Philadelphia Eagles betting tips and insight
The FanDuel Sportsbook at Live Casino Philadelphia is located in the South Philadelphia Sports Complex and walking distance to Lincoln Financial Field. Sportsbook manager general manager Bryan Newman shares his insight on betting at the retail location.
On Philadelphia Eagles futures:
Right now the most popular futures bet is on the Eagles to win the Super Bowl. They were 30/1 2 months ago and are bet down to 20/1.
“I think it’s very inflated. I don’t think they are a Super Bowl contender like Rams right now but the public here thinks otherwise.”
However, after a crazy Week 1, that included Dallas Cowboys suffering an injury that will shelf him for a weeks, the Eagles moved from +130 to -185 to win the NFC East. The Eagles are now listed with the fourth-best odds on FanDuel to win the Super Bowl (+1200).
Newman has changed his mind about the “inflated Eagles.”
“In my personal opinion, after seeing what happened with Dak Prescott getting injured in Dallas, Green Bay losing big to Minnesota, and 3 of the 4 NFC West teams losing last week, I have had a change of heart about my view on the Eagles and could see them as a potential Super Bowl contender going forward. If they pull out a big win on Monday night, expect their Super Bowl odds to drop even further.”
