    Is philly -14 the lock of the day?

    I just don’t see a scenario where philly doesn’t cover this spread.... is anyone here not on Philly?

    Bears are only averaging 13PPG on the road. Eagles O averages 32PPG. Eagles D is ranked 7th overall vs the 25th ranked bears offense.

    It is. Better offense (including kicker who is playing) and better defense this year. They went to the bears last year and won by 15. Don't second guess a rookie vs the best team in the league right now. No trap here

    It's the NFL. There's no such thing as a lock and easy money. Bears defense is good enough to keep this within two scores and Philly is coming off a big divisional matchup last Sunday night so this could be a letdown spot. I might tease Philly down to 7 or 8, but this is just one of many really big spreads today and I don't like betting those.

    I hate taking big spreads; board convinced me to take Ohio St. -13 and I immediately regretted it...I usually opt for teasers (for example I teased Ohio St to -3, Auburn +16, Eagles -4 and Pats -7). Value is still good too as I did 500 to win 550.

    The Bears are going to run the ball heavy, which will burn out the clock and slow down the progression of the game. This means that the Eagles may have trouble covering -14 even if they're dominant, because there'll be less offensive drives in the game overall.

    And John Fox's job is in jeopardy so I'm certain he'll go for garbage time points if he can.

    Would normally agree here. The only problem...phily has the number 1 rush defense. So whats going to happen when its 3rd and 5 etc? Trubisky not ready to make the throws needed to compete here

    The Eagles have the #1 ranked Rush Defense.

    Just need to be careful of the letdown factor. That was a big game for Philly last week. This week they may not be as fired up.Plus using the word “lock”. 75% of the times when people use that word around here, the team doesn’t cover.

    philly pounds out a 20-9 24-6 kind of win with the backdoor cover in play.... i don't see chi scoring much but they can keep it close for a quarter or so.... the under is the value play for me
