Who is Philly to be laying 8pts to anyone?????

Where are you getting -8?  I see mostly 6.5s, lucky if you get a 7.

They're the defending champs, albeit not having a great season, playing a back-up QB, banged up line, ect. Public perception is the biggest factor in setting lines. Right now, the public's perception of Philly isn't great so if the line is that high it's probably accurate.

Nick Foles Super Bowl MVP 

Not with a lot McCoy as a quarter back lol 

I got Philly -6.5.. BOL to you though! 

I think you're forgetting Carson Wentz and Napoleon Dynamite, I mean Nick Foles 

As per our 43rd President of the United States, George W. Bush said:

"There's an old saying in Tennessee -- I know it's in Texas, probably in Tennessee -- that says, fool me once, shame on -- shame on you.  A fooled man can't get fooled again." 

Eagles didn't cover last time?  The Eagles will cover this time.  Get'em while they're cheap at -6.  

Yes definitely throw some $ on Philly to be safe, you can win both bets

lol buying pts. square 101. colt should be playing junior college ball 

The line opened at -6.5 and has been 6 for the past week, so I have no idea on where you got 8 from.

Bigjc. I would like to interject some rational thought on buying points as it puts the gambler at a horrible disadvantage when doing so. As it is typical that purchasing a half point will cost you an additional 10% of your wager (double that to an additional 20% for a total of 30% juice on or off the 3 or the 7), it puts the gambler in the situation where he will need to land on his "payout" or "push" numbers a highly unrealistic percentage of the time when compared to the true odds of the event. 

Regardless of the vig boost, the expected value of your bet drops dramatically and is at the worst when buying on/off the 3 or 7. In the case of the 3 or 7, your "payout or push" number must land an absurd 30% or more on the number to show a profit. Most seasoned gamblers understand the implications of the math involved here but your statements above to EuroPro makes me think otherwise. The key word in your sentence ("seems"), makes me think you are not keeping track of how much money buying points has cost you in your lifetime (it's a lot). 

If you want to maximize profits, find a book that will allow you to sell points back (5dimes). This lesson is now over. Good luck if you continue down your unprofitable path.
