Three bets and one parlay to make in the Eagles-Cardinals game

The Philadelphia Eagles (11-4) look to take care of business against the Arizona Cardinals (3-12) at home on Sunday.

The Philadelphia Eagles (11-4) look to take care of business against the Arizona Cardinals (3-12) at home on Sunday. To make matters more interesting, former defensive coordinator Jonathan Gannon is also the head coach of the Cardinals. The Eagles are looking to continue being on the right track for playoffs, but the Cardinals still have an opportunity to tarnish the Eagles’ high-seed chances.

The Eagles are (-750) and the Cardinals are (+525) on BetMGM. Check out more bets I have lined up for Sunday’s New Year’s Eve matchup.

AJ Brown Anytime Touchdown

I think the Eagles offense has another good day ahead of them. The offensive weapons should expect to eat today especially since the Cardinals’ defense is below average this season. AJ Brown usually feels like a safety net bet for anytime touchdown, so I’m rocking with him today.

First Quarter O 9.5 Points

I think the Eagles get off to a fast start today. The team is home on New Year’s Eve against their former defensive coordinator’s team, so there will be rowdiness inside the stadium. I think the Eagles strike first with a touchdown and again with a field goal just in the first quarter.

J. Hurts O 251.5 Passing Yards

Part of the offense having a good day comes down to Hurts being able to execute offensively. The team is also fighting tooth and nail to try to keep their first-seed hopes alive (as long as the 49ers drop one more and the Eagles win out. I think Hurts has another great day at home and hits his over on the passing yards prop.
