Why the Eagles can cover

The Eagles started the 2024 season with a big win, totaling 410 yards on offense at 5.5 yards per play in their Week 1 win over the Green Bay Packers. Philadelphia has plenty of weapons on offense and found balance in last week’s win, totaling 266 passing yards and 144 rushing yards.

Last week, quarterback Jalen Hurts completed 20 of 34 passes for 278 passing yards with two passing touchdowns and two interceptions. But the biggest weapon was running back Saquon Barkley, who brings explosiveness and dual-threat ability to the offense. He contributed 109 rushing yards, 23 receiving yards and three total touchdowns in the win over the Packers. See who to bet on at SportsLine.

Why the Falcons can cover

Atlanta also has a variety of playmakers. Running back Bijan Robinson is an athletic and instinctive ball carrier. He has a good feel for the open gap and has steady hands as a pass catcher. In the season opener against the Steelers, Robinson had 68 rushing yards and added five receptions for 43 yards.

Receiver Drake London can win at all three levels of the field and gives this offense a solid red zone threat. In two NFL seasons, the 23-year-old has recorded 143 receptions (230 targets) for 1,786 receiving yards and six touchdowns. See who to bet on at SportsLine.
