Son, I was wagering on sporting events when you weren't even a twinkly in your daddy's eyes...YOU are the one who is the neophyte if you think that line can't get back to +10...+8.5 at 5 dimes right now laddie...
Now chill out with all that blathering and go play some video games to get your head right...
Wrong. The line at 5Dimes is +8 -110 and the +8.5 is juiced at -115
So you can stop posting bad information now. You keep showing that you don't know how to read lines or understand them
The fact that you actually think this line can hit +10 is beyond funny
Sorry but it's clear you just don't know what you're talking about

after what i seen last week with these Eagles anything is possible. its a shame though i actually was believing a Colts/Eagles Super Bowl could happen..
made the mistake of counting them Eagles out last year and didnt bet on them until the Super Bowl. this time im gonna be on them rest of the way and keep picking them as long they are dogs they seem to relish that role. Nick Foles had an unbelievable run last year he knows he has the self confidence to lead this team in postseason he's done it before. he played fairly average last week but something tells me he will have a better game this week.
Sip on that plus money honey!

Bears and Saints are two different monsters. Saints are a far worse matchup, this team isn't going to lose to the Eagles in New Orleans. This is another one where a promising team is booted, similar to the Colts but this game shouldn't be that one sided. They will be outclassed like the Colts were though.

One thing that got me curious is, does NFL really want two LA teams to play in this year's Super Bowl? i really doubt it.
Rams/Saints vs Patriots or Eagles/Saints vs Chargers/Chiefs might get NFL more revenue than two LA teams playing head-on.

Still too early for the trolls since they are still slumbering in thier caves but I will be peeking in periodically awaiting for the troll comments after they get their coffee and go into "bashing mode" with Scal's post. BOL bud. You've provided some very valid, rational reasons for backing the birds but an argument can be made for both sides. BOL my friend..
"Schrödinger's bet." A bet that loses when you bet it but wins when you DON'T bet it...

So...how much are you slamming the Eagles +8.5 for Scal?Line is moving up...might be +9.5 or +10 by game time...We talking 5k? 10k?

when the line moves up, take the dog!! Eagles is the play. Line moves down as it did in KC today that is when u go with the favorite. Vegas must think everyone is brain-dead to not have noticed this pattern.

Good luck Scal but disagree with the statement if the Rams would have kicked the Fg to go up 11 the Boys would have covered.. Not true it would have still ended at 8 because if down by 11 instead of 15 the Boys would have kicked a FG when it was 4th down instead of going for it when Talib committed the PI.. No brainer.. IMO..
Be careful with the axe Eugene.

of course they are but Scal brought up some good points which i was already aware of especially the revenge factor and to think that the Saints secondary wont get shredded with Jeffery, Agholor, Tate and Ertz? thats why i think Eagles got a better matchup here than the Bears. forget about running on the Saints defense. if eagles o-line pass protects well, Foles is gonna throw 300+ and pick on Eli Apple, the Eagles should be familiar with him. only thing Foles has to be careful is the INTs
Sip on that plus money honey!

dont think they do if they had a say in it. i think they would prefer Brees vs Mahomes. the passing legend vs the passing future but who knows. or Rams Chiefs again because of the high scoring game from earlier..

Foles played ok last week but the Team plays better with him for some reason. I don't like it's the 3rd straight road game for the Eagles and it's also their 5th road game in the past 6 weeks as well ... Will see what happens but I think the Foles Magic ends today

After all, he is playing against the Bounty Gate Payton. Who's to say that the cash wasn't enticement to hurt Foles? It's right up their alley in N.O...
I'm with you on the Eagles, just looking at every angle...if you ain't cheating you ain't trying is the Payton way.
Scal, any concerns with Foles's ribs?

