Philadelphia Eagles (8-2) at Los Angeles Rams (5-5), 8:20 p.m. Sunday

The Line: Eagles minus-3/Total: 48.5

What is the line telling you:

The market opened with the Eagles originally as a 2.5-point road favorites and has moved...

Week 12 game status updates.

The Philadelphia Eagles issued their third and final official injury report on Friday in advance of their Week 12 road game against the Los Angeles Rams.

The Eagles ruled one player OUT: DeVonta Smith.

Smith did not practice this week due to the hamstring injury he’s been dealing with. Missing him obviously isn’t ideal because he’s a really good player. Then again, the Eagles were able to beat the Rams last year without him being a major factor (five targets, one catch, six yards). Smith’s absence leaves the Eagles with the following healthy receivers on...

Plus: more commentar from Philadelphia’s head coach.

The Eagles have another practice on Friday before heading to the West Coast for their Sunday Night Football matchup with the Rams, and head coach Nick Sirianni spent a few minutes giving injury updates and talking about veteran and WR evaluations.

He didn’t want to get too much into why Jalen Hurts was limited on Wednesday or how they were using that as a preventive measure, but simply noted the QB is good to go and will be out on the field Sunday night. Sirianni explained it’s a long season and a lot...

The Philadelphia Eagles morphed into a covering machine over the last month-and-a-half.

The Birds, who are a 2.5-point favorite against the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday night, are 4-1 against the spread in their last five games.

The impressive run against the spread moved the Birds back to .500 as a betting favorite. They are 4-4 ATS when favored.

On the other hand, the Rams haven’t done much covering of any spreads in 2024. They’re one of 13 NFL teams with a record of two games below .500 or worse against the spread.

The Rams are an average 2-3 ATS...

He’s 36 and doing commercials with his wife for Sleep Number smart beds. It does not mean Matt Stafford, a borderline Hall of Famer, is still not a threat to snap the Eagles’ six-game winning streak at SoFi Stadium before a national TV audience Sunday night.

The Los Angeles Rams’ record may say 5-5. That does not seem to be Stafford’s fault. He is No. 7 in the NFL in passing, throwing for 2,557 yards in completing 232 of 349 (66.5%) and averaging 255.7 yards passing a game, which is No. 6 in the NFL. As a team, the Rams...

I know, I know – two Jason Kelce posts in one day, but this is newsworthy:

On one hand, you ask yourself if Jason is overexposed right now. Too much, too soon? Maybe. On the other hand, you pause for a second and think about the post-retirement success that a fan-favorite Philadelphia Eagle is having. Here’s a guy who was a...

Should the Eagles sign him?!

March 7, 2023: The New York Giants signed Daniel Jones to a four-year contract worth $160 million.

November 22, 2024: The New York Giants waived Daniel Jones.

Whoops!

The Jones era effectively ended earlier this week with the Giants going into tank mode and benching him to prevent his injury guarantee for 2025 kicking in. But now it’s super duper officially over.

It’ll be interesting to see where Jones lands next. He’s subject to waivers but no team is going to claim his remaining contract.

Given their self-proclamation as The Quarterback Factory, we have to...

It’s the end of an era:

Giants are releasing Daniel Jones.

Should the Eagles waive Kenny Pickett and sign Daniel Jones? Add him to the quarterback factory? You know someone is gonna bring it up on sports talk radio. Maybe they already have. Jones is going to clear waivers and become a free agent, and my gut tells me that Jerry Jones is gonna bring him to the...

The Philadelphia Eagles and Los Angeles Rams will meet in a key NFC matchup this Sunday.

While the Eagles are leading the NFC East at 8-2, the Los Angeles Rams are on the outside of the playoff picture with a record of 5-5.

If the Rams can pull off the win, it could be huge for their hopes down the road.

However, NFL analyst Ross Tucker believes Philly will secure the road win this weekend.

“I’m having a tough time picking a team like the Rams to beat the Eagles…24-20 Birds,” Tucker said in a video that he posted...

Philadelphia made a tweak to their edge rusher depth.

The Philadelphia Eagles officially announced some roster news on Friday morning. An overview:

• OLB Ochaun Mathis was signed to the practice squad.
• OLB David Anenih was released from the practice squad.

Let’s sort through this news on a player-by-player basis.

OCHAUN MATHIS

Mathis has history with the Eagles’ Week 12 opponent; he was a sixth-round pick (No. 189 overall) by the Los Angeles Rams in the 2023 NFL Draft.

The 6’5”, 250-pound edge rusher logged 74 defensive snaps and 19 special teams snaps as a rookie. Mathis was...

Screamin A Smith went on First Take this week and expressed concern for Jerry Jones’ ability to lead the Cowboys, comparing the 82-year-old owner to Joe Biden before the President dropped out of the 2024 race.

Jerruh, however, says he is fine.

He did his weekly radio hit with whatever that station is in Dallas, and Brandon Contes at Awful Announcing transcribed a couple of the quotes:

*“Stephen A. is a fraud in a positive sense and I’m smiling. We are friends,” Jones claimed. “And I am having huge support and huge input and help from everyone he mentioned...
