New England Patriots vs Philadelphia Eagles Spread 2011 NFL Picks Week 12: Two teams that were projected to meet in the 2012 Super Bowl square off this afternoon at Lincoln Financial Field, the site for an interconference battle between the (7-3) New England Patriots [-3.5] and the (4-6) Philadelphia Eagles [+3.5].
Kickoff for this game is scheduled for 4:15 PM ET live on FOX. According to NFL Point Spreads specialists, the OVER/UNDER between the Patriots and Eagles is currently set at a combined total of 50.5 points scored.
For New England, this team seems poised to win a third consecutive AFC East title. Despite having a less-than perfect season by his standards, Tom Brady continues to be one of, if not the best quarterback in the league. Ranked third in passing yards, second in touchdowns and second in quarterback rating, Brady and the Pats have a two-game lead in the division over the Jets and Bills.
For the Eagles, just being able to make it into the postseason would be considered a miracle. After coming into the season very super high expectations, Philly was never able to get going even with everyone healthy. With Michael Vick now limited due to broken ribs, Andy Reid has no choice but to trust back-up Vince Young to try and climb this mountain.
Young got off to a decent start, finding a way to beat the New York Giants, 17-10 despite not playing his best last week. The former third-overall pick completed 23of his 36 passes for 258 yards two touchdowns and three picks. It goes without saying that Young will need to have a better showing this week as 17 points will certainly not get it done against a high-power offense like New England’s.
"It's definitely a big win," Young said. "You see the excitement and the smiles on the guys and that's what we need, what we have to have."
