Cleveland Browns vs Philadelphia Eagles Prediction
I’m staying with Philly. Probably not touching this one, though. The Eagles looked quite listless on both sides in their latest effort versus the Bucs. Philadelphia ended up with just 227 total yards (114 passing), 16 first downs, and a pair of lost fumbles. The defense gave up 445 yards (334 passing) and 29 first downs on the other side.
As for Cleveland, they posted just 212 total yards (108 passing), 13 first downs, and 1-of-13 on third-down tries in their latest loss to the Commanders. The Browns defense gave up 434 yards (215 rushing) and 20 first downs but did have a pair of takeaways. Neither team is trending in the right direction, but I like Philly to cover here thanks to the extra prep.
