How to get Pittsburgh Steelers at Philadelphia Eagles tickets for Week 15
Two of the National Football League’s best teams this season are located on opposite ends of Pennsylvania.
In two weeks, they will meet at the Linc in Philly with playoff position and seeding on the line. The Week 15 game on Dec. 15 will start at 4:25 p.m. ET and will air on Fox and will be available to live stream on fubo TV (FREE trial), among others.
Pittsburgh is 8-3 and owns a half-game lead over Baltimore in the AFC North heading into this weekend’s game. It’s a game back of Buffalo for best record and top seed in the conference.
The Steelers had won five straight games before a disappointing setback on a snowy field in Cleveland on Nov. 21. They have managed to win with a top-10 defense, allowing only 20 TDs to date, fourth-best in the league.
Philly has won seven straight since getting crushed by Tampa Bay on Sept. 29. At 9-2, the Eagles have a comfortable lead over the Washington Commanders in the NFC East and are a game behind Detroit for best record and top seed in the conference.
Philly ranks No. 1 in the NHL in defense, allowing an average of 274.6 yards and 21 TDs. They rank third in offense, averaging 389.1 yards.
The Eagles and Steelers have one of the oldest rivalries in the NFL, dating back to 1933. The teams played each other twice a year during the first three decades of the rivalry but since 1970 have met only 12 times.

About 5 pounds of bees removed from Acrisure Stadium scaffolding ahead of Morgan Wallen concerts
Acrisure Stadium is buzzing with excitement ahead of the back-to-back Morgan Wallen concerts. Except it’s not the fans generating all the excitement — it’s about 5 pounds of honeybees.
The Fine Family Apiary in Monongahela said it was contacted on Wednesday about a swarm of bees clustered on the stage scaffolding. The apiary put the swarm in a “nuc box” and took them home before moving the bees into full-size equipment.
Owner Al Fine estimates the swarm weighed about 4 to 5 pounds and consisted of 12,000 to 15,000 bees. All said, it took less than two hours to get the job done.
Why do bees swarm?
Swarming is how honeybees propagate, Fine explained. According to Penn State Extension, during swarming, the queen and about half the workers leave their home to establish a new nest. The bees will form a temporary cluster, hanging out while scouts search the surrounding area for a more permanent home in hollow spaces like tree cavities or, occasionally, the walls of a home.
Swarms can stick around for several hours or days until they’re ready to move, Penn State Extension says. Meanwhile, the colony left behind is temporarily without a leader until a new queen is established.
With the swarm at Acrisure Stadium removed, Morgan Wallen’s show is ready to go on. The country music megastar will bring his I’m The Problem Tour to Pittsburgh on June 5 and June 6, along with multiple acts like Brooks & Dunn and Ella Langley.
