[quote=Zybomb]I thought the same, then I began wondering WHY the spread was so low... so I looked into it

1. Andy Reid has never lost to a Mike Holmgren-coached Seahawks team (2-0).
2. Brian Westbrook averages 5.1 yards per carry at home.
3. Seattle has lost its last three MNF games.
4. The Eagles have sacked Matt Hasselbeck 11 times in the last two meeetings.
5. The Eagles are 4-1 at home this season.
6. The seahawks have an awful record playing on the east coast ( and both of their losses have come on the road, on the east coast this season)


the 3 bolded ones certainly do have things to do with THIS game.

Im going to take seattle tonight, but im buying a point and getting it to 2.5... if the spread were 9 however, I'd buy a point and a half to make it 10.5 and make a 4 unit bet on philly

Edit: If you look at the spread it has gone down from 4 to 3.5 which means people are taking philly... also right now it is -105 if you take seattle and -115 if you take philly... this means the spread may go down again before game time, as even more people are taking philly... I may wait and see if it'll go down on its own then take seattle
