The Philadelphia Eagles have some of the best fans in the NFL, and they travel well, taking over stadiums all across the country.

With the NFL wanting to put star power on display at Azteca Stadium, there are several options for Roger Goodell to pair with Kyler Murray and the rising Cardinals.

With the NFL using travel and fatigue as a factor, they could choose to keep in the NFC West, choosing from among the Rams, Seahawks or 49ers as the opponent.
The appeal of an Eagles-Cardinals matchup would center around the two quarterbacks and the fans of the opposing team.
