Eagles vs Vikings prediction

Eagles vs Vikings Best bet: Eagles moneyline (-126)

The Philadelphia Eagles have been held to 17 points in back-to-back games, but their offense has too much talent to be held down for long. Don't forget that these are the reigning Super Bowl champs, and they went 4-0 to start the year with wins against quality teams like the Chiefs, Rams, and Bucs. 

The Minnesota Vikings are 3-2 but have faced a far easier schedule than the Eagles. Two of their three wins came against the Browns and Bengals, who look like Bottom-5 teams, and the other was a fourth-quarter comeback against an injury-riddled Bears squad.

With Jalen Hurts and Saquon Barkley, Philly should churn out yards on the ground against a Vikings defense that is 25th in the league in defensive rush EPA.

On the other side of the ball, I don't have faith in a Minnesota offense that ranks just 27th in EPA/play.

Carson Wentz is 32nd among 39 QBs in offensive grade per PFF, and he's getting clobbered behind a banged-up line. He'll have a tough time moving the ball against an Eagles defense that ranks sixth in the league in opponent pass efficiency (83.3).

Eagles vs Vikings same-game parlay

The Vikings are 23rd in the league in defensive rush DVOA and 24th in rushing yards allowed per game (132.2). That makes this a great spot for Barkley, who is off to a rough start this year, but ran for an NFL record 2,504 yards in 20 regular-season and playoff games last year.

Since I'm betting on the Vikes to have a tough time passing the ball, expect them to lean on RB Jordan Mason. Philly is far worse against the run than the pass, ranking 29th in defensive rush success rate and 27th in rushing yards allowed per game (134.3).
