Broncos vs Eagles Prediction

The current betting odds have the Eagles listed as a 4.5 point favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The Eagles have looked great in their games this season with their 4-0 record overall which has them right at the top of the NFC East with one of the only undefeated records left in the NFL. They are off a 31-25 win over the Buccaneers in their last one and they are starting to gain some momentum with the way they have won their last 2 games. The offense hasn't looked great this season, but they have been getting better in their last 2 games and they are a really tough team to stop with all of that talent once they get going. Meanwhile, the Broncos haven't looked great in their games this season with their 2-2 record overall. This isn't the start to the season they were expecting as they have dropped some closer games to good opponents. They are off a 28-3 win over the Bengals in their last one, but that wasn't a solid win with the state that the Bengals are in right now. The Broncos have struggled against the 2 good teams they have faced this season and this is going to be their toughest test against the defending Super Bowl champions. This is not an easy situation for them either, going on the road against the defending champions on a short week after playing a game on Monday Night Football. The Eagles are going to continue to roll in this one and stay undefeated. The best way to place a bet here is on the Eagles to cover the spread in this game. 

Broncos Eagles Prediction:  Our NFL Pick for Sunday, October 5, 2025 (1:00 pm ET start time) is Eagles 31 Broncos 24.

Notable Quotes


“It’s an o-zone situation, that last touchdown, Bo kind of bailed me out. We were in 01 personnel, so the play has to go to the end zone. We don’t really want the play clock to be running so it’s out of bounds or the end zone. It was a great call by him and a great throw and catch by Sutton. You start those drives thinking field goal, be smart, we start the second half with the ball. And then you midstream adjust, and quickly we were across midfield, and now your mindset adjusts. Certainly a big play at the end of the half, a huge play.” - Sean Payton after his team’s win against the Bengals in their last game. 


“It’s a great team win. Another gritty win. We know this has been a challenging environment. I’m proud of the way we competed. A lot we can improve on but it’s always good to get a win out there and they don’t come easy.” - Jalen Hurts after their win against the Bucs in their last game.
