Pros
  • The Eagles are a 5.5-point favorite in this week's game, likely leading to a rushing game script.
  • THE BLITZ projects the Philadelphia Eagles as the 6th-most run-heavy offense on the slate this week with a 48.2% run rate, based on their underlying tendencies and matchup dynamics.
  • THE BLITZ projects this game to see the 4th-highest volume of plays run out of all the games this week at 131.9 plays, given the tendencies of each team and game dynamics.
  • Miles Sanders has run for quite a few more yards per game (78.0) this season than he did last season (57.0).
  • Opposing offenses have rushed for the 10th-most yards in football (134 per game) against the New Orleans Saints defense this year.
Cons
  • The Philadelphia Eagles will be forced to use backup quarterback Gardner Minshew in this game, which usually means fewer pass attempts and more rushing.
  • The New Orleans Saints defensive ends profile as the 4th-best group of DEs in the league this year when it comes to stopping the run.
  • The Philadelphia Eagles have faced a stacked the box on 18.9% of their plays since the start of last season, 7th-most in the NFL. Bringing an extra defender close to the line of scrimmage improves run-stopping at the cost of better passing efficiency.
  • The Philadelphia Eagles have used motion in their offense on 28.1% of their play-calls since the start of last season (4th-least in football), which usually makes an offense more predictable and less effective.
