Overview

Good luck guessing what this Philadelphia offense will look like. Following many weeks of being short of healthy bodies, the Eagles welcome many players back to the lineup, and it will be interesting to see how they get everyone involved. Jalen Reagor and Dallas Goedert returned last game, and both should be more involved in this game. Running back Miles Sanders is expected to make his return and receiver Alshon Jeffery will be making his season debut. Philadelphia is also expected to have their big right tackle Lane Johnson available.

Suddenly, Carson Wentz has some weapons. There no longer is the excuse of being shorthanded, so we will see how this offense looks with legitimate receiving weapons. Defensively, Philadelphia has been solid, allowing just 5.0 yards per play, which is tied for the fourth-best in the league. They have had extra time to prepare for a Giants offense that averages just 4.9 yards per play, which is tied for the third-worst in the NFL.

As bad as the Giants offense has been, their defense has been better than many would expect. They allow 5.6 yards per play, which is about average. The Giants also allow just 3.7 yards per carry, which is tied for the fourth-best in the league. But while the Giants’ front seven is quietly solid, they still can struggle against the pass. They have allowed the fourth-worst completion percentage, at 69.54%. The Giants pass defense vs. Carson Wentz will likely determine the outcome of this game.

Trends

  • Philadelphia is 3-6 against the spread (ATS) in its last nine games.
  • Philadelphia is 8-0 straight up in its last eight games against the Giants.
  • The Giants are 5-1 ATS in its last six games.

3rd Quarter Spread: Eagles -0.5 (+110)

With all of the players returning to the Eagles offense, there’s a chance that they start the game a bit slow, but they should be clicking out of half time. On the other side, the Giants are the second-worst third quarter scoring team in the league, averaging just 2.4 third quarter points per game.

Bottom Line

There’s a lot of trends to go against the Eagles here. Since 2016, which is when Doug Pederson took over as head coach:

  • The Eagles are 6-9 ATS as an away favorite.
  • The Eagles are 12-15 ATS in divisional games.
  • The Eagles are 2-3 ATS after a bye.
  • The total has hit the over in 55.6% of divisional games for the Eagles.
  • The total has hit the over in 66.7% of Eagles games as an away favorite.

I don’t like the line being at 3.5. The Eagles will ensure they have a competitive game no matter the opponent. I expect them to win straight up, but it easily could be a field goal for the win, allowing the Giants to cover at home.

Pick: Giants +3.5, Over 44.5
