The saying goes that teams that win outright cover the spread 80+% of the time. Although this year has been a exception as quite a few dogs have cover the line but not won the game.
Could some savvy players deceided tonight to place a equal wager on the eagles ML and the Pats - the points. With this in mind you could think that you have little risk out there with a chance to catch a 20-1 (or more play)
Say if you laid a dime on the eagles ML to win 20,000 and then the Pats -24 for the same dime (or 1,100) one would think you would catch one end of the play to break even or catch the big end for the 20-1. Now I know it would take more than a few dime plays to bump the ML on the eagles down the way it did before kick off. Just a theory I had on this.
