Vegas Only Has The Eagles Losing One Game This Season
This is your chance, Philly haters. If you really believe our team is as bad as you say then I welcome you to put your money against the Birds while the betting is good. Only one predicted loss? I’m fighting the urge to write last year’s phrase again. You know the one: rhymes with “Cream Beam”.
Believe it or not, this will actually be Michael Vick’s first full offseason as the Eagles starting QB. A chance to come in as the head honcho, rally up his no-longer-disgruntled offensive group, and dominate this league as he knows they can. But the main reason for Vegas’ confidence has to be the defensive improvement. Nnamdi, DRC, and all those shitty linebackers had to come in with no real training camp to a brand new defensive system. Now that we’ve added a legit MLB in DeMeco Ryans, another pass-rushing DT in Fletcher Cox, and a bunch of other talent on the defensive side, we no longer have to watch RB’s gash us for 8-10 yard chunks.
Great stuff, Vegas. On your game this year.

Where all da whiteys at?
vegas also predicted the Pens were gonna win the cup this yr…lets just wait and see
Except Vegas is forgetting that Mike Kafka will be your starting QB for at least 4 games next year because of your chess playing, paper mâché starting QB.
If you think any bookie in the country would take action on those lines you’re fucking crazy. I don’t know what “Vegas” those came from, but it wasn’t the one in Nevada. Eagles fan here through and through…would be shocked to see them go 9-7 this year. Giants are the class of the division, Cowboys will be in shitsville as long as Al Davi…er…Jerry Jones thinks Romo is a franchise QB, and the Skins will be finding out just how horribly inaccurate RGIII is for the year…before Shanny gets fired mid-2013. So where does that leave the Birds? Probably 8-8 in the middle of that crap zone. Giants win the division easily. Disgusting.
I’d like to say right here that I have made three betting suggestions in the last two days, all documented in posts over that time. (1) Bet the Bulls -5 vs. the Sixers. Correct. (2) Take the Heat -11 vs. the Knicks. Correct. (3) Play the Moneyline -850 on the Heat for as much money as you can cram into your bookie’s back pocket. Correct. So…Mo when am I going to get a shout out? Do I have to get 5 right? Or 10 right? I’ll keep going on your next sports-related post. Get your Jacksons ready. As in Andrew, not Michael.
No mention of who the Eagles are underdogs to?
PS – tr1d3nt has it right – these lines are set, especially the ones less than 3pts, to get action. If people jump on the Eagles covering a 1pt spread this early, they’re bound to make some serious cash
I forgot I also took THE GRIZ laying 5 yesterday too! That’s four in a row right on this fucking blog! I should be charging for this action.
Birds all the way. Fuck NYG. Fuck Dallas. Fuck em all. The odds are in our favor. Superbowl or bust for Andy Reid’s mustache.
Hey baldy, the line is right fucking there you moron
Eagles underdogs to the saints dumbass baldbobbo, it says it right there
bengals plus 7 sign me up,
If you for one second think these spreads will turn out to be accurate you are delusional. And the one team they are an underdog against is the Saints? Please. Anyways, if you read the actual press release from Cantor Gaming you would know how the Vegas sharps were betting: “Cantor took lots of bets against Tampa Bay, Philly, K.C. and Indy – reflecting a belief that sportsbook director Mike Colbert and his oddsmakers overvalued them.”
@gourmetgoulet I didn’t know that was Cantor Gaming, that’s hysterical. First of all they are a New York operated company (Cantor Fitzgerald), the whole Cantor Gaming piece was just for the Venetian and now they’re in the Cosmo and Palms and fucking around in the “sub-contracted sports book” world. This whole exercise is just to drive a little pub their way as they try to push into some other casinos. Smart! But it has nothing to do with actual NFL lines. I’m actually going to put a call out to see if I can get a hundie on the Steelers +1 at home vs. the Eagles. I’ll take that right now. I’m going to take a wild guess and say no one will take the action?? Call me crazy!
these are bogus. the eagles are 6.5 point favorites over the falcons? yeah right.
trident, you are a joke
@tr1d3nt
Is your real name Sarah Phillips by any chance?
Trident- pretty sure my 2 year old daughter could have made those 3 picks. And gourmetgoulet- if you think your Eagles or anybody else is beating the Saints in New Orleans you haven’t been watching football for the last few years.

great stories, keep em coming

Possible wins – Browns, Cardinals, Saints, Panthers, Buccaneers, Bengals and one of the Cowboy games and one of the Redskins games. So that’s 8 wins and the rest as “maybe’s.” So they win the other half of the ‘maybes’ so my best, best, best case I’d give them 12 wins depending how and when in the schedule the back-up QB plays…because you know he will.
Can I bet the Under on that????
That’s 2 people now that have the Saints game IN New Orleans as a win for the Eagles. I really can’t wait for this season. There’s not a shot in hell the Eagles win the game in the Superdome.
All the trouble of these guys coming up with these lines 4 months before the season starts and they cop out with ‘no line’ in the last game against the Giants. Haha.
Jesus H Christ you can’t honestly take Vegas lines seriously before training camp can you?!? Eagles will underachieve as always. NYG allllll god damn day
Oh that’s right, I forgot when Vegas favors a team they automatically win. This blog epitomizes why people hate philly fans.
@bradyanderson
You must be a little slow, so I’ll help you out chief. Mo wrote the whole article sceptical of these lines. He wasn’t saying it was a guarantee. You’re a fucking retard. Your comment epitomizes why people hate retards like yourself.
I can’t believe all these haters. I’m just laying out lines of gold and all you have to do is sniff them up. And for the fucking dolt who said his 2-year old daughter could have picked the lines, I guess you have the secret formula for putting Vegas out of business!! Write a book fuck chop! I’ll be your first customer! She must be a special genius! God I love the people who say they COULD have picked those games…after the games. Go pick a fucking line tonight and show me up. Then go to WordPress, change your name, and come hate again. What a bunch of fucking pansies.
I guarantee that Vick’s move in the pic above was identical to Austin Powers’ opening move……. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nQM0Ee4oucM&feature=youtube_gdata_player
Because VEGAS is usually right! 2008: Mets will win the world series 2011: Red Sox will win World Series 2011: Eagles will win super bowl, Welp. All those things came true.. So. Eagles are the greatest!!!!
You obviously learned nothing from last off season’s expectations!
Eagles are going to lose every game VS the NFC South
Hire tr1d3nt.
The number of people who don’t understand the tone of disbelive in Mo’s writing is mind bottling. @k1dd0 I am absolutely astonished that you were able to type out a comment with your level of downs. You must be a fucking water head if you think Mo is saying that. Do everyone a favor and go sterilize yourself.
Wow ningenito is a special kind of retard. My eagles? Not even close, can’t stand them. In my post about how everyone has been betting against these ridiculous spreads you took me as an Eagles fan? Somehow you thought that, not only did I agree with all these spreads and that the Eagles would win, but that they would also beat the Saints and go undefeated? Clearly I found it funny that was the only game they were pegged to lose. They aren’t beating the Ravens, Steelers, or Giants…and honestly I don’t think that Saints matchup is the toughest. I’m pretty sure they don’t have a head coach, so there’s that
take vick in as the first pick in your fantasy league this year, you fucking punk.
