As bad as the Eagles are, a 500 straight up line bet on the Eagles pays out 1050.

Thats quite tempting. I figure the Eagles at home might just sneak up on the Bengals and play the spoiler role tonight.

Hmmm have to make my mind up before kickoff.

If they had a more consistent o-line and played defense with intensity for 60 minutes every week....I'd take that bet.  But they haven't shown that on either side.  They completely blew off the 3rd quarter last week and it nearly cost them the game.  Let's not forget they won on the very last play of the game.

it's up to you but I never mix business with anything that's close to my heart. I'd rather bet on another team than my own because there's enough emotion involved already.

The Bengals are pretty much in a must win situation for that last Wild Card slot and are very talented on both sides of the ball.   Be careful betting with your heart instead of your head.

Not betting with my heart, I'm a Redskins fan. I look for huge odds which equal huge payouts.

As bad as the Eagles have been this year, they should muster up enough discipline to beat the Bengals at home on a nationally televised game or at least stand a good chance of doing so.

I havent placed my bet yet, still on the fence. The pre-game shows arent helping me make my mind up either.

If you did then you are the dumbest man alive.  Everything about this game spelled blowout.  Bengals losing a close one last week...Eagles winning an exhausting game last week....Eagles sucking..
