## Birds open as big road favorites
The Eagles travel to Nashville in Week 2 as a seven-point favorite over Tennessee. Two teams in very different places, and the books are not being subtle about it.

> Every sportsbook likes the Eagles for this week, and by as much as a touchdown.
## One team is 1-0
Philadelphia opened the season with a win over the Commanders. It was far from a clean performance, but it counted the same in the standings.
## The other is a mess
Tennessee sits at 0-1 after getting trounced by a Jets team nobody expected to compete. Not the start Robert Saleh wanted in year two as a head coach.
## The spread is unanimous
DraftKings, FanDuel, BetRivers, BetMGM and Caesars all landed on Philadelphia -7.0. No book is offering a different number as of Monday, Sep. 14.
## Money lines tell the same story
Philly runs from -310 at DraftKings to -375 at BetRivers. Tennessee sits between +250 and +280 depending on where you look.
## Nobody expects points
The over/under is set at 39.5 at four of the five books, with DraftKings a touch higher at 40.5. That is a low total for a team favored by a touchdown.
## Week 1 was a grind
The Eagles beat Washington 24-22, close enough to sweat. A win that came down to the final possession is not the kind of opener anyone wants.

> It wasn't pretty, but it was enough.
## The line is a problem
Protection broke down all game and Landon Dickerson has since landed on IR. Saquon Barkley ran into walls and Hurts worked out of pockets that collapsed fast.
## Sloppy tackling on defense
A Vic Fangio unit missing tackles is out of character, and it helped drag a comfortable game back to the wire. Defense and special teams still kept the Birds ahead most of the way.
## Hurts and Ojomo closed it
Jalen Hurts made the plays when they mattered most, and Moro Ojomo stuffed a late Washington 2-point try to seal the win.
## The Jets ran Tennessee over
Breece Hall piled up 102 yards and a touchdown, Geno Smith threw for 215 without taking a sack, and New York led 20-3 by the end of the third quarter.
## Cam Ward could not answer
The former first overall pick went 19-for-32 for 140 yards and took three sacks, with a garbage-time touchdown as his only bright spot. Saleh said he was surprised by how badly his team got handled.

> Robert Saleh says he was surprised by the way the Titans were handled in all three phases
## Key takeaway

Philly is favored by a touchdown in Week 2, but the Week 1 offensive line and tackling problems are still unsolved.
