2024 Philadelphia Eagles Season

After playing in the Super Bowl February of 2023, the Eagles got off to a great start in 2024, and things looked great for Kelly and Green.

But, a late season struggle hit the Eagles hard and they fizzled out.

But, a season removed from the Super Bowl, many still project this Eagles team to be really good. They have plenty of talent across the board.

The Philadelphia Eagles, led by their signal caller Jalen Hurts have a win total of 10.5 for the 2024 NFL season.

Hurts still has much of the same cast of characters back from a season ago, but one big addition is SaQuon Barkley at running back.

The Eagles are familiar with the former Penn State star following his years with the New York Giants.

Philadelphia comes into the 2024 season with a win total set at 10.5.

Let’s take a look at the Philadelphia Eagles Win/Loss season odds for 2024:

 

Road Trip to Start 2024

The first game of the season for the Philadelphia Eagles is in Brazil.

The first Friday Night Game of the week on Peacock will be against the Green Bay Packers.

These are two good teams out of the NFC, and with no real home field advantage this is going to be an interesting one.

The Eagles are small favorites, and we like them to start the season with a victory.


 

NFC South Stretch

Weeks 2, 3 and 4 are all against teams from the NFC South.

All three games are winnable games, and games the Eagles will be favorites in. Week 2 is the Atlanta Falcons.

This will be Kirk Cousins for Atlanta. The Falcons will be improved, but the Eagles have the edge in the battle of the birds. Week 3 is the first true road game.

The Eagles are on the road at the New Orleans Saints. Many project struggles for the Saints in 2024.

We like an Eagles win here as well. Finally, Week 4 will finish the month of September at Tampa.

Who knows who wins the NFC South, but if it is Tampa Bay, they still are not as good as the Eagles.

Philadelphia goes through a clean sweep and starts the season at 4-0.


 

October Games

After the Week 5 bye to start October, the Philadelphia Eagles are home for a Sunday afternoon game against the Cleveland Browns.

This is another chance for the Eagles to be favorites in the game.

The Browns were talented a season ago, but many across the league are looking at some regression for Cleveland this season. Week 7 is on the road against the New York Giants.

Barkley will get his first of two revenge game opportunities in Philadelphia. Both these games are winnable games, and put the Eagles at 6-0. The final game of October is our first projected loss for the Philadelphia Eagles.

They are on the road at the Cincinnati Bengals.

The Bengals are going to have a chip on their shoulder during the 2024 season, and this is a slip up for the Eagles. Head into November at 6-1!


 

Prime Time to Start November

The first game of November for the Eagles is at home on Sunday Night Football against Trevor Lawrence and the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Lawrence got a huge extension, and now the Jaguars want to see what they can get out of him.

Week 10 is on the road at the Dallas Cowboys.

We are projecting the Eagles and Cowboys split, so give this one to Dallas. That puts the Eagles at 7-2. 

After the Cowboys game, it is a short turn around, because Week 11 is on Thursday Night Football against the Washington Commanders.

While a short week, and quick turn around, this team can handle it.

We like the Eagles at home. The final game of November is at the Los Angeles Rams.

While the Eagles should win this one, going to Los Angeles can be a challenge.

We will hold judgment here.

As the Eagles head into the final full month of the season, we have them at 8-3, with a shot at 9-2.


 

December Comes in Hot

The month of December comes in hot for the Eagles schedule.

They will be underdogs on the road at the Baltimore Ravens.

This is a potential Super Bowl preview, as the Ravens were the best team in the AFC during the regular season a season ago.

Week 14 is at home against Carolina; a game the Eagles should not have any worries about. This puts them at 9-4 or 10-3.

The final four games start at home against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Being at home in this state rivalry game is a big deal; we will take the Eagles. Pittsburgh Steelers is in Washington.

The Commanders are going to be a bottom team in 2024, Philadelphia wins this one as well. That has them over the 10.5, with 11 wins in 15 games.

