The Philadelphia Eagles are now 5-6 after a bad loss at home to the Green Bay Packers, and they head into Cincinnati to face a struggling Bengals team with the season on the line. Realistically, the Eagles will have to run the table the rest of the way to keep any hopes of the playoffs alive.
Report: Eagles will target WR DeSean Jackson in free agency
Both teams head into Sunday without their primary option in the passing game. The Eagles will be without Jordan Matthews, while the Bengals will be missing A.J. Green. You can find the Eagles-Bengals inactive list with analysis here.
The Bengals are 1-5-1 in their last seven games, and have struggled finding offensive production without Green and running back Giovani Bernard. Here are our five matchups to watch.
The Eagles head into this game at 1.5-point underdogs. I see a defensive struggle and narrow Eagles win. Here are our staff writer picks.