Jesus stop with the Eagles talk, no one as big a birds fan as me, but I gamble with my head. For those of you betting the Eagles on the ML, have you considered this:
Has anyone on this or any other thread discussed the horrid Eagles defense???
Eagles last in completions and attempts allowed per game
23rd total yards allowed
Eagles 30th in fumbles per game and 24th in opponent fumbles lost
Eagles 25th in opponent interceptions
The ONE area the Eagles are good at defensively is rushing yards allowed. Which is great because New Orleans doesn't have a good QB who can throw the ball (especially deep) in a optimal situation like a dome with home crowd to support them.
The Eagles are also the worst 1st quarter team in the league, now recently they have scored and won the first quarter, and that is very important. Take yesterday, both winning teams scored first. It is hugely important that the Eagles score first if they hope to win. In the two meaningful games the Saints lost, they also lost the first quarter. In 11 of the 13 games they won, they either tied or were winning the first quarter, the only real game they had to make a comeback in the 2nd half was against the bucs on Dec 9th. So if they get ahead in the first quarter or first half, they win most of their games.
You people who are taking them on the ML are simply delusional, just give me your money and I can it burn it for you.
For those taking the points, you are a little less nuts. Personally I wouldn't go anywhere near this game.

Thanks guys!
“Better” is a gross understatement. This guy steps under center in a big spot and the team rallies around him circa Jeff Hostetler and the 1990 Giants.
And if you remember that year, the Giants won the squeaker of squeakers 15-13 over the VERY powerful Niners team no one thought they could beat (sound familiar?) in Candlestick just like the Eagles last week.
Sometimes you turn your capping card over to the David Copperfields of the football world and let them make money appear in your wallet!
I’m not sure what more this guy needs to do for you.
And as far as teams with momentum, a MAJOR factor in playoff football, there isn’t a better team to back right now!

Yea I think they can do pretty well on offense, but I can't see the defense stopping the Saints offense enough to score more points than them. They won't have as good of a time on offense as you think imo, I see them scoring around mid 20s. The cover seems a possibility, but the win I think is really unlikely.

Thank you for explaining why the line is 8 points.
If they had a great or even very good D, the line would be 4 or 3 so you can’t have it all! Give me a great D, a magical QB, a white hot team, a solid coach etc etc etc. if you get all that, there’s nothing to cap!
And as an Eagles fan and all that Foles has done for you, for you to sit on your hands while the guy with the greatest playoff magic is back AGAIN in the same spot as the Eagles miraculous SB winning year last year, doing it again, you should be ashamed of yourself. He is literally putting green (apropos color) ink on blank paper for you and you sit on the sideline like Annie Wilkes. You’ll feel like Paul Sheldon with your legs on wooden blocks next to the bed posts after this one!

The Eagles last year, were far far different then the Eagles this year. Last year just about everyone except for Carson and Sproles was healthy, they had huge confidence and a BYE WEEK going into the playoffs with oh yeah home field advantage. This year they barely get in, do you realize that if Houston made that comeback, they wouldn't be in. They beat an over confident Rams team that thought all they had to do was throw their jersey on the field, and they almost lost that game.
Use your damn head, if you want to take the 8 points, I can see that, I don't agree with it, but don't tell me the Eagles are going to stroll into what is the best home field advantage in the NFL, and walk out winners with basically a rookie secondary that got torched in the last half of the last game by a rookie QB, when you have one of the top 10 QB's to ever throw the ball in his prime with a week rest eager to just chuck the ball. Have you ever been in the Superdome during a game? I have, several times, I sat next to a guy in an all black spandex suit who called himself "Penalty man" and he threw yellow hankies whenever there was a false start called, he ran out of hankies before the half ended. Those people are loud and nuts, so loud you can't hear the person next to you speak.
BTW if you were smart you would have done a 4 team ML parlay on all the favorites, would have paid 2.5 to 1 and the only game you really needed to worry about was won yesterday in the first quarter.
Outside of Foles, give me one stat that gives me a glimmer of hope that birds will win this, give me something that the eagles are better then the saints at.