The final two games are at home against the Cowboys and the New York Giants.

We said split against the Cowboys, so this version is the win, and the Giants in Week 18 could certainly surprise the Eagles, but we like a focused Philadelphia team at home.

In the end, we are looking at 13 wins for the Eagles with a relatively soft schedule.


 

Final Thoughts on the Eagles

There you have it. That is what the Philadelphia Eagles 2024 Win/Loss season odds looks like.

When push comes to shove, we are going to take the OVER.

We have faith Nick Siriani and his staff will figure out what went wrong a season ago, and get those things fixed.

Health is a huge key, but with it, this team can be one of the best in the league.

We like the OVER 10.5 and a NFC East title. We hope you enjoy the off-season, have fun with training camp, and do well with your National Football League bets. Enjoy the games!

NFL 2022 Philadelphia Eagles Win/Loss Betting Prediction for the Upcoming Season
 

Previous Betting News

The Philadelphia Eagles are one of the favorites to win the NFC East, which explains why they offer a win loss total of 8 ½. Many NFL handicappers expect the Eagles to make the playoffs, like they did last season. Will Philadelphia take the next step in 2022? Or will the Eagles disappoint and fall below their win loss total? Check out NFL Win Loss Total Odds and a game total prediction for the Philadelphia Eagles.  

Eagles 2022 NFL Season Betting Prediction: Win/Loss Record

2022-23 NFL Regular Season

When: Sep. 8, 2022 – Jan. 8, 2023
Philadelphia Eagles Total Win / Loss Total Odds: 8 ½  

Why the Philadelphia Eagles will win more than 8 games

Philadelphia improved on both sides of the ball. On offense, the Eagles traded for one of the best wide receivers in the NFL when they acquired A.J. Brown from the Tennessee Titans. 

Brown is a game changing wide out. He’s almost impossible to cover one-on-one. A.J. joins a receiving corps that includes Devonta Smith, the 2020 Heisman Trophy winner, and underrated tight end Dallas Goedert.

On defense, Philadelphia signed strong safety Jaquiski Tartt. The former San Francisco 49ers is a great run stopping, blitzing safety, who also has terrific cover skills. The defense is deep and improved from game to game last season. So expect a big time improvement with Tartt on the field.  

Why the Philadelphia Eagles won’t win more than 8 games

Philly improved across the board except at the most important position, quarterback. Jalen Hurts is an okay quarterback, but he will have to step it up big time if Philadelphia hopes to win 9 games.

Hurts threw 16 touchdowns to 9 interceptions. He completed less than 62% of his passes. He rushed for 5.6 yards per carry, but he fumbled 4 times. 

If Hurts doesn’t improve, it won’t matter that A.J. Brown, Devonta Smith, and Dallas Goedert are on the field at the same time. It won’t matter how well Philly’s defense plays. 

Final Betting Analysis: Will the Philadelphia Eagles win at least 9 games?

Oddsmakers have a real bead on how many games Philadelphia will win. At first glance, 9 victories seems more than probable.

But a deep dive reveals that Philadelphia should have trouble reaching 8 wins. First, the schedule isn’t easy. Both Washington and the New York Giants are much better this season. 

For D.C., Carson Wentz is a huge upgrade. So the Commanders have a chance to leapfrog the Eagles. The Giants will have a much better defense and offense than than they did in 2021.

So we can’t say the Eagles sweep the Giants in 2022. Also, beating Dallas won’t be easy. 

Then there’s Philadelphia’s non-division schedule. Indianapolis, Tennessee, and Jacksonville won’t be for sure victories. Houston and Detroit should. 

New Orleans isn’t. Neither are the Vikings. Green Bay is likely a loss. At Arizona in Week 5 is a toss-up. 

If we assume the Eagles win their 3 home games versus division rivals Dallas, Washington, and the New York Giants, and we also assume Philadelphia beats the Lions and the Texans, we’re up to 5 wins.

