NFL Week 9 Early Odds & Predictions: Eagles vs. Texans

The Eagles have been excellent, but this spread is egregious. It is unconscionable to bet the Eagles at this price, the line is clearly inflated due to Philadelphia’s status as the lone undefeated team in the NFL.

A couple of key trends regarding this game: Since 1999, double-digit road favorites of 14 or more points are 13-18 ATS, and never has a road team been favored by so much on Thursday night. I'm not suggesting the Texans are capable of winning this game, nor am I slighting the Eagles in any way. But it is unwise to bet on Philadelphia at its absolute peak market value.

Texans +14, u45
