NFL Preseason is heating up, and action this week starts on Thursday night when the New England Patriots meet the Philadelphia Eagles. It will be their 25th meeting at this stage of the campaign, and this has already become a tradition.
Before Betting on Eagles vs. Patriots NFL Preseason Week 2
On the other side, the Eagles beat the Ravens, 16-13, in an interesting matchup that saw them picking the victory as time went by with Jake Elliott’s 49-yard field goal. This was maybe the best game of the entire round, where Eagles’ reserves and guys who are aiming to earn a spot on the roster went toe-to-toe with their counterparts from Baltimore.
Kenny Pickett had one TD and 89 passing yards, and the sole scoring pass was toward Lew Nichols. Philadelphia’s rushing managed to generate 146 yards, and that’s something pretty impressive, even though it is a preseason game.
Pats have a new head coach and a new QB, and that’s all you need to know about them ahead of this season. Well, not all, but it surely reveals many things. We believe that Jacoby Brissett will remain a starter for a few opening games, and if New England begins to lose, rookie, Drake Maye should step in.
The Patriots’ defense looked good against the Carolina Panthers, allowing only 3 points, but the team from Charlotte is not a proper measure for making any decision. The two first-round WR rookies, Polk and Baker, had 25 yards combined with four receptions, and we expect them to be much better.
Eagles vs. Patriots Head to Head
The two played last season in Foxborough, where Philly won 25-20. Preior to that, we’ve seen them meet in 2019 when Pats triumphed 17-10 and in the Super Bowl LII when Eagles won 41-33.
Eagles vs. Patriots NFL Preseason Week 2 Offshore Betting Odds
| Team | Moneyline | Total |
|---|---|---|
| Eagles | +120 | 35.5 |
| Patriots | -110 | 35.5 |
The Eagles are very physical, and we don’t know whether the Pats can withstand that pressure. Surely, the hosts were very good against the Panthers, but as stated, Carolina is weak. We will be risky and go with the guests winning this battle.
