NFL Week 9 Predictions: Best Picks Against the Spread

Philadelphia Eagles


Opponent: at New York Giants


Line: PHI (+3)


Both teams are 4-3, but they are a very different 4-3. The Eagles have a point-differential of plus-62 and have lost each of their three games by a touchdown or less, while the G-Men have a point-differential of negative-8 and have scraped by with wins of one, three, four and seven points. While the Eagles are just 1-3 away from home, they are the better overall team and they're getting points. I think they win this one, but at the very least, they have the defense--No. 1 in Football Outsiders' rankings--to keep this projected low-scoring contest (over/under 43) close. (Getty)
