They may, but the value has to lie with the underdog now. This is the biggest spread of the pre season. Nice chance to middle if you got the Eagles at -2.5 or better. I'd certainly bet half of what I had on Philly with the Packers at +6 or better.

Really?  I don't think GB has a chance this game, everything I read indicates they will be resting most of their key starters.  They will have their scrub #3 and #4 QB's in vs Philly's 1's.  I am inclined to leave my $2.5k bet on Philly PK as is.

I'm happy I got in at PK! I also got in at -2 on a separate bet.

-6 in the preseason has nowhere near the value of the regular season. For god's sake, the games are so meaningless to the opposing sides (most of the time) thay last nights Titans Chiefs game was ended early. Imagine that happening in a regular season game with and O/U - spread on the line. Green Bay has absolutely zero incentive to play hard until the final whistle. Their backups do but they are 3rd and 4th stringers for a reason.

OK, but it's not the smart thing to do with a better option on the table. You can minimize your risk while maximizing your profit in a situation that doesn't present itself very often. Best of Luck

Scal is spot on and so is your thought process CalBear...that Jordy Nelson injury will ring through that whole organization rest of pre season to say the least. There is something to be said about negativity and worry in ones head when playing/coaching sports, just ask Tiger Woods.

Like you said, the QBs for Eagles have had tons of on-fiel dgame experience compared to that of GBs...let it roll, as the Eagles will to the tune of a 17+ point win...bolta.

The lion and the tiger may be more powerful, but the wolf doesn't perform in the circus.

One of the rare times the world is on one side (and justifiably so), and worse, there is MASSIVE line movement against that side and it STILL hits.

Beautiful
