Philadelphia Eagles 9-7 @ New Orleans Saints 13-3
Date 1/13/19 Time 3:40 PM CT Channel Fox Stadium Mercedes-Benz Superdome New Orleans, LA
These two teams faced off two months ago in New Orleans and the Eagles got demolished 48-7 this time should go better I would assume. Philly turned their season around after another injury to Carson Wentz and having Nick Foles play big winning the last 3 games against the Rams, the Texans, and the Redskins. Last week the Eagles defense delivers holding the Bears offense to 15 points allowing Nick Foles and the struggling Eagles offense to pull off a game winning drive to upset the Chicago Bears. The keys to the game for the Eagles are pressure Brees and play mistake free football. The Cowboys provided a blueprint when they beat New Orleans in week 13 and the Eagles have the pass rushers to pull off a similar type of defensive game plan. Force Brees into a turnover and have Nick Foles pull some more magic out of his hat. For the Saints they just have to do what they do normally, a healthy balance of Alvin Kamara and Michael Thomas and have the defense bend but not break, hold Philly to field goals and just let Drew Brees do his thing. I have the Saints winning this one it’s just hard to walk into that dome with that crowd and win the clock strikes midnight on the magic Foles run.
Eagles- 24 Saints- 32
