Philadelphia Eagles: Best Bets for Week 7 against the Giants
Carson Wentz Over 1.5 Passing Touchdowns (-106)
Carson Wentz is putting together better performances as the weeks go by and is finding a groove with the Philadelphia Eagles offense. Sure, he was down four offensive lineman, three wide receivers, two tight ends, and a running back by the end of last week’s game, but he still put together a good performance. He is building a stronger chemistry with his young receivers and building their confidence, as well as his own. I believe he will carry that momentum into Week 7 against the Giants.
Throughout his career, Wentz has put together very good performances and stat lines on Thursday night games. In his four career Thursday night games, Wentz is 4-0 with a 10/1 TD:INT ratio, averages 203 passing yards per game, and has posted a 106.5 passer rating. His last three Thursday night games, he has thrown 3 touchdowns, and his only interception came in 2016 against the Giants. It’s safe to say Wentz comes to play on Thursday night.
This game will be no different. Wentz has thrown two passing touchdowns in his last two games against arguably the two best defenses in football. With an average already of 2.5 passing touchdowns per game in Thursday night games, this looks like a great place to put your money at.
Whether it be to Travis Fulgham or Greg Ward Jr. or even Jason Croom, expect Carson Wentz to find his receivers multiple times in the end zone tonight.
