Philadelphia Eagles are home team in Super Bowl 59

The Philadelphia Eagles will represent the NFC in Super Bowl 59 at the Superdome in New Orleans.

The way it works with home and away teams in Super Bowls is the AFC is the home team in even-numbered Super Bowls.

The odd-numbered games make the NFC team the home team.

That makes the Eagles the home team in Super Bowl 59.
