The Philadelphia Eagles are coming off a lackluster opening week victory. I will take a road win any way I can get it. I also expect that when you’re at home on a short week as the reigning NFC Champions you want to clean things up. What’s going to happen on Thursday Night Football?
I’ll tell you in advance! Go bold or go home! Here are some bets I have placed on the BetParx App. Bet responsibly, please! I’ll wager a fictional 50 cookies!
Jalen Hurts OVER 299.5 total yards passing and rushing (-114) / 5 cookies
I love this pick and would have no issue risking a little more than normal.
Jalen Hurts OVER 2.5 TD passes (+310) / 5 cookies
Go small, but give it a shot. It’s a tall order to expect 3 TD passes, but with Gainwell out of action, I’m counting on it to be an air attack.
OVER 49 points scored (-113) / 10 cookiesÂ
The largest cookie wager. I’m suspicious of how low this number is because I’m expecting a high-scoring game.
DeVonta Smith Anytime TD (+120) / 5 cookiesÂ
I’ve called for DeVonta Smith to be WR1 statistically this season. How about another TD to keep his 2023 scoring streak intact?
T.J. Hockenson Anytime TD (+160) / 5 cookiesÂ
The middle of the field was wide open all day on Sunday. The Eagles will pay so much attention to Justin Jefferson that I expect Hockenson to be utilized as a red zone weapon on the Eagles linebackers.
Quez Watkins OVER 29.5 yards receiving (+245) / 5 cookies
The third WR will get in on the action tonight. I’ll take a flier on Quez to get a few targets and to make them count.
Total Points by Eagles OVER 27.5 (-115) / 5 cookies
I’m expecting a game in the 30s for the Eagles offense, but I’ll just take the standard available points over bet.
Total Points by Vikings OVER 21.5 (-105) / 5 cookiesÂ
The Vikings will be able to generate more points than the Patriots did, especially with three defensive starters out of action.
Exact Winning Margin by Eagles: 7-12 points (+420) / 5 cookies
I always like to put my game prediction to the test, but just for a few cookies.
MY CALLÂ
The Eagles get to 2-0 on Thursday Night Football in a game that will generate as many questions as answers, but the offense will have a night!
