I go 2-1, Eagles insane, 'Niners suck
Last week I went 2-1 on the NFL, as Dallas(+14.5) won outright over the Giants, 33-20, St Louis(+6) lost in OT, but covered vs. San Francisco, 23-20, and Arizona(-3) lost outright to Seattle, 36-18. I've continued to fade the weirdly overrated 'Niners, and I somehow have $$ on every game decided 23-20 in OT.
I was sorely tempted to take Philadelphia(-3), but didn't. The Eagles romped to a 59-28 thrashing over Washington, jumping out to a 35-0 lead nine seconds into the 2nd quarter. Sick, but not as sick as DeSean Jackson's unfortunate comparison of the Vick-led Eagles to Pit Bulls, ready to get out of their cage and kill somebody. I guess if Jackson gets popped for running a dogfighting ring we can consider ourselves warned.
While it would have been nice to have some $$ down on the Eagles, I'd probably be getting killed if I bet all the road favorites I liked. Thsi was a revenge game for the Eagles though, and Donovan McNabb's sudden contract extension looks like one more indicator that Mike Shannahan and the 'Skins brain trust has no idea what they are doing.
Since it would still be nice to have some $$ on the Eagles, I've taken them at 9/1 to win the Super Bowl. While I doubt the Eagles will ever be as good as they were Monday night (not this year...maybe not any year) they just may have enough weapons to give everyone hell the rest of the way. I still have $$ on the Steelers at around the same odds--maybe 17/2.
Right now alot of teams are 8/1 to win the Super Bowl. How many?
Atlanta
Baltimore
Green Bay
New England
NY Jets
Pittsburgh
The next favorites are NYGiants and Phily at 9/1. Indy is 11/1, and the Saints and Chargers are 12/1. After that the Titans are 25/1, and the 'Niners are 50/1. I guess there are still some people sucking the 'Niner cock. Somebody needs to win the NFC West, unless the NFL suddenly changes the rules during the season.
Speaking of the 'Niners, I'm continuing to fade them. tampabay(+3)over SANFRANCISCO. Right now the vig is moving towards the 'Niners, but I'd be a bit surprised if this gets to 3.5
The Eagles are favored by 3.5 vs. the visiting Giants, and so far $$ is coming in on the road team. If this drops to 3 I may take the Eagles. Could be a big statement game for the NFC.
