    Philly +110 ml amazing value!!

    Correct me if I'm wrong but if the Giants beat the Jets (tossup leaning Giants imo) then Dallas has nothing to play for and will roll over for Philly. A Giants win would set up a Dallas/NYG NFC East Championship game in week 17 so no reason for Dallas to beat themselves to death vs Philly. Dallas would know that winning Week 17 wins the division and going all out to win vs Philly but losing to the Giants leaves them at 9-7 and more than likely out of the playoffs anyway. They'll want to win the division and host a playoff game so they'll focus on the Giants and not Philly. Philly has already been playing hard for Reid and he wants to stay so they'll go harder than Dallas even if the Giants eliminate them. Bottom line:

    I'll gladly take +110 when roughly 50% of the time the other team will roll over and quit to conserve healthy bodies. If the Jets win then Dallas goes all out but I still feel Philly is better since Felix Jones is hobbled and the Dallas secondary has been exposed all season.

    correct. careful though saying playing for nothing, packing it in , etc. people tend to forget these guys are playing for themselves. not the team. playing for contracts, extensions, etc.

    I like it Mr. Handicapable.

    I'm playing Eagles ML and Chargers ML. Then I'm parlaying them and laughing all the way to the bank

    I don't think Felix Jones is going to play, Dallas just added another RB as insurance.

    Reading about Ballard out and Manningham doubtful for the GMen. They may have too many injuries to beat the Jets but I still like Philly to take Dallas.

    If the Giants lose, the Cowboys are winning.
