we_gotta_believe Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Actually I saw a few openers with Chiefs -1 but they all moved so fast to +1, and now +2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrive Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 -2.5 in some places. Wonder where it settles by tomorrow? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Macho Grande Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Opened at KC -1, but it quickly moved the other way. Sharps are hitting the Eagles hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UK_EaglesFan89 Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 This is really going to be a pick em game. But then again every time we've thought this team was going to be in a battle they've just romped home. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swoop Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Im surprised they have us favored right now. Not because we're a bad team, but because of Mahomes. Not that Hurts hasn't been great this season. He has. Mahomes is just an alien. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said I do think we have the best roster in the NFL. So really this comes down to is it more important to have an elite QB or an elite roster. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I definitely would have preferred facing the Bengals as I just think our D-Line would have been a complete mismatch for the Bengals O-Line and our corners match up well with their receivers. Chiefs will be more of a challenge but I still think we have the better overall team and a critical advantage in the trenches. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Traveler Vic Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 I would take the Eagles. Our O and D Lines are much better. Hurts is back. And we just annihilated 2 strong teams in the Playoffs. People are afraid of Mahomes , but with a gimpy leg he is not a run threat that he was previously. I just hope that Our offense shows up early, and we are ahead by 2 touchdowns at the half. This way we can turn on our running game in the second half and roll over KC for the win. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cochis_Calhoun Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Watching them against the Bengals. Gannon has to have the corners closer to the LOS, quite a few times Mahomes got out of a sack with a quick throw in the flat. and it's the sort of dink and dunk thing that could give us fits if we don't catch it early. Overall though San Fran have a tougher defense and we got through them fairly easily once we wore them down, I also expect our passing game to be significantly improved on a windless warm night in Arizona. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel our dbs match very favorably to their wrs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And let our pass rushers pin their ears back. But I think we can neutralize their run game regardless 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KINGnabb Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Jalen Hurts is now 21-3 when the Eagles are Favored. He's also 19-2 over his last 21 Starts including the playoffs. Eagles taking this folks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BirdsFanBill Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 So based on the opening line for us at home against SF, is this saying that SF is a better team than the Chiefs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike030270 Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 If Chiefs had any other QB I think we're heavily favored and win with ease 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawkeye Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Actually the game opened as a pick, but that was immediately bet up to 2. It should be a classic - no underdog story, no lucky breaks, just the two best teams in the NFL slugging it out for all the marbles. Line: Eagles -2 Total: 49.5 Moneyline: Eagles -130/Chiefs +110 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SF has more talent but this is a QB league and historical QBs can make up for talent deficiencies. We’ll see. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PHI and SF are the two best TEAMS in the NFL, and by quite a margin. KC just has Mahomes who is a GOAT caliber player, hence the close spread.

PoconoDon Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 As of now it looks like Eagles by 2 to 2.5 points depending on the book. The money line is Eagles to win must bet $130 to win $100. Chiefs must bet $100 to win $110. As always, the preceding is subject to change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Often imitated, never duplicated. And I hope you're correct. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. It says the sharp money came in early on the Eagles when they saw a line that was off by a point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
