Football Handicapping Tips

Pretty compelling arguments above that Philly is a very good trend play. Lets now give the handicapping breakdown of the Eagles and see how that looks!

Offensively the Eagles have not really been playing well. The key always to this offense is getting Westbrook involved. The running game though has really struggled in both playoff games. Luckily Westbrook out of the backfield is just as dangerous as a receiver. The Eagles must continue to feed him the ball even if it fails early in this game. McNabb is a much better play action passer and needs Westbrook to establish the threat of the run.

Defensively is where the Eagles have been winning games this season. Defensive coordinator Jim Johnson and his blitzing defense completely shut down Minnesota and New York in there first two playoff games. Also in there earlier match up Arizona was completely confused with the multiple blitz packages. This weekend they must make Arizona one dimensional by taking away Fitzgerald and the other receivers. Not sure Arizona will have the patience to march down the field by running the ball.

Craig has this against the spread winner and has the spread off by two and half points. Make sure you get in now to take advantage of this line mistake!! Craig has figured this game out and has this one covering by double digits!! Craig’s NFC Championship Winner is a guaranteed winner don’t miss out on this easy winner!!
