Eagles vs Patriots Picks - Preseason Week 2
Philadelphia covered as 1.5-point favorites last week with a 16-13 victory over the Baltimore Ravens, while New England also covered as 6.5-point favorites versus the Carolina Panthers.
The Eagles put up 259 yards of total offense, with 24 first downs and ate up over 37 minutes of possession against the Ravens. Kenny Pickett started the game and looked good with 89 yards and a score.
Meanwhile, Joe Milton III was the star of the show for the Patriots. He took over for Bailey Zappe and Drake Maye and promptly threw a touchdown pass. With their sudden depth under center, I actually lean towards the Patriots heading into this game, but teams' have yet to release whether or not their starters will be playing on Thursday night.
With that in mind I'm sticking with the UNDER 35.5 points here. Five of the last seven Patriots preseason games have gone UNDER the total, with the Eagles also going UNDER in two of their last four.
