Betting on the Philadelphia Eagles (+2.5)
Regular Season Record: 3-6
The Eagles failed to build on their 44-6 road win over the Detroit Lions in Week 8, as they fell prey to the Los Angeles Chargers at home last Sunday to the tune of a 27-24 score. Philly still looked good in a loss against a quality team. The Eagles had lots of success on the ground, rushing for 176 yards and two touchdowns on 39 total carries, and that’s despite the team missing running back Miles Sanders. Jordan Howard, Jalen Hurts, Boston Scott, and Kenneth Gainwell are doing a fine collective job for the Eagles’ rushing attack that is averaging 136.6 rushing yards per game. Rookie wide receiver DeVonta Smith erupted for 116 receiving yards and a touchdown on five receptions. That performance could be the start of a dominant stretch for the former Alabama Crimson Tide star.
The over is 4-1 in the Eagles’ last five games after a loss.
Betting on the Denver Broncos (-2.5)
Regular Season Record: 5-4
The Broncos are gathering momentum, thanks to a schedule against NFC East teams. They are on a two-game roll, having beaten the Washington Football Team in Week 8 (17-10) then the Dallas Cowboys (30-16) on the road in Week 9. Teddy Bridgewater went 19/28 for 249 passing yards and a touchdown with zero interceptions, while also getting sacked four times for a loss of 32 yards against the Cowboys. Denver surely would want better pass protection this week. In any case, the rushing attack consisting mainly of the pair of Melvin Gordon and Javonte Williams will be ready to go against Philly’s run defense that is giving up 119.7 rushing yards per game — good for just 20th in the NFL. We are also seeing Denver’s defense hitting its stride again. Against Dallas, the Broncos forced two turnovers and held the Cowboys to only 5/13 on third downs.
The Broncos are 4-1 against the spread in their last five games after a win.
Writer’s Prediction
The Eagles win, 23-20.