Let’s throw in Jacksonville, bringing us to 6 wins. We can assume the Eagles will beat Minnesota in week 2 or Pittsburgh in week 8, which are both home games.

Now we’ve got 7 wins. Where will the eighth win come from? At Arizona, at Chicago, at home versus New Orleans or at home versus Tennessee are the likeliest wins. But it’s hard to see Philadelphia winning 3-of-4 or even 2-of-4. 

So at the end of our analysis, the Eagles win 8 games. Going under makes sense.

Philadelphia Eagles 2019 NFL Season Win/Loss Total Odds & Betting Prediction
 

Previous Betting News

One year after winning Super Bowl 52, the Philadelphia Eagles had a solid season in 2018 by going 9-7 to reach the playoffs where they beat the upstart Chicago Bears before falling to New Orleans in the divisional round. Now, as they get set for the upcoming 2019 season, the Birds are hoping to soar again, but this season will be unlike their past two campaigns now that Super Bowl-winning backup Nick Foles has taken over as the starter in Jacksonville, leaving talented, but oft-injured franchise signal-caller Carson Wentz as the unquestioned starter in Philly.

Will Wentz stay healthy while helping the Birds get back to being a legitimate Super Bowl threat or will Philly fail to live up to their Super Bowl aspirations in 2019?

If you’re an NFL betting aficionado that wants to know just how many games the Eagles are going to win so you could potentially cash in on the value-packed NFL Win Total Odds, then consider your ticket punched!

Thanks to the expert NFL predictions that you’re about to get on each and every game on Philadelphia’s upcoming 2019 docket, you’re going to have a great idea of just how many games the Eagles will win this coming season.

The Eagles finished the 2018 campaign ranked a modest 18th in scoring (22.9 ppg) while finishing an encouraging 12th in points allowed (21.8 ppg). The bad news is that the Birds also ranked a dismal 28th in rushing and 30th against the pass.

To address their offseason needs, Philadelphia drafted Washington State tackle Andre Dillard with the 22n overall pick before adding Penn State wide receiver Miles Sanders and Stanford wide receiver J.J. Arcega-Whiteside, both in the second round. The Eagles also added former Jaguars defensive tackle Malik Jackson, former Tampa Bay defensive end Vinny Curry and former Steelers linebacker L.J. Fort, among others, in free agency.

Philadelphia Eagles 2019 NFL Season Win/Loss Total Odds & Betting Prediction

Week 1 vs Washington

The Birds swept the Skins a year ago and I like them to take care of business at home in their regular season opener. Win. 1-0.

Week 2 at Atlanta

The Falcons get some payback for the pair of crushing losses they suffered the last two times they’ve faced Philly. Loss. 1-1.

Week 3 vs Detroit

The Lions are inferior on both sides of the ball. Win. 2-1.

Week 4 at Green Bay

The Eagles have the big edge on defense and that’s why they’ll get the huge road win here over Aaron Rodgers and company. Win. 3-1.

Week 5 vs NY Jets

I like Sam Darnold a lot, but the Jets definitely aren’t in the same class of legitimate Super Bowl contenders as Philadelphia. Win. 4-1.

Week 6 at Minnesota

After losing to the Eagles 23-21 in Philly in Week 5 a year ago, the Vikings extract some revenge in another nail-biter. Loss. 4-2.

Week 7 at Dallas

The Eagles lose their third straight against the ‘Boys after getting swept by Dallas a year ago. Loss. 4-3.

Week 8 at Buffalo

LeSean McCoy will be happy to see many of his former teammates, but the rest of the Buffalo Bills won’t be happy to see Philly come into town for this Week 8 affair. Win. 5-3.

Week 9 vs Chicago

The Eagles narrowly got past the Bears 16-15 in their NFC wild card matchup a year ago, but I’m thinking Chicago gets some payback in this Week 9 meeting despite being on the road. Loss. 5-4.

