New England Patriots vs Philadelphia Eagles Predictions
The New England Patriots are a team with low football skills, so they work on their lineup in the preseason and try to increase their value by using starting-level players. The Philadelphia Eagles didn't face many stars in their preseason opener, but they are a championship favorite that knows most of their strengths, so that's likely to be the case in the next two games. The Patriots have also been preparing for this game for a week, but the Eagles played on Friday, making it their second consecutive away game.
I bet the Patriots will win at home.
