In this article, we will formulate a Bengals vs Eagles Prediction for this NFL Preseason game on Thursday, August 7th at the Lincoln Financial Field. Let’s take a look at the prediction for this NFL matchup.

Philadelphia Eagles Preview

Philadelphia had an awesome season, winning the NFC East title with a 14-3 overall record and were almost perfect at home, with an 8-1 record. They were 11-6 against the spread and 7-10 in over/under. In the playoffs they eliminated Green Bay, the Rams, and Washington before dominating Kansas City in the Super Bowl by 40-22.

Now, the Eagles are gearing up to defend their championship, but they need to fill some big shoes on defense. Josh Sweat, Brandon Graham, Milton Williams, Darius Slay, Avonte Maddox, Garrett Bradbury, and Isaiah Rodgers are all gone from last year’s squad.

Offensively last season, the Eagles ranked 5th in the league, with an average of 29 points per game and they had the league’s best defense, with 18.1 points per game allowed. Jalen Hurts completed 248 of 361 passes for 2.903 yards, with 18 touchdowns and just five picks. He also had 630 rushing yards and another 14 scores. Saquon Barkley had an insane workload last season with 348 carries for 2.005 yards and 13 touchdowns, plus 33 catches. He kept rolling the postseason, with 91 carries for 499 yards and five scores, adding another 13 catches.

Cincinnati Bengals Preview

Cincinnati finished last season on a high note, with five consecutive wins to end with a 9-8 record, and they fell short of the playoffs for the second year in a row. They were terrible at home, with a 3-5 record, and were 10-7 against the spread and 11-6 in over/under.

Cincinnati is definitely hoping to avoid another rough kickoff to the season like last year’s 1-4 start, especially after that tough opening loss against the Patriots. The Bengals have some key spots to fill, as their offensive line has lost Trent Brown and Alex Cappa from last year’s squad.

Offensively last season, the Bengals ranked 7th in the league, with an average of 27.8 points per game. Defensively they were just 25th in the league, allowing 25.5 points per game. Joe Burrow ed the league last season with 4.918 passing yards and racked up 43 touchdown passes against only nine picks. Chase Brown is coming off a solid season with 990 rushing yards, seven rushing TDs, plus 54 catches for another 360 yards and four scores.

Bengals vs Eagles Prediction

The Bengals are 9-4-2 in their 15 regular season meetings against the Eagles, but the Eagles won their previous meeting, with a 37-17 score on the road on October 27, 2024.

In this Bengals vs Eagles prediction, the Bengals are coming as -6 road favorites. The Eagles are the defending champs, but that doesn’t mean they’re going all out for their first preseason game. They’ve got some injury concerns to deal with, which makes sense for them to rest their starters. On the other hand, the Bengals are planning to play their starters in the first two games to avoid those slow starts that have plagued them in the regular season lately. Since the Bengals are rolling out their starters, they’ve got the upper hand in this matchup. Take the Cincinnati Bengals to cover this one.
