New Orleans Saints - NFL Betting Analysis
New Orleans will look to add on another win, as they picked up a non-conference victory over the Cleveland Browns (17-10). With the win, New Orleans was able to cover the spread, as they were 3.5-point underdogs. With an over-under betting line of 32, the two teams fell below that figure as they combined for 27. Despite being the 3.5-point underdogs heading into the game, the Saints held a 7-point lead heading into the 4th quarter. Through 15 games, the Saints have an ATS record of 6-9. So far, they have an over-under record of 6-9. This week's betting total of 44.0 is right in line with their previous games.
As the Saints prepare to take on Philadelphia, they are ranked 23rd in points per game at 20.2. This week, the team is matched up against the league's 10th-ranked defense. Even though the Saints head into this week's game ranked 15th in pass yards per game, we expect them to put together a strong performance in the passing game. For the season, New Orleans is averaging 114.0 yards per game. They will be looking for a strong rushing performance against a Eagles defense ranked 18th in rush yards allowed.
Philadelphia Eagles - NFL Betting Analysis
Heading into week 17, the Philadelphia Eagles are looking to bounce back from a divisional loss to the Cowboys by a score of 40-34. Not only did Philadelphia lose the game, they also failed to cover the spread. Going into the game, the team was 4.0 point underdogs. The teams combined for a total of 74 points, which surpassed the over-under betting line of 48. Philadelphia and Philadelphia went into the 4th quarter, all tied at 27-27 before the Eagles outscored the Eagles by 6 in the final frame. Through 15 games, the Eagles have an ATS record of 8-7. So far, they have an over-under record of 10-5. This week's betting total of 44.0 is right in line with their previous games.
As the Eagles prepare to take on New Orleans, they have played well on offense, ranking 1st in points per game at 29.7. Look for the team to put together another strong offensive performance, as they are facing a Saints defense that is ranked 14th in points per game. This season, Philadelphia has been one of the better passing teams in the league, averaging 243.5 yards per game through the air. Although the Saints' defense has been able to limit opposing teams in the passing game, Philadelphia should still be able to continue to generate big plays through the pass. On the ground, the Eagles should also be in line for a good performance, as they are one of the better rushing team's in the league and are facing a defense that has its problem stopping the run.
