Eagles Seek 5-0 Start Against Broncos’ Disruptive Front on Sunday

Denver’s 28-3 win with Bo Nix throwing for 326 yards sharpens the test for a Philly team riding 12 straight home wins.

Overview

  • Kickoff is Sunday at 1 p.m. ET at Lincoln Financial Field on CBS, with Philadelphia 4-0 hosting Denver 2-2.
  • Oddsmakers price the Eagles as roughly 3.5–4.5-point favorites, and most national and local panels lean Philadelphia.
  • Denver arrives on a short week after routing the Bengals 28-3, highlighted by Nix’s career-high 326 passing yards and a defense that has led the NFL in pressure rate, with Nik Bonitto a frequent disruptor.
  • A pivotal matchup features Broncos cornerback Pat Surtain II against A.J. Brown, as Philadelphia seeks consistency in a passing game that has lagged early this season.
  • Injury notes: the Eagles opened LB Nakobe Dean’s 21-day practice window and listed Lane Johnson and Jalen Carter limited; Denver reported TE Nate Adkins (concussion) as a DNP and WR Marvin Mims Jr. limited.
