This is a 10* TOP TOTAL on the OVER Eagles/Patriots.

Betting the preseason is about betting "situations," as it's now less predictable than it's ever been with just three games, instead of four.

Either way, I think this is a "great" situation here on Thursday night to play the total, and after each side comes into Week 2 off a low-scoring victory, I'm anticipating a much more wide-open offensive affair here in Week 2.

Philly hung on for the 16-13 outright win in Baltimore, while the Pats pulled away for the 17-3 win at home over Carolina.

The Eagles' backups looked decent last week, with Kenny Pickett throwing for 89 yards and a TD.

Bailey Zappe threw for 108 yards for the Pats, while Joe Milton III was 4 of 6 along with a TD.

These teams have lots to work on in the pre-season, but I say the stage is set for some offensive fireworks, so the play is the OVER.

Good luck, NP
