2025 Philadelphia Eagles Predictions with Odds to Win the Super Bowl and Season Win Totals

by Spencer Toth - 8/14/2025

Philadelphia Eagles predictions Jalen Hurts

The Philadelphia Eagles won the second Super Bowl in franchise history last season, and they will attempt to avoid the Super Bowl hangover this year. Philadelphia made it look easy in the postseason, cruising to blowout victories in the conference championship against Washington before embarrassing the Chiefs in the Super Bowl. They have managed to retain most of their offensive talent, but some wholesale changes on defense will ensure the Eagles still have plenty of work to do. Can Philadelphia replicate the Chiefs' back-to-back victories, or will it be a short reign at the top for the Birds?

Offseason Recap

The Philadelphia Eagles had the best offseason a Super Bowl champion could’ve hoped for. Before we get into their defensive departures, the Eagles were able to keep their draft pipeline flowing with young and, more importantly, cheap talent. Linebacker Jihaad Campbell is an incredible steal with the 31st overall pick, as he was going as high as 12th overall on some mock drafts. Campbell will have a significant role to play on the Eagles' defense this season, but the good moves didn’t end there. They also picked up a versatile safety in Andrew Mukuba in the second round. Mukuba is exactly the type of player that will thrive in Philadelphia. He is aggressive, fearless, and is willing to take big hits in the open field. The Eagles also had an astonishing ten more draft picks between Rounds 4 and 6, and will likely find a diamond or two in the rough with those selections. 

On the defensive side of the ball, the Eagles will need their prospects to develop, or they will risk falling behind their dominant offense. Even with the Eagles' strategy of kicking the salary cap can into the future by delaying cap hits, they were still forced to let go of key defenders. Darius Slay Jr. was a crucial part of the Eagles' secondary for the last 5 seasons, and the impact of his departure is amplified by the fact that CJ Gardner-Johnson was also traded. These were two huge parts of the Eagles' defense that played almost every snap, and they will be looking to promote within the organization to reduce costs. 

It is always difficult to keep the same squad from season to season in the NFL, but the Eagles did a relatively good job of doing so. A couple of defensive departures will hopefully be offset by internal growth, and Mukuba is capable of slotting in Week 1 and never looking back. Philadelphia got crafty with salary cap loopholes to make this roster remain possible, and will feel confident they have set themselves up to repeat as champions. 

Season Expectations

To put it simply, it is always Super Bowl or bust for the reigning champions. Philadelphia will be expected to have another stellar season after dismantling the mighty Kansas City Chiefs in front of the nation last February. Losing their offensive coordinator will throw a wrench in their game plan, but the incoming Kevin Patullo has all the tools he needs to succeed in Philadelphia. 

The Eagles still have their offense intact from last year, and a frightening foursome of Jalen Hurts, Saquon Barkley, AJ Brown, and DeVonta Smith is impossible to slow down. The ‘Tush Push’ will be an integral part of their offense once again, and some of the credit Hurts deserves gets stolen by his offensive line. Hurts is one of, if not the most, physical quarterbacks in the NFL, and can easily squat 600+ pounds. The power he generates from his legs helps him both through the air and on the ground, and he has been able to complement Barkley’s run game quite nicely. Barkley broke numerous records during his first season with The Birds, and has no plans to slow down now. He can break tackles with strength and speed, and can even hurdle defenders when necessary. This Eagles offense is in safe hands, and a towering offensive line returns to terrorize the league. 

Philadelphia Eagles Schedule Breakdown

Things will not be easy for the Eagles this season as Philadelphia has the fourth-hardest schedule in the NFL. Their divisional opponents are manageable outside of the Commanders, but there is nothing easy deeper in their schedule. Philly will have to go through the AFC West, which features three probable playoff teams, and the NFC North, which had three playoff teams last year. To make matters worse, as a reward for finishing first in the division last year, the Eagles round out their schedule with the Bills, Buccaneers, and Rams. There are very few easy wins on their schedule, and they will struggle to limit the losses this season. The Eagles were lucky enough to avoid major injuries last season, but if a few key players go down, the losses could quickly pile up for Philly. Finally, the Eagles have an especially difficult end to the year, as they face off against the Commanders, Bills, and the Commanders again in the final three weeks. 

Philadelphia Eagles Odds

The Philadelphia Eagles have the second-highest win total in the NFL at 11.5 wins, which is not surprising considering how last year went. The only reason they aren’t top of the list is their difficult schedule compared to the Bills. Philadelphia has gone 14-3 in two of the last three years, with one 11-6 finish spoiling their streak. They will likely reach double-digit wins again this year, but it is hard to justify this win total given their schedule. Philadelphia not only has a hard schedule, but they also have been incredibly healthy, which is not something they can bank on continuing. They are -150 favorites to win the NFC East, and have -400 odds to make the playoffs if they do slip into the Wild Card race. In the postseason, Philadelphia is the NFC favorite at +300 and has the third-best Super Bowl odds at +700. That is certainly a tempting number for the reigning champions, but I expect them to fall short this year. These odds haven’t taken into account what a mess the NFC was last season, and a healthier showing will make the Eagles one of many contenders rather than the clear-cut favorite. This is the lowest the Eagles will ever be after their Super Bowl win, so even if you are on the Eagles bandwagon, waiting a couple of weeks to place your bets has very little downside. 

2025 Philadelphia Eagles Season Predictions and Best Bets

Will the Eagles miss the playoffs? Probably not. But are they a surefire thing to dominate the regular season before making another Super Bowl run? Absolutely not. Philadelphia is overvalued heading into this year, as its defensive losses haven’t been taken into account. The Eagles were able to suffocate their opponent’s passing game last year, but that will not be the case without Gardner-Johnson and Slay Jr. Furthermore, their beloved Tush Push was a topic of discussion this offseason, and there is no doubt that the other 31 teams will be looking to implement it while cooking up a game plan to stop it. Without that kind of automatic short-yardage success in their back pocket, coupled with a new offensive coordinator, the Eagles are one injury away from disaster. For the first pick, we will happily scoop up Under 11.5 wins at -130 odds. Philadelphia will not go 12-5 or better this season, and I am not even sure if they will end up winning the NFC East. While this is a great pick to pair with another future, the odds aren’t long enough to justify tying up a significant portion of your bankroll. Instead, the best way to fade the Eagles this season is to take them to finish 2nd in the NFC East at +220. Washington looks like they will only be getting better with Jayden Daniels, and the Dallas Cowboys could even sneak up and take the top spot. It is hard to envision the Eagles slipping down to third, and all the value is on a second-place finish. A 10-7 finish feels right for this team, and this prop is the perfect way to capitalize. 

Pick: Philadelphia Eagles Under 11.5 Wins -130

Top Pick: Philadelphia Eagles to finish second in the NFC East +220
