The Philadelphia Eagles are rolling and welcome the Jacksonville Jaguars the city of brotherly love.
The Eagles are playing its best football of the season out of the bye week with three straight wins to reach 5-2. Jalen Hurts has five rushing touchdowns in the last two games and the team has scored 65 total points. Regarding turnovers, Hurts hasn’t thrown a pick in four-straight, so the Eagles are flying high entering this meeting.
The Jaguars are 2-6 on the season and playing its first true road game since Sept. 29. Jacksonville is 0-3 on the road this year with losses at Miami (20-17), Buffalo (47-10), and Houston (24-20). Since the last road game, Jacksonville has played at home twice and in London twice, going 2-2 in that span alternating wins and losses.

Game odds for Egles vs. Jaguars
The latest odds as of Friday courtesy of DraftKings:
Moneyline: Eagles (-325), Jaguars (+260)
Spread: Philadelphia -7.5 (-110)
Total: 45.5
The look-ahead line in the preseason was Philly -3.5, so it’s clear both teams are valued much differently now. Since Monday’s line of -7, there has been a slight shift to the Eagles at-7.5, which is expected to protect the sportsbooks and push the pressure on bettors to take a good number on Jacksonville at +7.5 or a bad number on Philly at -7.5.

NBC Sports Bet Best Bet
Vaughn Dalzell (@VmoneySports) likes the Philadelphia Eagles to score its first points of the season in the first quarter:
“The Philadelphia Eagles are the only team that hasn’t scored a single point in the first quarter this season, but that’s all about to change on Sunday.
Phiadelphia is healthy and rolling. The Eagles have scored 65 points in the past two games with 24 of that coming in the second quarter. Points are coming earlier and earlier each week and Jacksonville isn’t exactly the defense to stop many times on the opening or second drive.
In true road games (non-London games), Jacksonville allowed 13 (Buffalo), 7 (Houston), and 0 (Miami) in the first quarter. This will be the first road game on another team’s field since September 29th.
I like the Eagles to go Over the 6.5 Team Total in the first quarter and cover the first quarter spread of -2.5.”
