4* Non-Division Super Play
Philadelphia has certainly let the Eagles faithful down in their last two home openers. Back in 2006, the Green Birds dropped a 30-24 decision to the Giants and, last year, Philly fell to the Skins 20-12. Those two home blemishes will certainly keep Head Coach Andy Reid’s troops focused for this game.
Knocking off St. Louis could prove to be an easy task for Philadelphia. The Rams haven’t been worth a lick in their first game on foreign soil posting a shocking 0-6 SU and ATS record over the past six years. Overall, this St. Louis bunch has been one of the worst road teams in the NFL. As a guest in their last 50 games, the Rams are a stiff 17-33 SU and 18-32 ATS including a pitiful 9-22 SU and ATS in this role matched up against a non-division opponent.
The Eagles are locked into a situation that has been quite profitable over the years. Since December 26th, 1993, Philadelphia has dominated NFC non-division foes at home posting a remarkable 33-11 SU and 31-12-1 ATS mark including a perfect 6-0 SU and ATS priced as a favorite of -7’ or more. At press time, the Eagles were laying a touchdown and a tick and they fit this undefeated situation.
Philly quarterback Donovan McNabb is finally healthy and that makes a world of difference for the Green Birds. The Eagles are a tremendous 77-39 SU with McNabb behind center and they have enough veteran personnel to make another run. Philly’s journey to the Super Bowl starts today with a convincing victory over St. Louis. Take Philadelphia!
