The defending NFC Champion Philadelphia Eagles (0-0) head to M&T Bank Stadium to take on the Baltimore Ravens (0-0) Saturday at 7 p.m. ET (NFL Network). Below, we analyze FanDuel Sportsbook’s lines around the Eagles vs. Ravens odds, and make our expert NFL picks and predictions.
In the 1st preseason game for both teams, do not expect many fireworks. If recent seasons count for anything, most of the starters for Philadelphia and Baltimore will be on the bench far before the 1st-quarter horn sounds.
Eagles QB Jalen Hurts will only see 1 series and the same will be done with Baltimore QB Lamar Jackson. The biggest story of this game will be if the Ravens can win their 24th consecutive preseason game—an NFL record.

Eagles at Ravens picks and predictions
Prediction
Ravens 20, Eagles 16
Moneyline
With the RAVENS (-225) owning an NFL-record streak of 23 straight preseason wins, expect John Harbaugh to win yet another one here.
The Eagles are looking to defend their NFC title and will use this as just another practice. The Eagles are the better team, but Baltimore will be the ones looking to win here. So, if you must wager, parlay it with another game and take the ML.
Against the spread
PASS.
Baltimore should win, but 5 points is too much to wager on.
Even if the Eagles do not come out to play, they do not want to be embarrassed. The margin of victory in this game could be anywhere from a FG to a TD, so do not risk trying to figure that out.

Over/Under
LEAN OVER 35.5 (-110)
According to The Action Network, 68% of preseason games with a total of less than 37 have hit the Over since 2000.
With so many 2nd-string players involved, the offenses should be better than the defenses. This means a few extra points could be scored in this showdown. Do not make it a large play, but any play here should only be on the OVER 35.5 (-110).
