MNF Large play

[hardcorecap]

I know most of us hate to bet road favs of more than 3, at least I know I do, but in this case I will do it. I really like Philly here, as they are a far superior football team. Dallas is in a tailspin right now, and it only looks like its gonna get worse. I can picture the Eagles scoring anywhere from 24-34 points, and Dallas no more than 17. I will take the Eagles here -6.5

Dogs have barked all year on MNF, hcc, especially in their own backyards. I hope enough people feel like you do to drive the line up to 7. GL

I know the dogs have been good, but we are talking about the Eagles. and also on PrimeTime football. My advice would be to take the Eagles, or stay away from the game. Could you honestly put your money on the Cowboys against the Eagles???? I couldnt. Probably the same people that took the Bills last night +8.. I took the Patriots because they were the better team. I could care less about the spread.

As long as it is 7 or less, I will take not just a better team, but a far superior team. I have been successful doing it. Philly is a far superior team tonight. Ill stick with them... Good luck to you tonight, whatever side you choose

 

[Dr.Pepper]

EXACTLY same people who put money on the bills and browns, will put their money on the boys.

 

[Salsantorre]

and the bears too?

 

[Salsantorre]

and the saints?

 

[Dr.Pepper]

are you attempting to compare the bucs and the titans?

with the steelers, eagles, and patriots?, gimme a flippin break.

 

[Salsantorre]

of course not, but the bears and the saints are cosidered bad teams, right? dallas is perceived the same way. the best team does not always cover

 

[Dr.Pepper]

yes, the bears and titans are bad teams, and they were playing average to slightly below average teams. the cowboys are playing an elite team in the nfl with one loss, i just dont see how people can look past that. especially after yesterday.

 

[Salsantorre]

I see your point. I guess it's almost an automatic play for me, i. e. home dog 7+.

 

[Dr.Pepper]

and trust me, i was with you yesterday. there were multiple games that just seemed like they had all the chances in the world to be close and even outright wins for the dogs. instead, they were blown outta the water by the favored.

texans were given 9 points, against a pourous indy D. got killed
bucs were hot, given 4 points against a streaky falcons. got killed.
cleveland at home given 4+ points against a team, which in history, tends to falter after playing an away game after beating an undefeated team (winning systems write up). they got killed.

people had the bills last night, solely based on the fact that they wound up beating the jets the week prior. they were outright killed even with 7+ agains the injured pats.

those trends just keep me moving towards the favorites more and more, despite the line.

and what has dallas done for anyone lately? parcells openly said his team sucked after last weeks game.

they dont care if they win or lose. the eagles do, im trying to see if the line will move prior to kickoff anymore.

 

[Salsantorre]

yeah, I had the most miserable day so far yesterday. I should probably fade myself, but I don't have the balls.

 

[jwblue]

Is the matchup tonight more lopsided on paper than Cincinatti and Denver a few weeks ago on MNF? I would say it's about even. Eagles might be a little overrated with their atrocious run defense. Dallas will probably score some points tonight and keep it within 7.

It's impossible to cap NFL games these days. The best play is going against the public consensus.

[Dr.Pepper]

lets compare denver and phila

RB
Droughns vs Westbrook (Edge to Denver, slightly)
McNaab vs Plummer (Eagles 150%)
Lelie or Smith vs Owens (Eagles 150%)
Denver Vs. Phila Defense (Eagles)

IMO this game is not close on paper to that game a week ago.

the cowboys are worse than the bengals. and eagles are better than the broncos.

to me that spreads it out even more.

 

[applepicks]

straight up

You should only bet on teams that can win straight up. The points in the NFL haved played a dif in only 29% of the games. Eagles over the boys in a big way 35 to 10.:howdy:

I am not sure where you are getting that the Eagles defense is better than Denver's. The Eagles defense is ranked #25 overall out of 32 teams. Denver's defense is ranked #3 overall. That will likely be the difference tonight.

[hardcorecap]

Eagles 27-Cowboys 13

 

[Dr.Pepper]

hehe i was saying in that game, but overall, yes you are right

 

[Dr.Pepper]

sal, im feeling pretty good right now.

im so glad i got my head screwed back on after yesterdays debacle's.

anything can happen, but so far so good. about to make 50% of my bankroll.
