The NFL has just two unbeaten teams remaining, and the Denver Broncos<\/a> will face one of them this Sunday. They also happen to be the defending Super Bowl champions. They are the Philadelphia Eagles<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Eagles will get the Broncos in their home stadium in Week 5, but the Broncos are coming off a confidence-building 25-point win over the Cincinnati Bengals<\/a>. But that game took place on Monday Night Football, meaning that this will be a trip to the East Coast on a short week.\u00a0<\/p>\n

There will be a lot to overcome if the Broncos are to improve their record to 3-2 on the season. Let’s see what the experts think of this one.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Denver Broncos vs. Philadelphia Eagles Week 5 Expert Picks<\/p>\n

Vinnie Iyer, The Sporting News:<\/a> Eagles 34, Broncos 20<\/p>\n

“The Eagles are in a total groove in reading the opponent on how much to be aggressive or conservative, run or pass. Jalen Hurts makes everything possible with the pivot because he is a comfortable toggling dual threat, no matter what receivers might be carping. Philadelphia might have some issues throwing downfield against Denver’s defense, but this feels like another game in which Saquon Barkley carries things.”<\/p>\n

Iyer chose this as his “Lock of the Week”, for what it’s worth.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Bill Bender, The Sporting News:<\/a> Eagles 26, Broncos 21<\/p>\n

“The Eagles continue to grind out victories. Philadelphia is 12-1 S\/U as a home favorite since last season, but they are 7-6 ATS. Will Jalen Hurts get the passing game going against the Broncos? Denver has given up an average of 288 passing yards per game in two road losses. This would be the week to do it.”<\/p>\n

Pete Prisco, CBS Sports:<\/a> Eagles 34, Broncos 23<\/p>\n

“This is a long trip on a short week for the Broncos, which is never a good combination. But they are coming off a victory Monday night that saw\u00a0Bo Nix\u00a0play better. That is important after his slow start. The\u00a0Eagles are 4-0, but the numbers don’t show a dominant team. Philadelphia will find a way to win this one, but it will be close thanks to the Denver defense.”<\/p>\n

Jeremy Cluff, Arizona Republic:<\/a> Eagles 27, Broncos 19<\/p>\n

“The\u00a0Broncos\u00a0get to go east on a short week against an\u00a0Eagles\u00a0team that just finds ways to win at home. That’s not good news for Denver.”<\/p>\n

The Broncos will have their first early kickoff of the season as the game is set to start at 11:00 am Mountain time. The game will be televised on CBS and their lead announce team, Jim Nantz and Tony Romo, will call the action.\u00a0<\/p>\n
