3 bets and one parlay to make in the Eagles-Buccaneers game

Despite a frustrating end, the Philadelphia Eagles (0-0) set themselves up for a postseason run earlier this season.

Despite a frustrating end, the Philadelphia Eagles (0-0) set themselves up for a postseason run earlier this season. The Eagles prepare to take on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (0-0) in another Wildcard Round matchup. Just two years ago, the Eagles and Buccaneers were in the same position.

Right now, the Eagles are (-150) favorites with the Buccaneers at (+125) underdogs on BetMGM. The over/under is set at 43 total points with (-110) odds in both directions.

Check out these bets to make in the Wildcard matchup.

J. Hurts Anytime Touchdown

I give out this play as an early doubt in the Eagles. I know even in winning situations the Eagles have started slow, and it usually feels like a Hurts touchdown gets things going. There may also be a situation where the Eagles need to deliver in crunch time, where that may rest on Hurts’ shoulders.

M. Evans Anytime Touchdown

The Buccaneers have a handful of great receivers that have experience against the Eagles’ defense. With the way the Eagles have played lately, I think they’re bound to let someone on the Bucs breakthrough and score, and I have confidence in Mike Evans delivering.

D. Swift O 54.5 Rush Yards

For Eagles fans, a perfect world would be to do exactly as they did before and let Swift cook. Better yet, it’s his birthday, so it almost makes a ton of sense for him to celebrate with getting the rock. Whether or not the Eagles decide to run the ball, I think this number is low enough for Swift to hit the over.

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

The Philadelphia Eagles (11-5) have one last shot to finish the season strong before getting ready for playoffs against the New York Giants (5-11) on Sunday.

The Philadelphia Eagles (11-5) have one last shot to finish the season strong before getting ready for playoffs against the New York Giants (5-11) on Sunday. Both teams have different immediate futures they’ll be looking to in the postseason, but will remain focused on what they see from their players in future games like this one.

The Eagles are (-200) favorites on BetMGM with the Giants being (+250) underdogs at home. Check out more bets and a parlay for this NFC East season finale matchup.

Jalen Hurts Anytime TD

Granted, the Eagles may choose to rest their starters and makeshift somewhat of a “bye week” that the team is going to need heading into the postseason, but if not, I expect a Hurts anytime touchdown at some point in the game. I think they might give him the touchdown opportunity and then put Marcus Mariota in, but I don’t see a world where Hurts wouldn’t get a rushing touchdown to round out the season finale.

Saquon Barkley Anytime TD

I’d say the same for Barkley. Against a divisional opponent, I’d assume Barkley is ready to throw a wrench in the Eagles’ playoff plans. In Week 16, Barkley earned a rushing touchdown and I think he’s capable of delivering again. If the Eagles defense is resting, this bet should almost be a given and you’ll probably find better value parlaying this with other bets.

O 38 Total Points

Regardless of who plays on Sunday, I think both teams are capable of putting up points to round out the season. I think whoever starts with the ball will set the momentum for the rest of the game. It’s an NFC East division on the line, so I think the Giants are either going to be trying to stop the Eagles or not care as much and just focus on good NFL Draft positioning.

This Christmas will be a very special Christmas if these NFC East bets hit. The Philadelphia Eagles (10-4) are back home to welcome the New York Giants (5-9) in an NFC East matchup Monday afternoon. Both teams faced their share of struggles but one of them will try to make things right for a Christmas miracle.

Right now, BetMGM has the Eagles favored at home (-900) against the Giants who are (+600) underdogs. Check out more great bets for this NFC East Christmas game.

J. Hurts Anytime TD

I think we see a big much-needed game from Jalen Hurts. The red zone is still giving me some concerns but where there’s a 3rd-and-1 or 4th-and-1, I know we’re getting a Hurts touchdown. Against the Seahawks, Hurts had two rushing touchdowns. Nothing stops him from delivering this week.

Total O 43 Points

Considering that divisional games can be a toss-up, I don’t doubt that these two teams are going to be going hard against each other. The Eagles and Giants will probably each put up a few touchdowns if the Eagles don’t attempt to come back into the W column.

J. Hurts O 1.5 Passing TDs

Back to Hurts having a good day, I think he connects with the offense this weekend and gets at least two passing touchdowns. We haven’t seen this level of play from Hurts yet, so it’s long overdue. Should the Eagles fall into a rhythm against the Giants, Hurts should manage to get two passing touchdowns on Monday.

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

The Philadelphia Eagles (10-2) face the Dallas Cowboys (9-3) on the road for a crucial NFC East division matchup.

The Philadelphia Eagles (10-2) face the Dallas Cowboys (9-3) on the road for a crucial NFC East division matchup. The Cowboys come off of a win against the Seattle Seahawks (6-6), but the Eagles are looking to get back to the win column after a loss to the San Francisco 49ers (9-3).

BetMGM favors the Cowboys at (-175) and the Eagles are road dogs at (+145). Check out great bets before the NFC East matchup.

A.J. Brown Anytime TD

When in doubt, rely on the guy who’s always open. I think the Cowboys are going to give him a hard time today, but with that adversity, there will be a play where Brown breaks through and gets a touchdown. It’s going to happen at some point.

D. Smith Anytime TD

In the chance that Brown gets locked up by Cowboys defenders, you know DeVonta Smith will be available. I’m almost always 100% backing an “if not Brown, take Smith and vice versa” kind of bet. Smith has been phenomenal throughout the gauntlet and I think it continues today.

Total O 51.5 Points

Throughout the season, the Eagles hit this specific over vs their opponents eight times. They’ve been high-scoring in some games and kept it close in others, but for both the Eagles and Cowboys to score at least 26 points today is a serious given.

Check out my top bets for the NFC East battle.

Eagles ML (-160)

At home. Eagles fans will be riled up. Key players are coming back. I think this is a recipe for success for the Philadelphia Eagles to take this needed game at home.

AJ Brown Anytime TD (-105)

Just keep feeding AJ Brown because he is delivering. An anytime touchdown prop at this point feels like easy money with this guy.

Total Over 47.5 (+100)

The Eagles and Cowboys are going to go back and forth tomorrow. It’s going to be fun watching them put up 20+ points by halftime. I particularly like the over at 47.5 points.

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

Who knows what’s going to happen when the Miami Dolphins (5-1) comes to  town against the Philadelphia Eagles (5-1) for the Sunday night primetime game? Both teams have explosive offenses with young quarterbacks at the helm. 

Who knows what’s going to happen when the Miami Dolphins (5-1) comes to  town against the Philadelphia Eagles (5-1) for the Sunday night primetime game? Both teams have explosive offenses with young quarterbacks at the helm.

BetMGM favors the Eagles at (-150) and the Dolphins are (+125) underdogs. The sportsbook is anticipating this to be a high-scoring game, the O/U set at 51.5.

J. Waddle Anytime TD (+138)

Usually I stay away from opposing team props when picking best bets, but this one is too good to pass up. Jaylen Waddle at plus money is astounding to me, he’s a phenomenal player. While the Eagles defense works on locking down Tyreek Hill, Waddle might be open, especially in the end zone.

J. Hurts O 46.5 Rushing Yards (-115)

I think the Miami defense gets at Jalen Hurts quite a bit. Even though some of the offensive lineman are coming back for the Eagles, I still think Hurts is going to rush around the field. Also, 46.5 yards for Hurts is a low number for him to hit the over.

Total O 48 Points (-175)

I’m not totally sold on the 51.5 that BetMGM has the line at. I think it’s going to be something more like over 48 points, meaning each team needs a handful of touchdowns and field goals – something we know they’re going to achieve.
