Question NFC East scenarios

thinking of laying a large wager on the eagles to win the nfc east -170

worst case scenario...broncos beat the eagles, and cowboys beat the skins

they play for the title at Dallas next week

what do you think the line will be at Dallas?

Dallas -3.5 would be the line....

There will be a lot of talk about how the Cowboys already beat them in Philly so I wouldn't be suprised to see it open with that hook

if we can agree that dllas beats the redskins this week

then it doesnt matter what philly does this weekend...

it all comes downs to the head to head next week

anyone see odds fo dallas winning nfc east? I only see philly vs the field at -170/+140

see dallas makes playoffs at -540..

you really think dallas is favored at home next week?

best scenario in that case is field vs philly at +140 with a chance to hedge

not sure abot dallas being favored though

I'm sorry but if you don't think Dallas would be favored at home especially after beating the redskins the prior week you're insane....

thank you

fratdaddy seems to think I only wanted his opinion on the matter

the day the kid is respected originating lines is clearly far away too

I wouldnt be surprised at a -1/+1 either side,

with the beat down last year in the last week,

dallas december woes which arent gone after one win vs the saints

at least in public perception

and the revenge from the first meeting this year....

al that weighs more than anything

basically no value here, philly will probably be slight favorites next week

so better to just play that game, which should decide it

assuming dallas beats the skins this week

No you just want someone to agree with you so you can lay all this juice when you'll be getting +money on the division in one game...

Dallas just beat a 13-0 team in the road. The redskins look in disarray. If the cowboys handle business they will have two consecutive December wins. Not to mention revenge factor from last seasons embarrasment. Oh not to mention the cowboys already beat the eagles on the road this season. Will also remind you their defense just shut down the saints passing attack

all these things rolled into one is why Dallas will be favored in the game AT HOME vs the Eagles.

Please don't tell me I'm far from linesmaking and all high and mighty. You don't want my opinion on the matter then please state that outright. Otherwise stfu

you already told me your opinion, noted...im not laying the juice ...It was an honest question

and you clearly do not understand future markets or how lines are made, that is clear

merry xmas

dallas would be favored if nfc east is on the line.....they are rarely home dogs and look at last year's denver/sd line to see how much home field means when making a line with a title on the line.
