“Free Money Pick” for Thursday Night Football

Eagles V. Giants
Pick: Eagles -1.5
​By: Dean Persichetti

​
   
The Eagles are coming off an absolutely demoralizing loss, and may not have Lane Johnson tonight. That doesn’t matter, TAKE THOSE POINTS. The line’s moved from 3 at the beginning of this week to 1.5, don’t listen to those jokers. The Giants still have one of the worst offensive lines in football, and promptly removing that trashcan Ereck Flowers this past week won’t make Eli Manning a good quarterback.
 
Despite this Eagles team showing clear signs of regression from last season, and corner back Jalen Mills continually getting exposed for his ineptitude in man coverage, the Eagles still cover.
 
Look I know what you’re thinking, "this Eagles team sucks, you don’t know what you’re talking about Dean you’re a sucker. Odell is going to torch that BBQ secondary, and give Eagles Defensive Coordinator Jim Schwartz nightmares so vivid he’s going to have to scrub himself in holy water after the game." And you’re probably right. But the Eagles will find a way to win this game, and if you enjoy free money pick em and move on.
