Regular Season: 33-23-1 +12.90 units
Playoffs: 2-0 +3.2 units
PHILADELPHIA +140 (1.25)
My line: PK, 41
The narrative on the Falcons towards the end of the season was that they didn't have enough in the tank to make the playoffs. When a late season run put them into the playoffs, the narrative was that the Rams, despite being a young team, were trending up, while the Falcons were on their way out. Then the Falcons beat the Rams. Now, AFTER ONE GAME, the narrative is: The Falcons are going to be back in the Super Bowl.
Quite a swing - never mind how rare it is for a team to go to the super bowl in consecutive seasons.
Conversely, a month ago it was the Eagles who were seen as the clear cut NFC Champions. They won home field throughout, but they lost their MVP qb, and the back-up has looked.....like a backup. I understand how important the QB position is to a teams chances. However, any team that wins 13 games, and plays consistent football in all three areas of the game, shouldn't be discounted. My opinion is that the market reaction to recent form is too severe. I believe the right number is a PK. I'd bet either team at +120 or better, just so happens I get the home team off a bye against the NFL team that has played the most games since the start of the 2016 season.
