Eagles 4th game in 18 days. Will this have a factor in the game plan?

The Eagles are playing their 4th game in 18 days. I understand that both teams have very little time to prepare for the game, especially Houston since they are the road team. But the Eagles players have to be worn down by now. The Eagles are a very explosive team but if the texans keep it close till the end, I feel like the Eagles are gonna struggle because of fatigue midway through the 3rd quarter. To me this game depends on how the Eagles start off, and from the look of their last 2 games, idk how the outcome will be. I am laying off the game, but leaning towards the under (51)

Bookie I appreciate your opinion and you're not being a smart ass, I thought the same thing when I was posting this. I am figuring that because both teams had such little time to prepare for this game they both won't have what it takes to finish drives, thus kicking a lot of field goals and eating up a lot of time. Philly is a good scoring team, but the fatigue might cause them to not finish drives. While Texans lack of time to prepare will screw them over towards the end of their drives and cause them to kick field goals as well. This is how I see the game going, but I could be wrong. Plus 7 touchdown and a field goal will be what it takes to go over. But again I am only leaning towards the under.
Thanks for the input bookie and gl with your plays today
