Since then, we\u2019ve seen the line drop to Philly minus-3.5, and the total has ticked down a full point to 44.5. We already grabbed the Rams at plus-4.5, but even at the current number of plus-3.5, we still see value on Los Angeles. Yes, Philadelphia is 2-0 with close wins over the Cowboys and Chiefs, but they haven\u2019t been impressive. Offensively, they\u2019ve looked sluggish and inefficient\u2014if you check the yards per play metric, the Eagles rank 30th in the NFL, while the Rams sit at third overall. Defensively, Philly hasn\u2019t been much better, ranking 18th in opponent yards per play, compared to the Rams\u2019 defense, which ranks 3rd overall in that same category.<\/p>\n<p>This is also a huge revenge spot for Los Angeles after last year\u2019s 28-22 playoff loss. That game was razor close heading into the fourth quarter, with the Eagles leading 16-15 before pulling away late. The box score, though, told a different story: the Rams had two more first downs and outgained Philly by 52 total yards. What killed them were the two turnovers and the inability to stop the run\u2014Saquon Barkley gashed them for over 200 rushing yards.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bottom line: <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This time around, both teams enter healthy, unlike last year when the Rams\u2019 defense limped into the postseason matchup. We don\u2019t see Barkley repeating a 200-yard performance or the Rams losing the turnover battle 2-0 again. This game is a coin flip, and catching the Rams at anything over a field goal (+3.5) is a bet worth making.<\/p>\n<div>\n<p id=\"prop-bets-for-the-game\">\n<h3><strong>Prop bets for the game<\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><strong>Kyren Williams over-60.5 rushing yards -110<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Kyren Williams over-16.5 rushing attempts -150<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Tyler Higbee anytime TD +390<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Jalen Hurts anytime TD -150<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u2026<\/p>\n<div>\n<p id=\"added-plays\">\n<h3>Added plays<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><strong>NFL 7 POINT TEASER Packers (minus-7.5 over the Browns) to minus-.5 &#038; Rams plus-10.5<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Bet the under 44.5 in the Jags game<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>(Betting lines are subject to change.)<\/em><\/p>\n<p><span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.bleedinggreennation.com\/eagles-game-preview\/158860\/nfl-week-3-betting-advice-eagles-rams-pick-and-props#comments\"><span>0 Comments<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bleedinggreennation.com\/eagles-game-preview\/158860\/nfl-week-3-betting-advice-eagles-rams-pick-and-props\" class=\"button purchase\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Read More<\/a> Joseph Santoliquito<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Steve Maltepes, known as \u201cThe Philly Godfather,\u201d will impart his gambling wisdom on the Eagles and where the smart money is going on various pro football games each weekend this season.
