Philly +4 or ML

In the past, that cliche is not true. I'm on it with you though.

Here's a good article in response to this fallacy. Although it's a couple years old.

Teams with a chance to beat a team 3 times in a row are 12 - 7

not when its Phily.

this is the worst damn reason for taking the right team...as some1 already said team that won the 1st 2 are 12-7...doest seem as hard as you think...that being said i think philly is the play just has nothing to do with this myth

[slacker00]

Teams with a chance to beat a team 3 times in a row are 12 - 7

If that team is at home, then it's 11-4.

If that team is better than 10-6 then it's 7-1.

If the opposing team is better than 10-6 then it's 4-2. If it's also at home, then 3-0.


None of these numbers are good for the Eagles.

Cowboys are gonna crush the Eagles....Philly is a trick team. All around the Cowboys are a better team in every dept and they're at home. We're gonna make em pay for spitting on the Star!!

pitt beat bal 3 times just last year, its this thinking that has the public on philly and the line concrete

[PeePee]

not when its Phily.

why not??? They beat them twice already.

[Pride>UFC]

That's probably the dumbest thing I've ever heard.

Just because the Cowboys choked vs the Giants two years ago means absolutely nothing. Eagles might win, but it's not because "Team A has trouble winning 3 times in one season vs Team B."

It's also hard for the Chargers to beat the Raiders 13 times in a row, but it doesn't mean it won't happen

[Slate]

It's hard to beat the same team TWICE, but once they do, it proves that they are just the better team. That's why the 3 times thing makes no sense.

That being said, I'm on the Eagles because I think they'll be more focused.

they should have been more focused last week this way they would be playing at home and not on the road
