The Detroit Lions (0-7) host the Philadelphia Eagles (2-5) Sunday for their Week 8 showdown at Ford Field. Kickoff is scheduled for 1 p.m. ET. Below, we look at the Eagles vs. Lions odds and lines; check back for our NFL picks and predictions.
Philly took a 33-22 beating by the Las Vegas Raiders as a 1-point road underdog in Week 7. The game was more lopsided than the final score indicates as 15 of Philly’s 22 points were scored in the fourth quarter.
The Raiders had more time of possession (32:31-27:29), gained more first downs (23-22) and had substantially more yards per play (7.0-5.3) than the Eagles.
Detroit squandered a double-digit first-half lead in its 28-19 loss at the Los Angeles Rams Sunday, but the Lions did cover as massive 17-point road underdogs.
The Lions had the ball for 32:40 with slightly more yards per play than the Rams (6.2-6.1). However, Detroit gave up more than double the penalty yardage than Philly and was minus-two in turnover differential.
