Hawkeye Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 Vegas seems to think Hurts will be back and have installed the Eagles as a more than two-touchdown favorite over the visiting Giants. The total is a modest 42(ish). I hate laying double digits to divisional rivals, but the Giants may rest key players, and the Eagles have everything to play for. Tension is high in Eagles nation. Note: kickoff time hasn't been announced yet, but it will be Sunday as the two Saturday games are set. Line: Eagles -13.58 Total: 42 Moneyline: Eagles -800/Giants +600 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxeaglesfanxx Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 Lol did they watch the game last week? No chance they win so easily unless they rest everyone. Which honestly worries me just as much because the guys playing would be rested and playing with a chip on their shoulder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sack that QB Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 Vegas thinks Giants are resting starters for at least part of the game. It's the biggest line of the week of any matchup. The Niners are only 13 pt favorites vs the Cardinals. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JournalistMic Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 Everybody calm down Eagles got this They only lost twice because they wanted to tease Dallas into thinking they had a chance of winning the NFC East & #1 seed. They'll defeat the NY Giants and we will all just laugh at the losses looking back at it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes and they saw a terrible QB that will not be playing, which makes a huge difference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiwinavega Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 Unless they know for sure that Jalen is playing, that line is madness. And yet... Vegas always wins... Eagles we average last week, terrible last night. How that makes them such hot favourites I have no idea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiwinavega Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 Although Giants have clinched, perhaps they see some players being rested? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe Shades 73 Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 Hurts playing. https://www.phillyvoice.com/eagles-news-jalen-hurts-start-week-18-injury-update-shoulder-sprain-giants-nfc-east-first-seed/?utm_source=pv-rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=pv-site "By the end of last week, he was doing better and better... looked functional, threw well, didn't seem to be in a lot of pain... The reason he was held out of this week's game wasn't really because he couldn't play the quarterback position... It's just really if someone landed on him and aggravated that shoulder. He wasn't quite there, but he was really close. Jalen Hurts is expected to go in Week 18, just like he would've been able to go if it was, let's say, a playoff game this past weekend."

Even then he’s going to be rusty. And you still have the same guys calling plays. If the script again is 30+ pass attempts and only 12 rushing attempts for Sanders that’s not a good thing. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southparkeagles Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 That should drop to -6.5 when the Giants play their starters for no explicable reason other than an attempt to avenge a previous loss and to further damage a wounded team. I mean, what do the Giants lose by not playing their starters? It’s not like they’re going anywhere, so why not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Shades 73 Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 The old lazy revenge argument. Giants really avenged on thanksgiving that early season loss to the cowboys. What’s next the tired nonsense that it is difficult to beat an opponent twice in a season even though it happens all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UK_EaglesFan89 Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 The Giants aren't going to play their starters and keep them in for the full game. I just don't see that happening. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Shades 73 Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 This giants coach is not the same dope like last year. He will do what’s best for his team. Which most likely is play starters for a few series. So Jerry Jones gets mad, I am sure he really gives a crap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now NYG gonna rest starters and stick it to Dallas 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pliny Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 1 hour ago, wrestlevessel said: Daniel Jones running around play style has to lead to an injury at some point. Exactly. If Jones or Barkley were to get injured and miss the playoffs, Dabell would never hear the end of it. Barkley, being their star RB, will need the rest. Jones may play a bit early on. But, I don't see him running around much. He took a shot at the end of the game yesterday when he probably should have already been on the bench resting.

I would not be shocked at all if Dabol used his starters. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
