Eagles season ticket holders are charged for playoff tickets only when it's known what game they'll play. Using this year as an example, I was charged the day after the Eagles clinched the first round bye for the Divisional round. After the Eagles beat the Giants, I was then charged for the Championship game.
Tickets for the remaining unsold seats went on sale 5 days prior to the game being played.

Sounds similar to what at least the Washington Capitals, and I suspect other NHL teams, do for the Stanley Cup Playoffs: Season-ticket holders are eligible for "Pay as We Play," where you get billed a day after each playoff round for the home games actually played during that round (thus, for example, if they’re the higher seed and they win the series four games to one, you get billed for three games). Anyone who doesn’t have a season ticket either pays in full in advance for the entire playoffs or pays for individual games when buying them. All this mattered a little more in the days of paper tickets when season-ticket holders received ticket books in advance of the playoffs. Now, with fully electronic ticketing, they can make just a particular round available in the online account manager. (They don’t do it game-by-game because people who already know they can’t make a particular game, say due to business travel or whatever, need time to be able to transfer to a friend, sell the ticket, or donate it.)
It makes sense to offer something like that for season-ticket holders because the customer has an incentive to make good on the payment lest he lose his season ticket and the team has an incentive to keep the customers happy because they spend a lot of money with the team. (By all accounts the Washington Commanders' current ownership does not understand this principle, given their various lawsuits against season-ticket holders who run into financial trouble, but it’s not like they have to deal with home playoff games anyway. A friend of ours and her husband were long-time season-ticket holders. He died in 2014 or 2015. The team refused to let her out of her season ticket and said either she paid in full for both seats or she’d face legal action.)

My prediction for this year's Super Bowl will a revenge of Super Bowl LIV -- Niners will avenge their last Super Bowl appearance and beat the Chiefs in Super Bowl LVII.

The Eagles beat the 49ers in a score of 31-7! I was expecting a close game between the two teams...

What other result could there have been when suddenly you have no QB?