Week 10 BYE

Week 11 vs New England

The Birds will be going all-out to get the win in what looks like a statement-making kind of affair to me. After beating the Pats in Super Bowl 52, I say the Birds repeat the feat. Win. 6-4.

Week 12 vs Seattle

Carson Wentz is very good, but Russell Wilson is great. Despite being at home in Week 12, Philly falls to Seattle in an absolute thriller. Loss. 6-5.

Week 13 at Miami

If the Eagles don’t have this game well in hand by the time halftime rolls around, I’ll be completely and utterly shocked. Win. 7-5.

Week 14 vs NY Giants

The Birds win their third straight against the lesser G-Men after getting the sweep last season. Win. 8-5.

Week 15 at Washington

There will be no sweep when the Birds visit the nation’s capitol to take on a Skins team that was semi-respectable in winning seven games a year ago. Loss. 8-6.

Week 16 vs Dallas

The Eagles get some big-time payback to beat the Cowboys in Week 16 and give their playoff hopes a big boost! Win. 9-6.

Week 17 at NY Giants

I really want to pick Saquon Barkley and the Giants to get the big win here, but Philly is going to be desperate to reach the postseason and that’s why the Birds will get the W. Win. 10-6.

I’ve got the Eagles winning 10 games to top their 2019 O/U win total odds, but I believe they could win 11 games or more with nine victories being the minimum Philly will win in 2019. Lest anyone forget, Carson Wentz was playing at an MVP-caliber level two years ago before he suffered a torn ACL and I believe, two years later, he’ll get back to looking like that player in 2019.

 
Philadelphia Eagles 2018 NFL Win/Loss Odds Prediction
 

Previous Betting News

Make no mistake about it MyBookie football betting faithful. Even after winning the first Super Bowl in franchise history last season, the Philadelphia Eagles look like a team that is now built for long-term success. The Birds will enter the 2018 campaign looking for nothing less than a double-digit-winning season and a return to the Super Bowl.

Now, if you’re looking to cash in on Philadelphia’s 2018 win total odds and you’re in need of some expert betting assistance, you can consider your ticket punched! Thanks to my expert analysis and predictions on each and every game on the Eagles’  2018 schedule, you’re going to be able to maximize your chances of nailing your season-long futures odds wager on Philly’s 2018 win total odds.

Philadelphia Eagles 2018 NFL Win/Loss Odds Prediction

Philadelphia Eagles Regular Season Win Total Odds – 10

Week 1: Sept. 6 vs. Atlanta Falcons, 8:20 PM ET.

You had best believe the The Eagles are going to be emotionally fired up for their home opener and  rematch of their divisional round matchup against Atlanta and just like that playoff affair from a year ago, Philly gets the narrow win! 1-0.

Week 2: Sept. 16 at Tampa Bay Buccaneers, 1 PM ET

Jameis Winston will be out of the lineup for Tampa Bay as part of his league-imposed three-game suspension for violating the personal conduct policy, not that it would matter if he did start. Win. 2-0.

Week 3: Sept. 23 vs. Indianapolis Colts, 1 PM ET

Carson Wentz and the Eagles’ explosive offense are going to have their way against a Colts defense that has issues at all three levels. Win. 3-0.

Week 4: Sept. 30 at Tennessee Titans, 1 PM ET

The Titans will be at home, but Philly gets the win as Mike Vrabel gets out-coached by Doug Pederson. Win. 4-0.

Week 5: Oct. 7 vs. Minnesota Vikings, 4:25 PM ET

The Eagles overwhelmed Minnesota in their stunning NFC Championship game win a year ago, but they won’t repeat that kind of victory in this Week 5 matchup, even though I’ve still got the Birds getting the narrow win. 5-0.

Week 6: Oct. 11 at NY Giants, 8:20 PM ET

The Giants will definitely be a lot better than they were a year ago, but they certainly won’t be ready to keep up with a legitimate Super Bowl favorite. Win. 6-0.

