I'm on the Eagles +3 at even money and on the Eagles moneyline +150, but my biggest bet is on the Eagles moneyline +130 in the 1st half.
While I was leery about my full game bets after the Eagles had to play an overtime session the week before, I had high hopes for my 1st half bet. I was thinking that even if the Eagles proverbial gas tank went empty at some point during yesterday's game, they could still give me a strong 1st half. But no, they could only give me a strong 1st quarter. One quarter and that was it. They were spent.

They had me a little bit concerned in the 1st quarter, but when the Eagles only got 2 FGs I figured we would be okay.
HOW silly......did Jalen Hurts look when, late in the 1st quarter when the Eagles faced a 2nd and 6 at the Niners 14-yard line, he dropped back far behind the line of scrimmage, stood there like he was Joe Cool waiting to select which receiver he would target, then took one step to his left....and fucking fell down! For a 15-yard loss! I was left slack-jawed watching it unfold and knew this promising drive was ending with another field goal attempt. That is where my optimism for my 1st half bet began to fade.
You guys remember that play?

Yes, I breathed a sigh of relief at that point. I knew if SF held them to field goals that the game might turn around. Fortunately for me, it did. I really felt like the 49ers were a better team, but being the better team doesn't mean you're going to win. The 49ers looked so bad in the 1st quarter that I was a little nervous, not just about that bet, I've also got futures on the Niners and their shot for #1 seed and a bye would have been gone with a loss.

Something seems off with his legs for almost the whole season, not running thru aggressively, not getting those extra yards or the chance to, but when the tush push comes into play he look like the dude that can squad 800lbs again.
