Giants vs. Eagles Betting Preview 12/22/16 – Thursday Night Football

This is a 5* play on Under.

The Milwaukee Bucks are coming off back to back losses, and that might have them tighten up the defense here against the Hawks. The Hawks have gone under in five straight road games, and the under is 6-1 in Hawks last seven games as an underdog. The Bucks have failed to reach the total in five of their last six overall. This number looks a little inflated.

This is an 8* play on the LAK.

The Kings have just one win in five games, but they have covered the puckline in three of their four losses. They lost last night in St. Louis by a score of 4-2, with the empty netter adding to the tally. The Blues are the better team, no doubt about that. This figures to be a good spot for the underdog though, playing the second game of a back to back coming off a loss. The Kings are 5-0 in their last five after scoring 2 goals or less in their previous game. The Blues are 2-7 in their last nine home games, and they have lost five of their last six when coming off a win.

This is an 8* play on the Over.

The Washington Huskies are the worst team in the PAC12, but they are coming off a big home win over Colorado. They host Utah tonight, and I expect a high score in this game. The Huskies are terrible defensively, allowing over 77 points per game. The Utes have gone over in six of their last eight road games, and the over is 12-5 in Utes last 17 overall. The Huskies have gone over in five straight overall. We should see both teams reach 70 points in this one.

This is a Free play on on MUTD.

Liverpool is struggling, failing to score a goal in four straight Premier League matches. Normally they are a brick wall at home at Anfield, but their last two home matches were a draw to United and a loss to Burnley. Now they face the Red Devils in the FA Cup, and a return to form seems unlikely for the defending champions. Manchester United has conceded just one goal over their last four matches, and the Red Devils have been the better team since Christmas.

This is a 5* play on KC.

The Buffalo Bills have been the better team since midway through the season, and Josh Allen has been playing like an MVP candidate. That being said, Patrick Mahomes is just on another planet. I expect this game be very close, but at the end of the day the Chiefs have the better coach in Andy Reid and a quarterback that does things that nobody else can do. My money is on the Chiefs to escape with a hard fought victory.

This is an 8* play on Green Bay.

Tom Brady has had his moments with Tampa, but at the age of 43 I don't think he's well equipped to go head to head with Aaron Rodgers on the road at Lambeau. Rodgers threw for 296 yards and two TDs and the Packers scored 32 points against the #1 ranked defense in the NFL last week. Davante Adams had nine catches for 66 yards and a TD, and I can't see anyone stopping him at the moment. Aaron Jones has also been a beast, averaging 5.5 yards per carry this season. Last week's win at New Orleans was not really that impressive, with Brady failing to throw for 200 yards. Given that the Saints turned the ball over four times, you might have expected a more convincing win for Tampa. The Packers probably should be favored by a TD, but nobody wants to bet against Brady.
