Jeeze more guys are out???!!!! UGH.

Nothing like being down 4 starters after one week. That rest in the preseason did wonders.

A cynic would say it's about a half point shade to draw money on the Vikings. 

The Eagles are almost always overbet, particularly at home. 

Yep

I am concerned about our injury list. Our Defense got banged up. No Bradbury, No Dean. No Blankenship.

Same...I'm terribly worried about the middle of the field.

Let's hope Desai can cook some things up in coverage and the d-line gets pressure, if not, it will take a shootout to come out with the W 

The Vikings OLine is really dinged up right now so hopefully with more pressure on Cousins, we won’t have to rely on Jobe and Jones and Morrow and Cunningham and Ellis as much…haha.  But for real, hopefully our DLine can totally dominate and ease the pressure on the LBs and DBs.  If not….oof.

Losing two key players plus Dean in the span of two games for the defense is a disaster. With Gainwell hopefully Swift, and Perry can show up in this one. The offense that looked real shaky verses the Pats is going to have to carry this one.

That’s a huge huge blow without Bradberry and Blankenship. I think that puts us right up against it I’ll be honest.

What the heck happened to Gainwell that he's out?? 

I think our Defense will suck tonight. 

The Offense will have to win this one.

This unfortunately, unless the line can create consistent pressure early and often, and the corners challenge the receivers a bit more than usual.

Let’s hope so. Because our LBs and Safeties, in the passing game, may get ripped apart.

 

 

Dropped to -6

Last week opened at -4.5 and dropped to -3.5

Was this before or after they announced the Eagles were without Reed, Bradberry, Dean, and Gainwell?

IT is not that bad. We have other guys to step up for one game against the Vikings. I am more worried about balanced attack on our offense and coaches play calling than the state of defense at this point. Want to see more running game calls, and by that I do not mean Hurts. My wish is Our offensive line showing dominance in the running game.

Injuries are a fickle thing. Most of that is luck at best.

Spot on, as it turns out.  
Lucky push considering the missed FG. But I’m guessing most bettors played early and took the beat (-7ish).  

Eagles are now 0-2 or 0-1-1 ATS.

It actually closed at -3.5 so you're right.
