This screams Eagles bounce back to me. Raiders are falling apart, and while I actually think it might benefit them for Pickett to be starting (Geno is trying to do too much, and getting himself killed) I don't expect success against this defense. I wouldn't even be all that excited about starting Bowers this week (not that you can really sit him) or Jeanty (best chance of a TD though) even without (the overrated) Jalen Carter, I expect the Eagles pass rush to give the Raiders fits. 4 sacks feels like a fair over/under.
For the Eagles, I think the AJ Brown train keeps on chugging. I expect him to see primarily 3rd round rookie Darien Porter, who has been pretty rough. No reason to think Brown doesn't get his 4th straight 100-yard game. I think they look to get Hurts going early, before leaning on Barkley once they get a decent lead. Barkley feels scary in this matchup, where the Raiders not so magnificent front 7 (Crosby and the ridiculous 6 really) will get pushed around by the Eagles banged up OL. This could be a 20+ Barkley week easily.
The Eagles finally run some successful RPOs and Jalen ends up with 10-13 carries. This opens up lanes for Saquon and across the middle for the WRs. Last week was such an aberration with Jalen’s turnovers, AJs drops, etc. I just see a huge bounce back / get right game here today and a resetting of expectations for the birds ROS.
