— -- Say what you will about Philadelphia fans, but the Eagles had zero trouble selling out their playoff game against New Orleans, unlike the other three teams hosting games on wild-card weekend.

There was never a concern the game would be blacked out locally. The Eagles didn't need the NFL to extend the deadline so that they could have their corporate partners jump in and save the day at the last minute.

Nope. Eagles fans bought tickets. All of them. Quickly.

Green Bay, Cincinnati and Indianapolis sold all of their tickets, too. It just took awhile. And it took help.
