Eagles. Spread/ML, whatever. Eagles

Football is a game of matchups. I am a the best handicapper in this forum. I rarely spread the gospel, but I will preach for today´s game. The Eagles are the way, the truth and the light for today. Follow em and reach the financial heavens. 

1. Daniel Jones sucks under pressure, and he is facing a top D in terms of pressuring. 

2. The Giants try to rely on their run game even when Freeman is a shadow of what he was with Atlanta. And they are facing arguably the best D vs the run. 

3. The Giants have only one good weapon to cause damage to Phily, but Garrett (or Jones, who knows) refuses to use him (Engram). 

4. The main aerial weapon from the Giants this season (Slayton), will be shadowed by Darrius Slay, who is a beast (I know half of this forum probably don´t even know who he is, since you focus solely on offensive players). 

5. The line is drastically influenced by the absences of Sanders and Ertz. Ertz, has been a machine of catching 1 yard passes for no gains after the catch. Nothing that Richard Rodgers cannot do. And Sanders may be missed, but Boston Scott ain´t no slouch. He fucked up this Giants D last season with a monster showing. Also, Phily recovers Lane Johnson who is crucial to this offense (again, most of you probably don´t have an idea about who he is, so please google him and also look at his Madden ratings - which is the easiest way for uneducated bettors to realize the value of a player). 

6. Phily gets D-Jax back. This is key, since it may free up Fulgham from Bradberry´s shadow coverage. If Bradberry shadows him, then we will have a big game from D Jax. 

7. Ward has been an unspoken factor to this team´s success. He is facing one of the worst defenses covering the slot. I´m expecting him to shine. 

Bottom line: I think both teams will struggle to move the chains, since both defenses are good against the run. However, I am expecting turnovers from the Giants, and Phily´s offense on paper looks awfully worse than last week, but it actually is practically the same. The line for this game should be -7. Take the value.

 I happen to agree with your Eagles pick, should be an easy 10 point victory, but the part about you being the best self proclaimed handicapper on this site.....bwahahahahahahahaha...put the pipe down and back away from the keyboard junior.

If you’re the best,I’m gonna tail you better not let me down 

This guy is a fool, and he's just going after me and going against my pick.. Take his info with a grain of salt

I like the Eagles but come on dude. Who doesn't know about Big Play Slay or Lane Johnson one of the best OLs in the game.

And the reason Ertz has been bottled up this season is teams are keying on him exclusively in the pass game due to a severe lack of WRs for the Eagles.

Slayton got a bit banged up last game I hope he js hurt and D Jax is full speed.

To me the lack of weapons on both sides favors the Under quite a bit. But I like the Eagles look who they played recently, Pitt and Baltimore are almost undefeated with ravens only loss vs the champs and both have great defenses.

Giants offense looked pitiful the past 2 weeks and they only kept it close vs the Rams because the Rams were looking ahead to San Fran (ppus rhey just always play the rams close even when Warner was there)

Eagles have owned the Giants recently. But treas carefully when betting on a game between 2 bad teams (so basically, any NFC East game).

When you show me a writeup as good as this one (which has a 3% effort from my part) in terms of verifiable facts, I will concede your point. So far, 95% of what I see in the forums are 2 dollar picks with no reasons behind and just for fun; or guys making non-sense writeups, based on emotions. Very few guys with knowledge are here, and most of the great brains that I had the pleasure to discuss football with, are long gone or were banned.

Now, since my ego is big, and the gospel is already there, look at how you fully handicap a game. The writeup that appears in the link below, elaborated by Yours Truly, has got to be the best write up in the history of Covers. This is a part-time job my friend. And my other part-time job is handicapping golf/baseball/basketball or MMA. Take what you want, learn from my brain in the lines of Covers, and don´t be embarrased to come back and admit that you are impressed and thank me. What you see in the link below, is what I do with every goddamn game, every goddamn week, 5 months a year. And in half of those games, even after all that effort, the result is a "no play". 

So yeah, take a bow, and appreciate those rare occasions when I spill out my picks in here, and especially when I show you how to analyze and dissect a game, like the betting surgeon that I am.

@NutinButtLove

 Thanks Nutt, I agree with the Under, but I am not betting it. I see more than one turnover in this game, and turnovers can shatter your unders in a glimpse. 

IDK with Ertz. He looks slow. He used to be nearly on the same league as Kelce and Kittle. I think he is no longer even a 3rd tier TE. 

And regarding Slay and Lane, I guarantee you that half of the people in this forum have no clue about them. Especially Lane Johnson. 

@charlielo55

 Eagles OLine in shambles...Sanders is out he’s been the only offense. Take the Giants.

StraightBets was the goat

Giants +4.5 for me 

Giants over in a teaser looks safe however I think Philly gets bottles up tonight . 

And desean jackson is trash . Slayton will be the best player on the field tonight if he doesn't exit the first quarter lol
