The last time the Eagles and the Patriots played each other, Philly upset New England, allowing the Eagles to obtain their first-ever league title, thanks to a Super Bowl LII, 41-33 victory.
This game took place back on February 4, 2018, and more than a year later, the Pats are ready to seek revenge.
Philly is 8-2 ATS in their last ten matches versus the Patriots, but New England is 8-1 this year, possesses a tremendous defensive lineup, and the retribution factor all contribute to putting the label of favorites on the Pats this time around.
New England Patriots Odds
The Patriots started the season like no other team, with an 8-0 record. But that sweet moment lasted until they faced Lamar Jackson and the Ravens, who handled New England their first defeat of the season.
This was the first time this year that the Pats’ defense allowed more than fourteen points. This was also the second straight match in which New England allowed more than 5 yards per rushing attempt.
The Pats are now facing an Eagles offensive lineup, which has considerably improved their rushing game in the past few weeks.
New England is 4-1 ATS the last five seasons in matches that follow a BYE, so expect Tom Brady and company to be ready to go.

Philadelphia Eagles Odds
The Eagles are also coming from their BYE, but they went to rest on a more positive note as they defeated the Bears 22-14 at Week 9.
This was the second victory in a row for Philly, and they are now tied for the first position at the NFC East.
Thanks to Miles Sanders and Jordan Howard, this team has established a consistently strong running attack. However, they still need to improve their aerial game if they want to have a chance at defeating Bill Belichick’s squad.

Losing to The Eagles Motived Tom Brady
Tom Brady still remembers his team’s Super Bowl loss to Philly as clear as the light of day. And this is undoubtedly an experience full of lessons the successful quarterback won’t easily forget.
“That’s a lot of mental scar tissue from that year — a tough game. In a lot of ways, we learned and came back stronger the next year. We won the Super Bowl in ’18. When you play in that game, and you play great teams, you’re not going to win them all.” Braid said.
Back then, the Pats faced quarterback Nick Foles, but Foles is part of the Jaguars roster now, so New England will get a chance to test its team versus Carson Wentz, who is more than ready for this match as he possesses a strong arm, has the athletics, and can perform extended plays trouble-free.
In other words, this can be the second real challenge of the season for the Pats after losing their first real test to Baltimore.
