According to Philadelphia Mayor Cherelle L. Parker and Pennsylvania Senator John Fetterman (D), who placed a friendly wager on the outcome this week, the highly anticipated Eagles/Steelers game this weekend is more important than football.
When the Steelers win, I wager that @PhillyMayor will wear a Steelers hat all day and declare at City Hall: Sheetz > Wawa (obviously), Fitzman’s Friday X postsaid.

And the challenge was accepted by Mayor Parker.
On Saturday, she responded with her own X post, stating that former Penn State running back Saquon Barkley will contribute to the Eagles’ victory.
Senator Fetterman will wear an Eagles cap wherever he goes on Monday when the @Eagleswin tomorrow. Additionally, I’ll recommend that he say “Go Birds,” our quintessential Philadelphia greeting, to anyone in Washington. “The post stated.”

Fetterman said that he would utter a vile lie and declare that Wawa is superior to Sheetz in the U.S. Senate if the Eagles prevail.
On Thursday, November 21, 2024, in Cleveland, Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver George Pickens (14) strolls along the sidelines during an NFL football game versus the Cleveland Browns. Pickens is anticipated to miss the Steelers’ game against the Eagles in Week 15.AP
The absence of three Steelers players, including wide receiver George Pickens, from the Eagles game was recently confirmed. Wide receiver Britain Covey was downgraded to out due to a neck injury, thus the Eagles, who have a healthier roster, will be without him.
Since 1965, the Steelers have failed to win a game in Philadelphia.
The current leaders of their respective divisions, the Eagles (11-2) and the Steelers (10-3) will square off on Sunday at 4:25 p.m. at Philadelphia’s Lincoln Financial Field. See PennLive’s in-depth coverage of the Pittsburgh Steelers and Philadelphia Eagles for more information on both teams prior to Sunday’s game.
