Vegas Line- Skins at Philly
 

I had a hard time finding a line for the game but found 1. Vegas has us favored by 4. Me personally if this game becomes a barn burner it will be too much for me. I think we are far superior to Philly but I guess because of the QB situation we aren't more than a 4 point favorite.

I think we win this game at least 20-10... but will see hopefully this is a total blowout and not close like what Vegas is calling for.

Go Skins!!

a dont care if we win 20-19.5.all we need is the win regardless of the score.the way we are playing right now we should take care of philly,at least 27-10

Re: Vegas Line- Skins at Philly
 

If we win 3-2 I'll take it in a second and won't look back. But for those 3 hours during the game it will be a hellish nervewracking experience... it won't be much fun until the game is over.

Agreed I'll take it anyway we can get it. A win is a win but i'd prefer a blowout!!

Go Skins!!

Relax guys it is in the bag. Who do we have to fear on there offense? TO? nope Donavan? nope. On paper it is not even close but we can't take them lightly. I am sure we will be ready for the challange. 9 times out of 10 we win this game. Lets just hope this is not the 10th game this weekend.

I fear their best receiver, brian dawkins. Hopefully Patrick doesnt throw too many balls to him.

Re: Vegas Line- Skins at Philly
 

I haven't said much about predictions this year but our DEFENSE will CONTROL this game!!!!!!! They will give us short field all evening. I believe this game will come down to our run game. Gibbs will be concervative.....hopefully not too much. I expect a D touchdown in this 1, and a boat load of Portis. (Gibbs has been saving the Portis screens just 4 Philly) Would have used them but wasnt needed vs Giants and Dallas. :Smoker:
I thought he was saving HB pass but we needed it early in Vagiants game.Maybe fake punt....Who is our (Direct snap, run guy) on punts?

Winning is winning. It doesn't matter how you do it.

Re: Vegas Line- Skins at Philly
 

We're playing so well right now, but I still have a sinking feeling that this will be a really, really close game. Like, David Akers on to kick a potentially game-winning 53-yard field goal level close.

It's never easy to win in Philly, no matter what.

So long as Gibbs doesn't go back into his shell, we will blast the Eagles, and I believe he will continue to push forward, the last 3 games have re-enlightened him to the fact that you can't play conservative and win, you have to push the ball and keep momentum on your side, the second you go into a shell you lose it, then it becomes very difficult to recreate, we have attacked and attacked the past 2 weeks, I do not believe that will stop regardless of who is behind center.

Right now I feel we have as much of a chance to get to the SB as any team in the NFC!

Re: Vegas Line- Skins at Philly
 

offiss i agree. which team in the nfc that still left cant we beat?we can beat every single team still standing.getting in is the thing

Vegas oddsmakers usually give 3 pts. to the home team. So does this line mean we are really a 1 pt. favorite, or a 7 pt favorite? I always struggled with Math!








A "We Want Philly" smilie needed here!

Re: Vegas Line- Skins at Philly
 

I'm not making any predictions. The since I've stopped making predictions, we have went 4-0!

Im with you man...this one has me real nervous. Philly is gonna pull out all the stops, trick plays and try to make their season mean something by knocking us out of the playoffs. We better come with it, but I trust Coach Gibbs to have the team ready to play. I just hope the players respond and arent watching the scoreboard to see where theyre gonna play the wildcard game...

Re: Vegas Line- Skins at Philly
 

Isn't Dallas playing the night before? So if Dallas loses, there won't be alot of pressure on us to win the following day....although they'd still better win to improve their chances of at least one home game in the playoffs.

Re: Vegas Line- Skins at Philly
 

This game could come down to the final drive if we let the Eagles stick around. I hope we can bury them early so the players and fans lose interest. If not, it's gonna be tough as hell.

Skins favored by seven..........

Dallas plays Sunday night...after our game...

Re: Vegas Line- Skins at Philly
 

I would like to see us hit them hard in the first quarter scoring 10 to 14 point. If we can do that they will start to make some mistakes and we could captalize on them running up the score even more before half time. Making the second half ball control of heavy running and some short passes to manage the downs. I'm still nervous about the game but I feel Gibbs and the coaching staff are spending alot of time game planning and will not let this one slip away.

I agree; Gibbs will have the team ready. This game is way too important for the team to overlook. If we can pressure McMahon often, we should be able to shut down their passing game and focus on Moats, who can break big plays.

Not me, the only game's I missed all year was the first Giant game, and the last Cowboy game, but I was up in the air about the cowboy game, and yes I covered the point spreads as well. The Eagles will play us tough they are a very well coached team, but that won't be enough this go round, 27-13.

Re: Vegas Line- Skins at Philly
 

I saw that line yesterday. All of the recent lines have us pegged as a 7 point favorite. I can deal with that a lot more than the 4 points. I think Vegas is banking on Brunell playing as opposed to Ramsey.. Brunell is worth 3 extra points on the road.

Re: Vegas Line- Skins at Philly
 

As I told someone earlier, we should massacre this team. They are injured, beyond even the obvious injuries. They are starting a QB with a 2-11 record as a starter. They are without any viable weapons on offense.

But...

There are two things you should never do as a gambler. Never play cards with a guy named after a city, and never bet the first or last weeks of the season.

In the final week of the season, players with nothing to play for also have nothing to lose. They have the luxury of not playing next week, so they will play to a state where they don't have to be ready to play again in seven days. They want to go out as winners, regardless of their records. That desire makes this game very difficult to predict.

I think we should win handily, in a stadium that will lose interest (and probably consciousness) if we take an early lead. But I'm worried that this game could be very close.

Re: Vegas Line- Skins at Philly
 

Just when I start daydreaming about the playoffs I quickly remind myself the Eagles shouldn't be taken lightly.

They're a veteran team that still has a lot of pride. They're gonna give us a fight no doubt, but in the end they're just so decimated by injuries I find it hard to believe they can play with us for 4 quarters. This is a case of two teams headed in opposite directions. Usually we're on the other end of these matchups, anyone remember the 31-7 clobbering we took in the season closer in Spurrier's last season? Hopefully this game will be sweet revenge!

We're still favored by 7 and you can take above 37 points or below 37 points. I'll say 24-14 Skins. Go with the over 37 points and the spread if you bet.

Former Redskin N.D. Kalu says he'd love to ruin our season:

"Nothing against them," defensive end N.D. Kalu said, "but misery loves company. We're not going to the playoffs, so we'd like to knock someone else out."
