Eagles odds: Birds are favorites vs. Cowboys — and to win the NFC East — but not to win the Super Bowl

Plus, can Jalen Hurts capture MVP? And will Saquon Barkley repeat as offensive player of the year? Here are odds ahead of the opener.

After the Eagles put an end to the Kansas City Chiefs’ three-peat dreams, the defending Super Bowl champions are back in action on Thursday night against their division rivals, the Dallas Cowboys.

From the Birds’ chances on Thursday Night Football to Eagles players winning year-end awards and, of course, the Super Bowl, here are some of the latest odds for the upcoming season at two of the biggest sportsbooks …

Eagles vs. Cowboys Week 1 odds

The last time the Eagles and the Cowboys met, Saquon Barkley eclipsed 2,000 rushing yards in a dominant 41-7 win to clinch the NFC East — and that was with Kenny Pickett under center. Barkley rushed for 167 yards after Jalen Hurts was injured the week before in a loss to Washington. That came after another big win over the Cowboys in their first matchup of the season.

Of course, this year’s Dallas team looks a little different from the one the Eagles beat up on last year: Dak Prescott is back. Micah Parsons is gone. Still, both FanDuel and DraftKings have the Eagles favored by more than a touchdown.

FanDuel

  1. Spread: Cowboys +8.5 (-120); Eagles -8.5 (-102)

  2. Moneyline: Cowboys (+340); Eagles (-430)

  3. Total: Over/under 47.5

DraftKings

  1. Spread: Cowboys +8.5 (-115); Eagles -8.5 (-105)

  2. Moneyline: Cowboys (+330); Eagles (-425)

  3. Total: Over/under 47.5

NFC East odds

The Eagles won the NFC East for the second time in three years — and third in five years — last season. But the division has not seen a repeat winner since the Eagles won four straight from 2001-04.

This year, they’ll try to end that 21-year drought and they’re favored to pull it off. The Jayden Daniels-led Washington Commanders follow suit in both sportsbooks.

FanDuel

  1. Eagles: -145

  2. Commanders: +220

  3. Cowboys: +700

  4. New York Giants: +1700

DraftKings

  1. Eagles: -145

  2. Commanders: +200

  3. Cowboys: +850

  4. Giants: +1800

Conference odds

The Eagles secured their trip to New Orleans for Super Bowl LIX by defeating the Commanders in a 55-23 NFC championship game win. The Birds rushed for seven touchdowns and forced four turnovers, claiming their fifth conference title.

And just like in the division, the Eagles are the favorites to win the NFC again. The Green Bay Packers, with their latest big addition in Parsons, are neck and neck with the Detroit Lions for the second highest odds to win, after losing twice to the Eagles last season, including in the wild-card round of the playoffs.

FanDuel

  1. Eagles: +370

  2. Packers: +650

  3. Lions: +650

  4. San Francisco 49ers: +850

  5. Los Angeles Rams: +950

  6. Commanders: +1000

DraftKings

  1. Eagles: +350

  2. Packers: +600

  3. Lions: +650

  5. Commanders: +900

  6. Rams: +1000

Super Bowl odds

Despite a dominant end to the season — including in their Super Bowl win over the Chiefs — the Eagles are not the favorite to repeat.

MVP odds

In terms of MVP odds for both FanDuel and DraftKings, Jalen Hurts’ chances of winning are quite low. The Super Bowl MVP doesn’t crack the top five, falling behind Washington’s second-year quarterback.

FanDuel

  1. Lamar Jackson: +490

  2. Josh Allen: +500

  3. Patrick Mahomes: +600

  4. Jayden Daniels: +1000

  5. Jordan Love: +1600

  7. Saquon Barkley: +6000

DraftKings

  1. Lamar Jackson: +550

  2. Joe Burrow: +600

  3. Josh Allen: +600

  4. Patrick Mahomes: +700

  5. Jayden Daniels: +850

  6. Jordan Love: +1600

  7. Jalen Hurts: +2000

  8. Saquon Barkley: +6000

Offensive player of the year odds

After his historic season, Barkley took home the award for the NFL’s offensive player of the year. Heading into this season, the three-time Pro Bowler is the favorite to win again. Ja’Marr Chase, Justin Jefferson, and Jahmyr Gibbs are also among the favorites.

FanDuel

  1. Saquon Barkley: +650

  2. Ja’Marr Chase: +800

  3. Justin Jefferson: +1200

  4. A.J. Brown: +4000

Defensive player of the year odds

Parsons is a clear favorite for defensive player of the year. However, there are a few Eagles players fans can bet on for a great payout.

FanDuel

  1. Micah Parsons: +500

  2. Aidan Hutchinson: +750

  3. Myles Garrett: +850

A loss of belief: Things aren’t getting better; they’re getting worse. The theme doesn’t just apply to the Eagles’ Black Friday loss to the Chicago Bears. It fits the narrative of the entire 2025 season. With five games to go, there’s little reason to hope or expect significant change to take place, particularly on the offensive side of the ball — unless ...

The Inquirer’s Jeff McLane and Olivia Reiner take a look at what the Eagles’ seemingly inherent flaws mean for the homestretch of the season, and how they could affect the fate of offensive coordinator Kevin Patullo. Listen here.
