In an upcoming Week 3 matchup, the Philadelphia Eagles are gearing up to take on the New Orleans Saints, but the odds may not be in their favor. With a track record of 0-2 in predicting the Eagles' games this season, there is some skepticism around the team's potential success in this game. The Eagles are facing a tough situation, coming off a short week without A.J. Brown and going up against a formidable Saints team that has dominated opponents by a margin of 62 points this season.

While the Saints may be due for a regression after their strong start, the Eagles' defense has been struggling to stop the run and rush the passer, creating significant challenges for the team. The Saints' offensive line showcased its strength in the previous game against the Dallas Cowboys, raising concerns about the Eagles' ability to contain them. Star player Alvin Kamara is expected to pose a significant threat to the Eagles' defense, potentially tipping the scales in favor of the Saints.

Despite the odds stacked against them, there are some potential scenarios where the Eagles could come out on top. Quarterback Jalen Hurts has had success against Dennis Allen's defenses in the past, with a 2-0 record. The absence of Taysom Hill for the Saints could limit their offensive creativity, providing an opportunity for the Eagles to capitalize. Additionally, the unpredictable nature of the NFL leaves room for unexpected outcomes, where the Saints might underestimate the Eagles, leading to a possible upset.