Week 7: Oct. 21 vs. Carolina Panthers, 1 PM ET

The Eagles’ beat the Panthers 28-23 in Carolina in Week 6 last season and I’m expecting a virtually identical result in this Week 7 meeting of Super Bowl hopefuls. Win. 7-0.

Week 8: Oct. 28 at Jacksonville Jaguars, 9:30 a.m. ET

The Jaguars have won three straight at Wembley Stadium and I think they should be able to handle Philly in a street brawl in this one. Loss. 7-1.

Week 9: BYE

Week 10: Nov. 11 vs. Dallas Cowboys, 8:20 PM ET

The Eagles smacked the Cowboys senseless in their 37-9 Week 11 road win a year ago and I believe the Birds are the easy pick to win again, even if it isn’t as big of a rout. Win. 8-1.

Week 11: Nov. 18 at New Orleans Saints, 1 PM ET

The Eagles are going to be very, very good again in 2018, but they’ve got to lose a few close games. I’m going with drew Brees and company to get the home win in a shootout. Loss. 8-2.

Week 12: Nov. 25 vs. NY Giants, 1 p.m. ET

The Eagles will get the regular season sweep in this one, but Eli Manning, Saquon Barkley and an improved Giants offense will at least make it interesting. Win. 9-2.

Week 13: Dec. 3 vs. Washington Redskins, 8:15 p.m. ET

The Eagles are the better team in all three phases, plus Jay Gruden doesn’t come close to being the kind of coach that Doug Pederson is. Win. 10-2.

Week 14: Dec. 9 at Dallas Cowboys, 4:25 PM ET

Ezekiel Elliott and Dak Prescott can play for my team any day. The Boys will make this Week 14 NFC East battle interesting because they’re at home, but the eagles will get the road ‘upset’ because of Dallas’ awful pass defense. Win. 11-2.

Week 15: Dec. 16 at Los Angeles Rams, 8:20 PM ET

I initially ad the Eagles winning a close road contest in this Week 14 matchup, but I’m going with L.A. to extract a small measure of revenge for their 43-35 home loss to Philly in Week 14 a year ago. Loss. 11-3.

Week 16: Dec. 23 vs. Houston Texans, 1 PM ET

Philly wins this late season matchup because they’re playing at home and will want to get some momentum prior to the playoffs, although I’ll admit that this Week 15 matchup has the look and feel of one of those Game of the Year kind of matchups. Win. 12-3

Week 17: Dec. 30 at Washington Redskins, 1 p.m. ET

Washington will be desperate in this contest and Philly might not have anything left to play for with their postseason berth already secured. How about a narrow road loss for the Birds in this one? Loss. 12-4.

I’m a bit surprised that Philadelphia’s win total odds aren’t a game higher than the 10 it currently is, but I think that makes the defending Super Bowl champs a virtual lock to top their 10-win figure. Play the Over MyBookie football betting faithful and you’ll end up one happy camper by the time the regular season closes! Over 10 Wins.

 
2017 NFL Picks and Win/Loss Prediction For Philadelphia Eagles
 

Previous Betting News

The Philadelphia Eagles may not have reached the postseason in the first year of the Doug Pederson/Carson Wentz era, but the future looks bright in the City of Brotherly Love and for good reason.

You see, the Birds found their franchise quarterback in Wentz and wisely addressed some of the offseason needs that should help them improve in 2017.

If you want to know just how the Birds are going to fare against their 2017 win total NFL odds, then you’re going to enjoy the expert analysis you’re about to get on each and every game on Philadelphia’s upcoming 2017 schedule.

2017 NFL Picks and Win/Loss Prediction For Philadelphia Eagles

Philadelphia Eagles 2017 Win Total Odds 8.0

Week 1

Eagles at Redskins (-3)
After getting swept by Washington a year ago, the Philadelphia Eagles will be going all out to extract some revenge in their regular season opener. Unfortunately, they won’t get it as the Skins hold down the fort in this Week 1 NFC East showdown.

