We’ll have a Thursday game on this week’s NFL schedule as the Philadelphia Eagles (4-7) and the Seattle Seahawks (4-7) try to keep their slim playoff hopes alive.
Seattle will be at home for this NFL Network-televised clash, and kickoff is set for 8:20 PM ET.
The Eagles will put their 3-2 road mark to the test against a Seattle squad that is just 2-3 at CenturyLink Field despite it being historically a nice home advantage.
The Eagles opened up as 3.5-point favorites but were quickly bet down to -3 where the point spread currently stands.
The total of 45.5 has not seen any movement, and each of these teams has gone over in 6 of their 11 games this season.
The Las Vegas Hilton is the only unique line on the total that I’m seeing right now, as they have the odds at just 44.
The road team has won all 6 head-to-head meetings played between these NFC squads since 1998, while the road team has also covered the point spread in every one of those victories.
Philadelphia most recently won 26-7 in Seattle in 2008 as 7-point favorites, while the Seahawks went on the road in 2007 and grabbed a 28-24 victory as 3-point underdogs.
The over has been a winner in 3 of the last 4 head-to-head meetings, and the winning team over the past 6 clashes has scored 26 or more points every single time.
The Eagles have covered the point spread in just 3 of their last 10 games this season, but 2 of those 3 wagering winners came on the road.
The Eagles have gone under the total in 4 of their last 6.
Seattle has been a nice bet lately, covering the spread in 3 of their previous 4 while going over the total in 3 of 5.
