After a weekend for the Eagles on their way out west that was worse than the weather in the Philly area, the Eagles face a must-win in Seattle against the 6-7 Seahawks, who are desperately clinging to hope for a wild card spot. A lot of uncertainty to this game, but let’s see if we can make sense of this.

Point spread/ML: Eagles -3.5/-200 Seahawks +3.5/+165
Total Points: 45.5 points
Analysis: The Eagles have looked as bad as any team in the NFL over the past two games in losses to the 49ers and Cowboys, so a bounce back should be in order. But Jalen Hurts is now questionable due to an illness that caused the team to put Hurts on a separate charter to Seattle. Seattle QB Geno Smith is also questionable (groin) for the game. If Smith can’t go, Drew Lock will get the start.
Picks: OVER 45.5 points
Philadelphia Eagles
Passing Props
NOTE: PointsBet has not released any passing props due to the uncertain status of both starting QBs.
Rushing Props (O/U)
- D’Andre Swift – 60.5 yards
- Kenneth Walker – 50.5 yards
- Zach Charbonnet – 35.5 yards
Analysis: Seattle’s run defense ranks 23rd in the NFL, and they’ve allowed 159.3 yds/game over their last three, so look for the Eagles to get Swift going early and often, especially if they get a lead. Charbonnet has been solid over the past month, and actually received more carries (9 to 8) than Walker last week vs SF.
Picks: Walker UNDER 50.5; Swift OVER 60.5
Receiving Props (O/U)
- A.J. Brown – 85.5 yards; 6+ receptions (-180)
- DK Metcalf – 60.5 yards
- DeVonta Smith – 55.5 yards; 5+ receptions (-105)
- Tyler Lockett – 50.5 yards
- Jaxon Smith-Njigba – 40.5 yards
- Dallas Goedert – 40.5 yards; 4+ receptions (-165)
- Noah Fant – 20.5 yards
- D’Andre Swift – 15.5 yards
- Kenny Gainwell – 10.5 yards
Analysis: This will be difficult to predict with how un in the air the QBs are, but I’m going on the hunch that Hurts will play tonight. This game will feature two of the worst pass defenses in the NFL, so look for a lot of yards through the air.
Picks: Lockett OVER 50.5 yards; Metcalf OVER 60.5 yards; Smith-Njigba OVER 40.5 yards; Brown OVER 85.5 yards; Goedert OVER 40.5 yards; Smith OVER 55.5 yards
Anytime touchdowns
- Jalen Hurts -125
- A.J. Brown +120
- Kenneth Walker +130
- DK Metcalf +155
- D’Andre Swift +160
- DeVonta Smith +190
- Zach Charbonnet +225
- Tyler Lockett +260
- Jaxon Smith-Njigba +290
- Dallas Goedert +300
Analysis: If Hurts plays, he’s a good bet to reach the end zone. As for other ATDs, I definitely would take a shot at some of the skill position guys with longer odds to cash in big.
Picks: Lockett, Smith, Smith-Njigba, Goedert
