After trouncing the New York Giants on Thursday Night Football last week, the Eagles are returning back to Philadelphia for a home game against the Carolina Panthers on Sunday.
The NFL odds have the Eagles favored in this matchup. The line opened with the Eagles as 3.5 home favorites, which is slightly more than the standard three-point measure. The action on the line has since caused it to swing to the Eagles being favored by four points, which indicates the early bets are being placed on Philly.
It’s not difficult to understand why people would put their faith in the reigning Super Bowl champions.
