Can Foles Re-Capture Playoff Magic?

Last year Foles took over for an injured Carson Wentz and led Philly to becoming Super Bowl Champions.

Foles has been thrust into a similar situation this year and has again responded with a 4-1 record in five starts. While two came at the beginning of the year, Foles has led the Eagles to three straight wins over the Rams, Texans and Redskins.

The Eagles as a whole have run off five wins in their past six with their only loss coming in a 29-23 overtime defeat to the Cowboys in Week 14.

There was some concern Foles could miss out on the Wild Card game against Chicago after he left yesterday’s game with bruised ribs. However, Head Coach Doug Pederson announced on Monday that Foles will be ready to start against the Bears.

Can the Eagles do it? The team responds to Foles and they definitely have the experience to know what it takes for a long playoff run.

By the Bears choosing to play their starters and beat the Vikings they were essentially calling their shot and saying they preferred to play the Eagles. That could be used as extra motivation by Pederson.

The Eagles are only 3-4 on the road and have beaten just three teams with a winning record this year.

But repeating as Super Bowl champs is no easy task.

As the NFC’s sixth seed, they’ll be on the road for the duration of the playoffs. They’ve also been on the road for three of the past four weeks meaning they very well could run out of gas soon.

The Eagles are only 3-4 on the road and have beaten just three teams with a winning record this year.

Bet On The League’s Hottest Team At Long Odds

While the Eagles have only lost once in the past six weeks, over in the AFC the Indianapolis Colts have only lost once since Week 6.

After a 1-5 start, the Colts became just the third team since the merger to make the playoffs by going 9-1 in their next ten games.

The Colts are riding a four-game winning streak which included a 24-21 road win against the Texans. This week they’ll travel to Houston once again for the Wild Card round as 2.5 point dogs.

Indy’s seventh-ranked offense is also tied for eighth in net yards per play. Should they advance to face Kansas City, both teams will boast a potent offense, but Indy will hold a big advantage defensively. The Colts are ranked 11th in YPG on defense while KC are 31st.

I think repeating as champs will be too tough for the Eagles. At average odds of +2800, Indy looks a good bet to stay hot and make a deep run.

No matter which longshot bet you like, keep in mind you can often make a larger return in the playoffs by taking a moneyline rollover approach. That is betting a team to win on the moneyline each round and re-investing your winnings into them winning again the next game.

With lower seeds likely being priced as dogs throughout the playoffs, the resulting payout will likely be larger than a single futures bet. It also gives you the option to keep your winnings if your feelings on the team change during the playoffs.
