Andy Reid and his Philadelphia Eagles have been terrible at home this season; winning just one out of five games. The lone home win for Philadelphia came on October 30^th over the Dallas Cowboys. Despite being road underdogs last week, the Eagles were able to beat the Giants to stay alive in the divisional race. The Eagles running game has been one of the best in the league, led by LeSean McCoy. The former Pittsburgh Panthers star has rushed for 10 touchdowns on 1,019 rushing yards. Philadelphia’s top receivers Jeremy Maclin and DeSean Jackson are a bit banged up. Maclin is doubtful, after missing last week, and Jackson is questionable. The two have a combined six receiving touchdowns.

Tom Brady and his high flying offense will stroll into Philadelphia as the second best passing team in the league. The Patriots are throwing for 315 yards per game, led by Tom Brady. Brady has thrown 10 touchdown passes to the tight end Rob Gronkowski, with Wes Welker adding six. The Patriots defense has improved, but still ranks near the bottom of the league totals. New England is allowing 298.9 passing yards per game, and 105.3 rushing yards. The Patriots have a weak ending to their 2011 schedule, as they do not play another game with a team currently over .500.

Our Patriots vs. Eagles Pick and Predictions

Well, this certainly is a game that the Eagles need to win. If they lose this game, they are all but dead in the divisional race. They will be three games back with just five games to go. The Eagles are without their starting quarterback, which is something the Patriots took advantage of last week in the win over Kansas City. New England’s offense should be able to carve up the Eagles defense. We do not think the -3.5 point lead favorite New England is enough. We are going to bet the New England Patriots -3.5 over the Philadelphia Eagles in the big game on Sunday.
