The NFL announced Monday, Nov. 9, 2026, that the Week 11 matchup between the Philadelphia Eagles and the Pittsburgh Steelers at Lincoln Financial Field will kick off at 1 p.m. on CBS and SportsRadio 94WIP. The Eagles will host their intrastate rivals coming out of the bye week. The announcement comes as part of the NFL’s schedule adjustments for Week 11 and sets the game for Philadelphia’s home stadium.

The Steelers enter the game 6-2 and will come out of their Week 9 bye before traveling to Cincinnati to face the Bengals on Sunday Night Football in a battle that will determine first place in the AFC North. These teams last met Dec. 15, 2024, when the Eagles won 27-13 and set a franchise record with their 10th straight victory. The Eagles have won the last 11 matchups of the intrastate rivalry played in Philadelphia dating back to 1966.

In Pittsburgh’s most recent game, the Steelers dominated the Cleveland Browns 27-6, avenging a three-point loss to their division rivals in Week 4. Running back Jaylen Warren rushed for 143 yards and a touchdown on 17 carries in that victory. With 998 scrimmage yards so far in 2026, Warren has the most by a Steelers player through eight games since James Conner had 1,085 in 2018. Pittsburgh scored three rushing touchdowns against the Browns after producing one rushing score through the first seven games of the season.

Quarterback Aaron Rodgers has won four straight games for the first time since he left the Green Bay Packers in an April 2023 trade to the New York Jets. He has completed 60.8 percent of his pass attempts for 1,871 yards with 13 touchdowns and six interceptions this season, and he has been sacked 23 times. The Eagles recorded six sacks in their last outing against the New York Giants, setting up a matchup between Pittsburgh’s pass protection and Philadelphia’s pass rush. Defensively, the Steelers rank fourth in the NFL in points allowed at 18.0 per game, with outside linebackers T.J. Watt (7.5 sacks, 23 quarterback pressures) and Alex Highsmith (3.5 sacks, 30 pressures) leading the rush.

As a team, Pittsburgh is tied for third in the NFL with 26 quarterback sacks and ranks third against the run, allowing 83.9 rushing yards per game. The NFL said the Week 11 game will air nationally on CBS and locally on SportsRadio 94WIP. The league announced the 1 p.m. kickoff on Nov. 9, 2026, and that time applies to the contest at Lincoln Financial Field.

NFL Sports Blog Take

The 1 p.m. kickoff places the Week 11 meeting in a prominent national window and emphasizes strong early execution. Pittsburgh’s top defensive rankings — including a high sack total and stingy run defense — present a clear challenge for Philadelphia. The Eagles’ six-sack performance against the Giants highlights their pass-rush capability and could be a decisive factor in Philadelphia. Home-field history favors the Eagles in Philadelphia, but the game should hinge on which team controls the line of scrimmage.
