Writer’s Breakdown and Pick for the Eagles vs Saints Game

Pressure is on in Philadelphia

The Eagles have set high goals for the 2024 NFL season, though head coach Nick Sirianni is under pressure after the team’s late-game collapse on Monday night.

Philadelphia has been averaging 27.5 points per game so far.

The problem is, they are allowing more than 25 per game, which will need to improve.

Quarterback Jalen Hurts has thrown for three touchdowns but also has three interceptions.

His top receiver has been Devonta Smith, who stepped up in place of AJ Brown, who is sidelined for a few more games.

Smith has 14 receptions for 160 yards and a touchdown.

Smith was the lone receiving touchdown in the loss on Monday Night Football.

Running back Saquon Barkley has three touchdowns, two rushing and one receiving.

However, his key drop in the last game gave Atlanta the chance for a game-winning drive.

In the game though, he finished with 95 yards on the ground on 22 carries.

He also had four receptions for 21 yards.

The Eagles will play the Buccaneers in Tampa Bay next weekend.

Great Start for Saints

Derek Carr has been excellent for the Saints, completing 30 of 39 passes for 449 yards and five touchdowns, with one interception and two sacks.

His primary target, Rashid Shaheed, is averaging nearly 85 yards per game and has scored twice.

Shaheed had four receptions for 96 yards in the win over Dallas.

Alvin Kamara dominated in the last game against Dallas, scoring four touchdowns, bringing his total to five this season.

He has rushed for nearly 200 yards on 35 carries.

Jamaal Williams has added 19 carries and a touchdown for the Saints.

Chris Olave is another threat in the Saints offense, as he caught four passes for 81 yards in the win.

After this game, the Saints will face back-to-back road games, playing the Falcons next Sunday and the Chiefs in Week 5.

New Orleans Remains Unbeaten

The Saints are riding high after two strong wins.

While their 45.5 points per game may not be sustainable, they have been impressive.

The Eagles, still reeling from a tough loss and missing AJ Brown, may struggle to keep pace with the Saints’ potent offense.

We predict a 28-24 victory for New Orleans.

How to Bet on NFL Spreads? Let’s Find Out

Betting on NFL spreads means wagering on the point difference between two teams rather than just picking a winner.

For example, in the upcoming game between the New Orleans Saints and the Philadelphia Eagles, the Saints are favored by 2.5 points.

Here’s how it works:

Saints -2.5: The Saints must win by 3 points or more for your bet on them to win.
- If the final score is Saints 27, Eagles 24: You win your bet (Saints win by 3).
- If the final score is Saints 24, Eagles 23: You lose your bet (Saints win by only 1).
Eagles +2.5: If you bet on the Eagles, they can either win the game or lose by 2 points or fewer.
- If the final score is Saints 24, Eagles 22: You win your bet (Eagles lose by 2).
- If the final score is Saints 27, Eagles 24: You lose your bet (Eagles lose by 3).

Understanding how the spread works helps you make smarter betting decisions.

Eagles vs Saints NFL Week 11 Betting Odds & Prediction

Previous Betting News

Over the course of the 17-week regular season in the NFL, we tend to see a whole lot of twists, turns, and momentum shifts. Teams that looked dead at the start of the season suddenly find their feet and become a challenger, while preseason favorites wither and die before our very eyes. The New Orleans Saints came out and lost their opening game of the season to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, leading some to believe that last season may have been a flash in the pan. They have since proven that what they did last year was perhaps just a stepping stone towards greater things.

As for the defending Super Bowl Champions, their season has yet to really get going. Just when it looks as though they are about to turn a corner, they have themselves another setback. It’s more than fair to suggest that the Philadelphia Eagles need this one if they are to stay alive in the playoff picture, but it’s also fair to say that they are going to have a very tough time getting that win. The Saints are in as a 9-point home favorite, with the point total set at 55.

Eagles vs Saints NFL Week 11 Betting Odds & Prediction

When: Sunday, November 18 at 4:25 PM EST
Where: Mercedes-Benz Superdome, New Orleans
NFL Week 11 Betting Odds: New Orleans Saints -9 (Total 56)

Why bet on the Philadelphia Eagles?

The Eagles made a habit of winning big games last season, a habit that took them all the way to a championship. They have not been able to find a way to win those big games this year, with their loss to the Dallas Cowboys in Week 10 a perfect example of that. The NFC East is still very much up for grabs at this point, and a win in that game would have put the Eagles in prime position to run down the Redskins. Instead, they are now sitting a game below .500 and in very real danger of not getting to the postseason to defend their crown.

The Eagles have been a poor bet all around this season, managing to cover the spread just 3 times in their 9 games. They have only won 2 of their last 7 meetings with New Orleans, although they are 5-2 ATS in their last 7 visits to the Big Easy.

Why bet on the New Orleans Saints?

The Saints have put that opening week loss behind them rather quickly and are coming into this one on an 8-game winning streak. It doesn’t seem to matter what the bookies do to the Saints in terms of the spread, as they just go out and cover, which they have done in 7 straight games now.

While it has certainly been the Drew Brees show for New Orleans again this season, the veteran QB has not been asked to carry the entire load. The Saints are able to hit teams with a very nice mix of the run and pass, which has helped them rack up over 36 PPG this season. They are now on a run where they have won 11 of their last 12 games at home.

Expert Pick & Final Score Prediction for Eagles vs Saints

The Eagles look to me like a team that is done this season, while the Saints seem to be gearing up for a deep playoff run. I think that New Orleans win this one going away.

Score: Philadelphia Eagles 20 New Orleans Saints 33
