MNF Game 1 Phi / Wash TV games are great for props. Often it's the best way to achieve action
on your handicapping opinion and it's certainly easier to find weak offers
vs your straight sides and totals. Although availability of props varies
greatly depending on your betting resources, I will list bets I've made
if I believe them to still be out there somewhere.
The Eagles and their new coach are an unknown at the moment.
Using previous performances is risky so will pass on the Philly
players tonight. One prop I did bet seems inconsistent with the
high total in this game.
UN 9.5 punts in game both teams combined.
This line should be no more than 8.5 with a total in the 50s regardless of
however many extra plays Chip Kelly will run. Played UN 9.5 -110 and -115.
Alfred Morris UN 1.5 receptions
Alfred caught 2 or more passes 3 out of 17 games in 2012. That's enough right
there to merit a bet. Add to that the fact that pass-catching back Roy Helu
joins the RB rotation after missing 13 games in 2012 due to injury and it
makes sense that Helu is a more logical choice for targets. He caught 49 passes
out of the backfield in 2011 so this is his niche. Played UN 1.5 -140 and -170.
I think this line should be 1UN.
