Daily News | Eagles-Vikings predictions: Monday Night Football picks from the local and national media
. And the predictions back that up, with writers and analysts largely being split over which of these two teams will start the season 2-0 — the picks we found actually favored the Eagles, with about 55% taking the Birds.
So who is picking the Eagles? And who is picking against them? Here’s a look at some predictions from the local and national media, starting right here with our own Eagles beat writers ...After a unanimous Eagles pick last week, our writers are split on the outcome of this one, but all three see it being a close game. Even Jeff McLane, who picked against the Birds, doesn’t sound too confident in his pick.
I think this is a toss-up game. Cousins may not always dazzle, but he doesn’t make many stupid mistakes. He’ll take sacks rather than force throws, so it’s imperative that the Eagles generate a more consistent pass rush. Gannon has yet to deliver an above average performance against a quality offense, so there is genuine reason to wonder how he’ll be able to contain a Vikings team with multiple studs. But the Eagles offense will pose its problems and Monday night could turn into a shootout.
