The Philadelphia Eagles face off with the New Orleans Saints Sunday in week 14 NFL action at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia.

Alvin Kamara and Emmanuel Sanders have combined for 1,111 receiving yards and seven touchdowns while Tre’Quan Smith has 30 receptions.

Defensively, New Orleans is allowing 20.1 points and 288.8 yards per game. Demario Davis leads the New Orleans Saints with 85 tackles, Trey Hendrickson has 10.5 sacks and Marcus Williams has three interceptions.
The Philadelphia Eagles need a win here to snap a four-game losing streak. The Philadelphia Eagles have split their last four home games. Carson Wentz is completing 57.4 percent of his passes for 2,620 yards, 16 touchdowns and 15 interceptions. Wentz has two touchdown passes in six of his last eight games.

Defensively, Philadelphia is allowing 25.6 points and 347.1 yards per game. Alex Singleton leads the Philadelphia Eagles with 77 tackles, Brandon Graham has seven sacks and Jalen Mills has one interception.
The Saints are 37-15 ATS in their last 52 road games, 7-2 ATS in their last 9 games as a road favorite and 5-0 ATS in their last 5 games overall. The Eagles are 3-7 ATS vs. a team with a winning record, 5-2 ATS in their last 7 games as a home underdog and 4-9 ATS in their last 13 games overall. The under is 5-0 in Saints last 5 games overall. The under is 6-0 in Eagles last 6 games overall. The under is 4-1 in the last 5 meetings.
The New Orleans Saints are piling up the wins and covers at an impressive rate, and they’ve won the three games Hill has started at quarterback by an average of 16 points. The Philadelphia Eagles have scored no more than 17 points in each of their last four games and the quarterback situation is a complete mess. The Saints aren’t a team you should be looking to step in front of right now, and the Eagles are a tough sell regardless of who they play. This game could get ugly for the home team.
I have no choice but to lay the touchdown with the Saints.
