NFL Week 3 Picks on the Philadelphia Eagles vs Jacksonville Jaguars Odds: The Philadelphia Eagles will end a pretty shaken week when they face the Jacksonville Jaguars this Sunday at 1 PM ET at EverBank Field. The Eagles vs. Jaguars NFL Point Spread have the Eagles -3 at BETUS.com
The coach Andy Reid named Kevin Kolb the starting QB for this game at the beginning of the week but then after watching the film he decided to go with Michael Vick, who gives the Eagles another dimension on offense. "Michael did an exceptional job and my job is to evaluate the players," Reid said. "It's my obligation to make the proper decision."
Vick is coming off a game where he threw for 284 yards and 2 touchdowns with no picks in the 35-32 victory over the Detroit Lions. There is no doubt in my mind that he is a better pocket player than he was in Atlanta but he also got his speed back and that´s what makes him dangerous to opposing defensives. The scrambling QB will be looking to DeSean Jackson downfield trying to catch the Jaguars defense off guard. Jackson recorded 135 yards and one touchdown against the Lions in Week 2.
Also the Eagles will look to establish the run first as they are now the second best team rushing the ball in the NFL. Mainly because LeSean McCoy is having a great season start as he recorded 120 yards and 3 TDs last week against Detroit.
The Jaguars on the other hand have a pretty average defense as they are the 29th defending the pass and 20th stopping the run. The Jags defense allows 300 passing yards against the Denver Broncos and the San Diego and I would expect a similar outcome against the Eagles this Sunday.
On offense Jacksonville will try to avoid mistakes when they are trying to march down the field, the QB David Garrard threw four interceptions last week against the Chargers and he needs to find his “mojo” back if they want to remain undefeated at home. It has been hot and breezy in Florida and the NFL Weeek 3 Picks experts are taking the heat into consideration on the Eagles vs Jaguars game. It will be the first time the Eagles have played in the heat since the preseason and they could gas out in the 4th quarter if they do not stay hydrated!
