Eagles vs. Lions: NFL Week 11 Odds, Prediction

The Eagles play a second straight primetime game as they welcome the Lions to Philadelphia. 

For Philadelphia, this game marks the second straight game against a perceived NFC contender. Packers vs Eagles is the final Week 10 matchup, with the Eagles priced as a one-point dog. 

Detroit enters SNF at 6-3 on the season. On Sunday, Dan Campbell’s unit captured a convincing win over the Commanders, scoring 30 points for the first time since Week 5.

Eagles vs. Lions Prediction

Thursday, November 13

Early reports have emerged on Detroit’s injury situation. For those considering a bet on the Lions, the news is dire. 

All the following players did not practice on Wednesday: Terrion Arnold, Aidan Hutchinson, Kerby Joseph, Sam LaPorta and Penei Sewell. 

A lot could change between now and Sunday. However, those are some very important players for Detroit.

Those injuries could help explain the line move. Philadelphia opened around -1.5 and rose to -2.5. It’s also worth noting Jalen Hurts is 18-0 at home against teams above .500. 

For me, I’m passing on the game entirely given the injury situation for Detroit. If anything, I’d evaluate the Eagles team total under if Hutchinson and Arnold play. 

Given the current information, though, I’m staying away from Sunday Night Football.

Monday, November 10

Based on Detroit’s strong running threat and the Eagles’ inability to stop the run, my Eagles vs. Lions prediction is the Detroit Lions Moneyline (+100). 

I want to wait until later in the week to make a final prediction for this game. Detroit is dealing with a number of offensive line injuries that could mitigate a key advantage. 

The Lions enter Sunday’s game ranked sixth in rush offense DVOA, per ftnfantasy.com. 

A clear trend emerges with the Lions this season: 6-0 rushing for over 100 yards, 0-3 rushing for under 100. 

The Eagles have struggled to stop the run this season. Excluding Week 10’s game against Green Bay, the Eagles rank 24th in rush defense DVOA. 

Some of that can be attributed to Jalen Carter’s absence for two games. But Philadelphia has also struggled to defend the run with Carter. 

Carter missed games in Week 1 and Week 6. Here are Philadelphia’s defensive rushing success rates in the remaining games:

• Week 2: 8th
• Week 3: 31st
• Week 4: 12th
• Week 5: 17th
• Week 7: 23rd
• Week 8: 11th

Week 3 is the chief concern. Philadelphia played the Rams, who rank third in rush offense DVOA (+6.9%). Detroit ranks sixth at +2%. 

If there’s a case for optimism, it’s that Philadelphia has not allowed a 100-yard rusher this season with Carter in the lineup. 

That said, I worry about Detroit’s slight rest advantage, along with the fact that Philadelphia has run very lucky this season. 

Philadelphia enters Week 10 sitting at 6-2. Their point differential renders Philadelphia a 4.6-win team. 

Based on those factors, it’s the Lions or pass for me on Sunday Night Football. That could change if key personnel are ruled out for Detroit.
