Bills vs Eagles Betting Picks and Analysis for Week 12

Bills vs Eagles Betting Picks and Analysis for Week 12

Written by on November 24, 2023

The Buffalo Bills bounced back from their 5-5 start by walloping the New York Jets last Sunday. Ball security, which had been a major problem, improved, and the defense was able to stop giving up big plays. It helped that the Jets’ quarterback options only included Zach Wilson and Tim Boyle, of course. Looking ahead to the off-season, the Bills might want to consider adding a tailback as James Cook could use some help in shouldering the load of carries. Latavius Murray is currently the backup, and Leonard Fournette is on the practice squad, but some are suggesting a trade for Leonard Fournette. One name that has been bounced around is New Orleans tailback Alvin Kamara, who is not quite as dominant as he was during his All-Pro campaigns, but he has run the ball for 388 yards and caught 50 passes, scoring three touchdowns. This week, the Bills face a tough test in Philadelphia, and they can’t afford to lose many more games if they even want to make the postseason, let alone challenge Miami in the AFC East. Check out our NFL betting thoughts on this inter-conference showdown between Bills vs Eagles.

Why should you bet on the Buffalo Bills?

Josh Allen put up one of his elite lines last week against the Jets, going 20 of 32 for 275 yards and three touchdowns and an interception, posting a 108.2 quarterback rating. Khalil Shakir caught three balls for an eye-popping 115 yards. James Cook carried the ball 17 times for 73 yards. The Bills’ offense continues to put up points, averaging 26.7 points per game. They rank 11th in rushing offense, but the real problem continues to be turnovers (12 interceptions and seven fumbles), which continue to counteract the successes the team has on offense.

The Bills are near the middle of the NFL in pass defense, permitting 204.2 yards per game (14th overall), and they are tenth in total defense (314.6 yards per game). Their scoring defense ranks fourth (17.3 points permitted per game), but again, they have made hay against the lower-tier teams, giving up too many crucial points in the games against other contenders. If you like the Bills here, you see them getting stops against the league’s best team.

Why should you put your money on the Philadelphia Eagles?

The Eagles found themselves down to the Kansas City Chiefs at halftime on Monday night, 17-7, and the Chiefs’ pass rush had sacked Jalen Hurts five times. Hurts still only threw for 150 yards, going 14 of 22 with an interception, but he made the key completions when he needed to. DeVonta Smith caught six balls for 99 yards, and D’Andre Swift had 12 carries for 76 yards, as a 17-7 deficit became a 21-17 Philadelphia victory. The Eagles have the ninth-ranked offense in yards gained (362.9 per game), and their scoring offense ranks fifth (27.3 points per game).

The Philadelphia defense is right in the middle of the league, ranked 16th with 21.2 points permitted per game. Their pass defense ranks 28th, as they allow 248.1 yards per game. Against Patrick Mahomes, possibly the NFL’s best quarterback, they amped up the pass rush and kept Mahomes from settling into the pocket and finding targets down the field, setting the stage for the comeback.

Bills vs Eagles Final Score and Prediction

Given the struggles that Buffalo has had sustaining drives against quality competition this season, I’m surprised that this line is this low. The Eagles have done a solid job of plucking away turnovers, with eight fumble recoveries and five interceptions so far this season, and I see Josh Allen putting several balls in harm’s way on Sunday. I predict a final score of Philadelphia 30, Buffalo 20.
