AMEDEUS' NFL PIGSKIN POUNDER!
(NFL) Eagles (PHI) vs. Ravens (BAL),
Point Spread: -2.50 | -118.00 Ravens (BAL) (Home)
Result: Loss
The Eagles are coming into this game with a 9-2 record this season and they have been playing very well in their recent games. They have won their last 7 straight games and they have been dominant in these with 2 of their last 3 as well as 4 of their last 6 wins all coming by 10+ points. They have played great in these games, but they have also been playing against a lot of teams under .500 as 6 of their 7 wins in that span have come against teams with losing records, beating the Giants, the Bengals, the Jaguars, the Cowboys, the Browns, and the Rams. Their only win in that span against a team with a winning record was their win against the Commanders, and that was a game they struggled in a lot in the 1st half. They are going up against a Ravens team that is 8-4 this season and they have been playing very well in their recent games. They have won 3 of their last 4 games and they have one of the better offenses in the league right now, scoring 30+ points in 3 of their last 4 as well as 7 of their last 9 games. Their defense has not been great this season, but they have actually tightened up over the last month, keeping opponents under 20 points in 2 of their last 4 games. The Ravens have one of the better run games in the league this season and they are going to be able to run the ball on this Eagles defense. The Eagles have been struggling to stop the run in their last 2 games as they allowed both the Rams and the Commanders to have early success against them. They were able to make the proper adjustments and go on to win the games, but the Ravens are not the kind of team that will let an opponent back in the game after early dominance. The Ravens will be able to establish the run at home and Lamar Jackson is playing like the best quarterback in the NFL right now. The Eagles have been great on defense recently, but they have not played an offense like the Ravens while the Ravens have had a pretty brutal schedule week after week and have still come out at 8-4. The Ravens will cover the spread in this game.
