Philadelphia Eagles - Minnesota Vikings: Form Analysis
The Eagles will need to improve their week two defensive performance after giving up 35 points and 386 yards to Jared Goff and the Lions. It won’t be easy for Philadelphia in this one however, despite playing their season opener at the Lincoln Financial Field here. The Eagles were only 3-5 at home last season en route to a 9-8 season and a playoff berth but come into this season with a legitimate shot at winning the NFC East. On the other side, the Vikings will also be expecting to fare better than their 8-9 finish from last season. Minnesota has a talented roster and if Cousins can continue to deliver consistent performances we could see them challenge the Packers for the NFL North crown.

Philadelphia Eagles & Minnesota Vikings Squad Analysis
Eagles dual-threat quarterback Jalen Hurts rushed for 90 yards on 17 carries in week one, with only eight running backs seeing more carries, let alone quarterbacks. The Vikings will have spent the entire week planning how to contain Hurts breaking free from the pocket as the mobile QB presents a matchup nightmare for any opponent. On the other side, we’ve touched on the key players for the Vikings in quarterback Kirk Cousins and wide receiver Justin Jefferson. The Eagles struggled to get to Goff in the week one win, creating the fourth-worst pressure rate as the former Rams QB was allowed all the time in the world ot pick them apart. They’ll have to do a better job of getting to Cousins, who has proved throughout the years that he excels more than most when given time in the pocket.
Philadelphia Eagles - Minnesota Vikings Key Points
- Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins has put up points against the Eagles throughout his career, passing for 2,756 yards, 21 touchdowns and six interceptions on his way to a 6-3 record.
- The Eagles defense was gashed for 181 total rushing yards in the week one win, the fifth highest total in the NFL.
- The Cousins to Jefferson connection was unstoppable against a Packers defense that many have as one of the best in the NFL. Jefferson caught nine balls for 184 yards and two touchdowns in the win.
- The Eagles 38 points scored was the second highest total of the week while their 35 points conceded was the third highest mark. Minnesota has the personnel to match this high-powered Philly offense.

Our Philadelphia Eagles vs Minnesota Vikings Prediction
We’re going to back over 50.5 total points as our bet for this one. This line has already seen a big jump after some strong early money came in on the opening total of 47.5, but we still believe there is some value to be had at the current line. Both teams have the pieces to turn this Monday Night contest into a shootout in spite of all of the other primetime games staying under the total so far. The Eagles have a legitimate double threat quarterback in Jalen Hurts while Vikings receiver Jsutin Jefferson is shattering all kinds of records and quickly becoming mentioned as one of the very best in his position despite his tender age of 23. Look for both offenses to thrive in this one in what should be an exciting encounter.
