The Philadelphia Eagles have a chance to head to the Super Bowl this postseason if they can beat the Washington Commanders in the NFC Championship this weekend.
As both teams split the regular-season series, this game could be good.
However, longtime host Chris Russo will not be rooting for the Eagles.
“I can’t root for the Eagles…The fan base drives me crazy. They can be nasty,” Russo said Wednesday on “The Howard Stern Show.”

If you are an opposing player, you might hear things from the Philly crowd that you might not hear in any other stadium.
The Commanders are going to have to put their blinders on and stay laser-focused if they want to go into Lincoln Financial Field and come out with a win.
Both teams are under pressure, considering the season is on the line, but the Philadelphia Eagles could feel most of the pressure.
They are the home team.
They are the 14-win team, filled with plenty of talent on both sides of the ball, and ready to win right now.
But apparently, so are the Commanders, and they aren’t looking to wait around for next season to be the year they contend for a championship.
They are coming for the Eagles and will have plenty of house money.
