    I just saw somewhere on the net that the line is 24 if McNabb plays and 28 if he doesn't...

    What's crazy is that the Eagles aren't exactly one of the NFL's worst and the game is in Philly...

    Vegas is getting pounded on ONE team. How hard is it to understand the betting public bets favorites. The Patriot lines have moved upward every game, hence the betting is putting large dollars on the favorite. When the favorite covers, all the betters who helped moved the line 6 points, win the fucking bet.

    For a spread to move significantly, there has to be large dollars bet, to move a spread 6 points off its opening number is huge. If the Pats cover the 24 on Sunday, Vegas will have taken a pounding on the ONE game. Books try to generate equal betting but it isn't happening with the Pats. See the links and have your head examined since you have no idea what you are talking about.

    Have the Pats covered the spread in every game this season? And has that ever happened before, a team going through a NFL season covering every game?

    I don't think they covered the Colts game. I think they were -5 and won by four.
