Am I reading this wrong or are we getting NO POINTS!?

[terpfan]

No idea... the spread is zero? If so that seems like a severe underestimation.

[Stevviej20]

i dont think theres a line for that game yet cuz its not even on my gambling site i use

[triple6mafia]

I think that it just hasnt been determined yet becuase of the questionable status of brunell.

[Bostic Hog]

I don't think there's a line yet, because of #8's injury.

[deepo11]

yeah there is no line yet b/c of brunell injury....when the line hinges on an injury, line makers ussually wait until the injury reports come out on wednesday, but it could possibly come out today....

[Canyonero!]

We have a thread like this at least a few times a season. Vegas lines mean nothing. They're manipulated values that casinos come up with to make a profit. Nothing more, nothing less.

[SonnyRules]

There was an early line I saw on Monday that had the Skins favored by 4 points.

[ComebackKing]

Skins will win so put your money on them whatever the spread.

Skins by seven

[deepo11]

Even without Westbrook, Owens, and McNabb, the Eagles still have pretty good players at key positions on offense. Their defense played great against the Giants. I think we have our work cut out for us. Mike McMahon concerns me. He's a good QB. Another weapon they have on offense is #23 Moates. He reminds me of Ricky Ervins. But by game time the Redskins will probably be a 1 point favorite.

[Seabee1973]

id rather the eagles be favored that way the players woud be staeaming mad.

[tabularasa]

My oddsmaker is showing +7 for the Eagles. That is huge by NFL standards. Jax is only favored by 3.5 against the hapless Titans

No we don't, and no, he certainly isn't.

If the game is close, it will be because of the defense.

Well, I'm not sleeping on the Eagles. They were impressive in their loss to the Giants a few weeks ago.

[tabularasa]

You just better hope the Freaks ankle gets better. Without him as an edge rusher your rush defense all but disappears. Clinton hitting a Freak-less edge, ouch.

[PortisClinton]

Not sure what you are talking about we are favored by 7-1/2 that is alot for a road game.

We definitely should not take this game for granted. We still have a lot to do because I am sure they want to play spoilers especially since they are not in the Reggie Bush sweepstakes.
