Friday NFLX Total I played Phil/Cin over 37.
Andy Reid has now led the Eagles to 8 consecutive "overs" in preseason games. In fact the "over" has cashed in 12 of Reid's last 14 exhibition contests.He plans on playing his starters for the entire first half. Michael Vick will play the third quarter and Kafka will finish the fourth.Reid stated that the Eagles will come into this game with an offensive mindset.Even though they racked up 500+ yards in their last game versus Jax, they had to settle for 5 field goals.Philly's second unit was burned repeatedly by journeyman,Luke McCown, who passed for 244 yards and 3 td's in the second half.
This will be the Bengals third game of the preseason.Since Ochocinco has been targeted only 3 times with one catch in the first two contests, expect him to have a good game versus a suspect Eagles' secondary.Philly's best cover corner, Asante Samuels, will not play tonight. Expect either T.O. or Ochocinco to make at least one big play.Coach Lewis has already said that his starters will play more than they have in the prior two games.It is very possible that his starters will also play the entire first half.Cincy put up 33 points last week versus Denver and got decent production from QB O'Sullivan (7-11 for 118 yds in the third quarter).
Good luck,
