As far as my thoughts, this Philly D is the real deal. They can pressure the offense without having to blitz, and that's going to cause Tommy a lot of trouble. They have a better running attack than NE, and that will serve them well going into the 4th quarter.
My only caveat is Foles. Hope I'm getting the good one and not the up and down one. But hey, that's gambling.
MY REPLY:
Good point about the Eagles' defensive line. The only counter I can come up with is that JAX had the same advantage. And they're sittin' at home right now. That said, it IS a major plus for PHI.
Speaking of which, you may wanna look into the over on the sacks prop. The Pats alone, I think have about 8-9 sacks this postseason. I think this is one prop I will likely play. I will also post my prop plays--and will try to do so a few days before--this time around.

Geez, I forgot the Aussie Open has different rules---and NO tie-breakers. They play full games until one player is 2 points apart...and wins. I can't take this....
I just missed +313 odds on Kerber just before this current game.
10,000 to win 33,130
Would've lost my 10K profit if Halep wins, but I could live with that....cuz if Kerber wins, I would get 30K.

DO NOT try this at home !!! I am a trained, degenerate, reckless gambler. These big money bets to win half back--or sometimes a fraction--are one of my weaknesses. They look like easy money--and usually are--but I HAVE been burned several times on heavy avorites.
A few that come to mind. Andy Murray was once a -2000 something favorite and I swear he laid down on purpose. I will never forgive him for that. I lost about 45K on that one.
Another was Golden State as a favorite of about -1300. I forget against whom. Of course, they lost against the pushover they should have beaten in their sleep. I lost about 23K on that bet.
Luckily, I got this one. Man, I was sweatin' .......

I bet this twice. I often do that...for assorted reasons. Anyhow. lemme share the line movement for the 2H, as I remember it:
Opened at:
over 73.5 -111
under 73.5 -102
Then moved to:
over 74 -106
under 74 -106
Then moved to, and settled at:
over 74 -102
under 74 -111 (finally settled at -112 when I placed my second bet)
After initially leaning toward betting the OVER, I decided to wait out the line a few minutes. In the end, I opted to play the UNDER 74.
I did not watch the game cuz it wasn't broadcast online. Plus, I was placing other bets. Point is, I checked in sporadically on the score, and late in the game, I swore it was gonna go over. Cannot remember exactly, but they were about 5 points from the over, with 2 minutes to go. Do not quote me on that.
Next thing you know, I refresh the page, and the game is over. Guess how many points they scored in the 2H............
A GRAND TOTAL OF 73 POINTS......
A mere 1 point UNDER the 2H total.
This happens VERY frequently, where either 1H or 2H scores fall within 1/2 or 1 point over or under the total.
Are Vegas bookmakers THAT omnipotent and great at their craft ???? (INSERT SARCASM)
MORAL: Yes, line movement DOES have a level of importance in betting----of course. But many of you who state this fact, fail to either realize or admit that you are making a bona fide case for game-fixing.
OF COURSE coaches and players AND refs are aware of point spreads, and they act and adjust accordingly. Look at the Saints game where they did not kick the extra point.
Sure, sure. It isn't mandatory. Yet, it almost always affects bettors..........wake up, guys. Those of you who ask for proof, do not really want proof. You want a 60 minutes exposé or a "deep throat" type recorded conversation or video with Tom Brady, in a secldued Boston parking lot. How naive are you?
