Eagles vs. Patriots prediction, odds, time, line: 2024 NFL preseason Week 2 picks by expert on 20-7 roll

Week 2 of the NFL preseason kicks off Thursday when the New England Patriots host the Philadelphia Eagles. Quarterback Jacoby Brissett is expected to start for New England and rookie Drake Maye will also see game time in front of his home fans. The Patriots have yet to announce a starter for their regular season opener, so a strong showing from either signal-caller could go a long way.
