The Broncos' O-line is a mess due to injury and this Eagles' front four should take advantage. All of Philly's wins have come on the road. And despite their 3-6 record, the Eagles have outgained their opponents per play. Look for Denver to fall to 4-11-1 ATS in its last 16 games as a home favorite.
The Broncos looked great while handing Dallas its first ATS loss, but they have too many injuries to keep that momentum going. They'll also be facing a team whose poor record is mostly the product of a rough schedule ... of the Eagles' six losses, four came against teams currently in first place, and the other two played in Super Bowl LIV. Denver will be without two and possibly three starting O-linemen, which is a lot to overcome. Grab the points.
The Broncos go for the sweep of the NFC East Sunday against the Eagles, one week after wrecking the Cowboys in Dallas. The Broncos played at a high level last week, but they will likely regress this week to a decent team with a homefield. edge. It will be enough to win and cover against the chaotic Eagles.
The Eagles hit the road to face the Broncos, and while they only have three wins on the year, all three have come away from Philadelphia. The Broncos' surprising pasting of the Cowboys last week pushed the line toward Denver initially, but injury reports since have favored the Eagles. Not only will the Broncos not be getting back left tackle Garett Bolles for this game, but two other O-lineman are sidelined and one more is among the 10 questionable Broncos. The Eagles should be able to win in the trenches on both sides of the ball, and even though they lost last week, the offense has found a winning formula with more of a commitment to the run. Eagles win this one outright.
One of the strange side effects of the Eagles being without Miles Sanders is they've become a much more effective offense in the red zone without him. I don't know if it's that defenses don't respect Miles Sanders ability to run between the tackles or what, but it's opened things up a bit, which has helped Philly's overall performance improve. I'm going to rely on that continuing against a Denver team being overvalued following a surprising upset of the Cowboys.
I was leaning Under regardless because of not trusting either QB, Jalen Hurts (although he can run) or Teddy Bridgewater, that much. Broncos games this season average just 37.8 points, lowest in the NFL. My one concern was maybe Denver could score a bit on Philly's defense, but I no longer think that as the Broncos are expected to be without three starting offensive linemen. That may take me off Denver on the spread, though.
