    My book has Eagles -3 (even).

    I'm leaning Eagles but I have been getting killed today. I'm good at college football but NFL seems to kick my ass.

    - I had Minnesota -3 and they blew a 17-0 second half lead.
    - I had Wash/Arizona over 45 and the total ended up being 42. Washington had a turnover inside the 10 yard line, had a 37 yard FG blocked, and missed a two points conversion.
    -I had Washington -4 as well and the only won by one point despite moving the ball all over the field and having multiple red zone opportunities in which they didn't convert.

    Atlanta looked like trash last week but they have an outstanding record at home the past few years. Also, I'm not sure how Vick is going to handle coming back to Atlanta.

    This game seems very easy for the Eagles on paper. The Eagles have the speed to pressure the Atlanta Falcons' secondary and I don't see the Falcons being able to stick with teams that have a lot of speed.

    However you have Matt Ryan who is I believe 18 - 2 lifetime at the Georgia Dome. Add to the fact that the Eagles usually struggle on run D, I think that the Falcons will be able to run the ball and keep the fast Eagles on the sidelines.

    However, you know Vick wants to put on a show on Sunday night primetime for his former team; I live in Atlanta and there is still a lot of love for Vick from the fanbase. It'll be interesting to see the atmosphere tonight.

    This is a tough game to call; I'm leaning Eagles -2.5 for the following reasons:
    - I think we are going to see a show from Mike Vick. I think at least 250 passing and 100 rushing
    - The Falcons have struggled the past few years with speed teams (destroyed last year by both the Eagles (w/o Vick) and the Packers)
    - I think Falcons are a bit overrated, especially on Defense; they could be exposed again
    - Mike Smith is 0 - 3 lifetime against Eagles

    Like I said, this is a tough game, and its just my 2 cents on the game. BOL to whatever everyone decides

    And Rodgers-Cromartie because last week Asante was getting burned all over the place by Bradford.

    I guess it kind of evens out with Roddy White and Harry Douglas having lingering injuries. White dealing with a knee and Douglas a concussion (this might make him scared to get hit).

    Eagles need to take away Ryan's ability to throw.

    I jumped on ATL +2.5 a few days ago when it was down to 1 or 1.5 at other books but now I'm debating what to do about it. I have a parlay that I figured would never make it to this game but did and I only put down $2 to win $150.

    I'm in the same boat but with lightweight money compared to that, you should definitely hedge.

    I could win $140 on ATL +2.5 or $75 with Philly ML with the very slim chance of hitting both but unlikely is an understatement.

    This may have some good value. Alternative Point Spread: Falcons -3.5 at +195.

    It would be a lot jucier if it were -3, but I think the Falcons win, and to get that value for at -3.5 seems good. IMO this game should be a pick em type game.
