Philadelphia took a giant step toward missing the playoffs with its Monday night loss to Chicago and they should be primed for a rout in Week 10 as they host the Arizona Cardinals.
The Cards have lost 11 in row on the road since Week 1 of 2010, while the Eagles have now inexplicably lost 6 of 7 at home. But the Eagles Cardinals point spread could be trending towards an Arizona cover.
The Cardinals are just 3-15 SU as underdog iin 18 games but they are a money-making 7-2 ATS as a big dog of 9 + points. The Eagles meanwhile have lost the past 2 games as double digit fave. Of note, the over is 8-1-1 past 10 meetings between these teams.
No line had been posted by mid-week as oddsmakers continued to struggle with the Kevin Kolb injury situation. Expect the Eagles to open as double digit chalk at shops such as Sportsbook and Sportsbook.
