- Bills +750 to +500
- Buccaneers +2500 to +700
- Eagles +4000 to +1400
It wasn’t the best Week 1 showing on defense (35 points allowed), but they did deliver on their promise to be more dynamic offensively, which also showed up on the scoreboard (38 points) in their win over the Detroit Lions.
Quarterback Jalen Hurts has a new favorite weapon in A.J. Brown, who caught ten passes for 155 yards in his Eagles debut. With an elite offensive line and a quarterback with plenty of mobility, the Eagles have seen a lot of line movement since opening up with +4000 odds to hoist the Lombardi Trophy.
Those odds have since been bet down to +1400, with the Eagles occupying 3.4% of tickets and 3.6% of the handle. If the defense can continue to build confidence, Philly should continue to be a popular team to target in the betting market.
