    Default Eagles a Trap?

    Living in the Bay Area has made me very acclimated to the Raiders absolutely terrible performances, and this season has not disappointed. But why would Vegas make the like -14? And why isn't it moving more if 80% of the public is on the Eagles.


    Might be a no play for me, but the Raiders really are terrible and trap or no trap, this seems like a gift. What do you all think?

    Its a gift.

    -14 is the highest lines of the season, and books don't want to give a home team too many points.

    Besides only 55% on Eagle. Check SBRODDS.com

    Oh I was looking at wagerline, said that 80% were on the Eagles. I tend to trust SBRodds a bit more though, just hadn't checked yet.

    Yeah, I'll probably play the Eagles, I'm just afraid of a trap. The home team argument does explain the line being so "small" though

    Oakland often does this at home. They pull out a surprising performance against a good team.

    Very true about Oakland at home.

    I wish I wasn't so heavily invested in the Eagles in several parlays and teasers. If they could even come back to win -7 for teasers...