Week 2

Eagles at Chiefs (-4)
The Eagles will fall to 0-2 as Kansas City’s Andy Reid schools his former assistant Doug Pederson and the Chiefs defense makes like miserable for Carson Wentz.

Week 3

Giants at Eagles (-1)
The Birds and G-Men split their two regular season meetings a year ago with both teams winning at home. Expect more of the same from these longtime division rivals in 2017. Philly gets the home win.

Week 4

Eagles at Chargers (-1.5)
This looks like a matchup the Eagles can win, but I don;t believe they will as Philip Rivers out-guns Carson Wentz in a shootout.

Week 5

Cardinals at Eagles (-2)
Arizona running back David Johnson will be the best player on the field in this Week 5 NFC clash and Arizona will get the road win because of it.

Week 6

Eagles at Panthers (-4)
Carolina is looking to get back to being a legitimate Super Bowl contender and will hold it down at home against the Birds in a thriller.

Week 7

Redskins at Eagles (-2.5)
Simply put, Philly gets some revenge after dropping three straight against the Skins.

Week 8

49ers at Eagles (-7.5)
At this point, the Eagles will need an easy win. Thank goodness the lowly Niners are visiting.

Week 9

Broncos at Eagles (-1)
The Philadelphia Eagles may be playing at home in this Week 9 Inter-conference matchup, but they’ll lose a heartbreaker because of Denver’s elite defense.

Week 10

BYE

Week 11

Eagles at Cowboys (-7)
The Boys and Birds split their two regular season meetings in 2016 with both teams winning at home. Again, you should expect another split in 2017 between these hated rivals.

Week 12

Bears at Eagles (-6)
Carson Wentz may be young, but he’s going to show the Bears what a real franchise quarterback looks like after Chicago foolishly gave up an arm and a leg to take the inexperienced Mitchell Trubisky with the second overall pick in the draft.

Week 13

Eagles at Seahawks (-7)
The Eagles will show up and they’ll give a great effort, but I’m thinking Seattle runs the table at home in 2017.

Week 14

Eagles (-1.5) at Rams
If the Rams aren’t kicking themselves for passing up on Wentz to grab Jared Goff with the No. 1 overall pick in last year’s draft, they will be after this Week 14 affair.

Week 15

Eagles at Giants (-3.5)
New York wins at home to get the regular season split against Philly.

Week 16

Raiders (-1) at Eagles
The high-scoring Raiders don’t play much defense, but they usually don’t have to the way they can score the ball. Oakland wins a shootout in the City of Brotherly Love as Derek Carr out-duels Carson Wentz.

Week 17

Cowboys at Eagles
Last but not least, while I’m expecting Dallas to be desperate in this Week 17 regular season finale, I like Philadelphia to close out its 2017 campaign on a positive note by beating the hated Cowboys to potentially end their postseason hopes.

While I’ve got the Eagles winning six games here, I’ll admit that the more likely scenario is that the Birds win either seven or eight games. Still, because of their treacherous 2017 schedule, I don;t see Philadelphia reaching the 9-win mark to top their win total odds.

 
2016 Philadelphia Eagles Season Win Total Prediction
 

Previous Betting News

The Philadelphia Eagles were in the hunt for the NFC East title deep into last season before fading and then firing coach Chip Kelly. The new administration cleaned house for the most part. So what to expect from Philly this year? The Eagles are given a wins total of 7.5 in NFL betting.

Here’s a Look at the 2016 Philadelphia Eagles Season Win Total Prediction

Total Win/Loss Odds Overview

Heading into Week 16, the Eagles were alive in the playoff race. They just had to beat the Washington Redskins. They didn’t, and it really wasn’t even close. The final score was 38-24, but the Eagles were never in the game. Then Kelly was surprisingly canned. Kelly had been given personnel control entering last year. He went out and traded for QB Sam Bradford, he shipped RB LeSean McCoy out, and he brought in DeMarco Murray. But nothing seemed to work.

