The Washington leaders visit the Philadelphia Eagles and have a spot in Super Bowl LIX up for grabs.

This showdown will begin at 3 PM ET on Sunday at Lincoln Financial Stadium in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

But Fox revealed huge plans before the match kicked off.

It includes a Fox NFL Sunday doubleheader beginning at 1 p.m. ET.

The popular pre-game show starring Michael Strahan and Terry Bradshaw will take viewers to the start of the game.

Fox also has another conference championship buildup on the agenda Sunday.

Championship Drive will begin at 12 noon ET and both matches will be previewed later that day.

Fox NFL Sunday typically airs at noon ET every Sunday during the regular season.

It was not broadcast live in its usual format during the playoffs, due to schedule adjustments.

The network showed Sunday's game at 4:30 PM ET on the wild card weekend between the Philadelphia Eagles and Green Bay Packers.

Terry Bradshaw takes aim at his Fox NFL Sunday co-star after a concerned Michael Strahan asked, “Do you need oxygen?”

In the divisional round, they had a prime-time showdown on Saturday between the Washington Commanders and Detroit Lions.

These two games were preceded by a 30-minute pregame show instead of the usual Fox NFL Sunday treatment.

Fox has a short post-game show also on the Sunday schedule.

The network will be handed over to CBS after the Eagles and Commanders clash.

CBS will show the AFC Championship game from Arrowhead Stadium at 6:30 p.m. ET.
