SheikYerbuti Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 Philadelphia is a 3 point favorite on Thanksgiving? Someone please tell me why before I go all in on this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avernus Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 (edited) Philadelphia is a 3 point favorite on Thanksgiving? Someone please tell me why before I go all in on this one. Eagles D is still strong and they are at home... plus Vegas knows something that we don't, apparently...

i_am_the_swammi Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 (1) Cards only get two days to practice (Mon & Tues), then must fly cross-country all day on Wednesday (9 hours with the time-change)...(2) the game is a letdown game for the Cards after their big game against the Giants....(3) while not a "meaningless" game, it certainly looks like the Cards won't get HFA or a bye now that they have lost to the Giants, but yet they have all but locked-up their division (4 games up with 5 to play)....(4) Mcnabb playing in a "prove-something" game at home against a defense 19th against the pass.... (5) Finally, teams travelling West-to-East are horrendous agaisnt the number( 0-14 in 2008, I beleive). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Holliday Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 Being the Eagles are at home that line looks about right to me. The Cards are improved but you put them in the Eagles division and their record would be about where Eagles are right now IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thenflblog Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 Eagles D is still strong and they are at home... plus Vegas knows something that we don't, apparently... I agree with those linesmakers.... I'll tell you, I've seen so many crazy lines like that and more often than not, they end up being right on compared to my own expectations Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rattsass Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 As much as I am a Cardinals nut-hugger, I can't roll with you on this one. The Cardinals have taken enough of my money in these spots already. And as bad as the Eagles looked last week I completely understand why you want to unload on the Cardinals. We men are very visual. We know what we saw last week the the Eagles looking like a Three Stooges skit. These guys suck. It's the siren's song my friend. Because above all else, the Cardinals have STILL not won a tough game on the road. The last two times they flew to this time zone they lost by 4 to the Panthers and got annihalated by the Jets. They should win. We know they should win. Why are Eagles favored in this game? It just doesn't make sense does it? Look at it but don't touch it. The Cardinals could win this game. The Cardinals should win this game. The Cardinals will win one of these kind of games eventually, and it very well could be this Thursday. I just wouldn't bet on it. Burned too many times by the siren's song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

policyvote Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 Man, as bad as the Iggles looked on Sunday against the Ravens' D, the Cardinals IMO looked just as awful in struggling to beat a limp-wristed 49ers team a couple weeks ago. If the Eagles DON'T win and cover, you can expect the calls for heads at the Linc are really going to get loud. Peace policy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