Last year’s 7-9 record was a surprising disappointment. This year’s would be reasonable with a new head coach, new offensive and defensive schemes and other significant changes. The new coach is former Chiefs offensive coordinator Doug Pederson. He had been Andy Reid’s offensive coordinator with Kansas City for the past three seasons. Before going to Kansas City, he was Reid’s quarterbacks coach in Philadelphia after starting as a quality control coach. Pederson has spent seven seasons as an NFL coach, and all have been under Reid.

Pederson’s limited track record as a coach is helped by a 12-year playing career. He spent time with the Eagles, Dolphins, Packers, and Browns. Pederson held a clipboard behind Brett Favre with the Packers from 1996-98, when Reid was also on the Packers’ staff. Pederson followed Reid to Philadelphia in 1999 and started nine games. He finished his career with 12 touchdowns and 19 interceptions. Pederson  becomes the seventh active coach who used to play in the NFL.

Why Betting On The Over?

After a disastrous return on Kelly’s one and only free-agent class, the Eagles managed to get out of his two biggest mistakes and pick up draft capital in the process. Philly shipped off Byron Maxwell to Miami and Murray to Tennessee, swapping draft picks as part of both deals.

The hiring of Jim Schwartz as defensive coordinator should be an upgrade on Bill Davis, even if Davis still had the Eagles at 17th in DVOA last season. The Eagles’ defense in 2015 was an enigma. After starting out strong, Philly’s defensive play disintegrated down the stretch and ended ranked 30th in total yards per game (401.6) and 28th in points per game allowed (26.9).

Schwartz helped the Bills post the second-best defensive DVOA (which adjusts performance for down, distance, and opponent) and a league-leading 54 sacks during his lone year as coordinator in Buffalo in 2014 before Rex Ryan replaced him with Dennis Thurman and the Bills fell to 24th in DVOA. Schwartz coaches the kind of aggressive, intimidating 4-3 scheme that Eagles fans prefer, and that gives him a chance to become a local folk hero. The Eagles played a hybrid style of defense under Kelly and Davis, but mostly operated out of a base 3-4 set. Schwartz is well known for his ability to manufacture pressure on opposing quarterbacks while only rushing the front four defenders, rarely, if ever, sending blitzers into the backfield. Schwartz spent 2015 as a consultant with the NFL’s officiating department.

Why Betting On The Under?

What is this team doing at quarterback? The Eagles gave away several draft picks to move up twice and select the North Dakota State star with the No. 2 overall spot. But they also gave Sam Bradford and Chase Daniel plenty of money — $34 million guaranteed — to be the top two guys on the depth chart. And the team plans in keeping Wentz inactive all season if possible so that’s no immediate help. Wentz is a player the Eagles view as the long term centerpiece of the franchise, but not in any way some kind of short term fix. In a best case scenario, the Eagles would love to be competitive in 2016 with Bradford having his best season as a starter (not a high bar). That will make it easier for GM Howie Roseman to flip Bradford for a decent draft pick during the 2017 offseason. Meanwhile, Daniel’s role feels like he is the long term backup, first for Bradford, and then for Wentz.

Bradford’s problems have been twofold in his career: durability and performance. The injury-prone quarterback has played 16 games only twice in his six-year career. If Bradford can’t perform at a high level, the clamoring for Wentz will begin pretty quickly. The Eagles’ running back situation heading into training camp this season is less than ideal. The top four running backs currently on the Eagles’; roster are Ryan Mathews, Darren Sproles, Wendell Smallwood, and Kenjon Barner. There’s no true featured back there. Mathews used to have the potential but he’s always hurt. Plus Mathews is not a great fit for Pederson’s offense. Pederson has said that he wants to be able to move his backs around to create mismatches for opposing defenses in the passing game.

My Betting Prediction

This is going to be a transition year for the Eagles to naming Wentz their starter either late in the year if they are losing or as soon as the season is over. Go under the total in NFL online betting.
