After something of a must-win victory over the Atlanta Falcons at home last Sunday, the Philadelphia Eagles head to the Pacific Northwest to face perhaps their most difficult matchup of the season in the Seattle Seahawks.

Both teams head into Sunday very healthy. The Eagles have just three players listed on their injury report, while the Seahawks list just two. The Seahawks are also devoid of key players on injured reserve or suspension, while the Eagles will still be without Lane Johnson at RT for another five weeks. You can find the updated injury report with analysis here.
The Seahawks, as every NFL fans knows, have an outstanding defense. They are so good, in fact, that they have allowed the lowest point total every single year from 2012 to 2015. The Eagles are likely to struggle moving the ball with their lackluster targets in the passing game. On the other side of the ball, the Eagles' defensive line will try to take advantage of a Seahawks offensive line that has had trouble providing ideal protection for Russell Wilson. Here are our five matchups to watch.
The Eagles head into this game at 6.5-point underdogs. I see a defensive struggle and narrow Seahawks win. Here are our staff writer picks.
