Taking:
Philadelphia Eagles +7.
TB's weakness is their secondary. It's horrible.
The Eagles are willing to throw on darn near every down.
Philly won't be able to run on TB because the Bucs have one of the best run stopping defenses in the history of the NFL.
There's a problem though! If they pressure Hurts he'll take off. A QB escaping the pocket is much different than a running back coming out of the backfield. The angle is different and the speed variant of Hurts vs. much slower pursuing lineman/LB creates a huge advantage for Philly.
Tom Brady will get his, but the short week and having to play on the road will make this game more competitive than most think.
I think Philly has a great shot of winning this game straight up.
Good luck!
