also signed defensive lineman Hasson Reddick, who has helped the team lead the league in sacks. The team drafted two key Georgia defensive stars in Nakobe Dean and Jordan Davis that have helped boost their defense.
The team also decided to keep third-string running back Boston Scott, who has 1,574 scrimmage yards and 15 touchdowns in only 301 touches over the last three years.
Philly finished with a top-10 offense and defense this season with Jalen Hurts finishing as an MVP candidate.
When was the last time the Kansas City Chiefs made the Super Bowl?
The Philadelphia Eagles will face the Kansas City Chiefs in the Super Bowl. They played in the Super Bowl more recently than the Eagles have.
They faced the Buccaneers in Super Bowl LV, where they suffered a 31-9 blowout loss. The season before, they faced the San Francisco 49ers, and defeated them 31-20, earning their first Super Bowl victory in the Patrick Mahomes-Andy Reid era.
Like Philadelphia, the Chiefs have the opportunity to win their second Super Bowl within the last five seasons.
Philly is currently the two-point favorite as both teams are led by MVP-candidate quarterbacks.
The big game will be played on Sunday, February 12th, at 6:30 PM ET, and the winner will get the feeling of being a champion again for the second time in the last few years.
