Taking the EAGLES here. At -1 with extra juice, you can just go ML. Not much of difference. Ok. We get the Eagles out of their bye-week in what for them is exactly what it says in the dictionary under 'Must Win'. This is it for Andy Reid. He needs his defense to respond to the coaching change. More importantly, he needs Michael Vick to not turn it over for what it seems like every other possession. Philly a miserable 3-10-1 ATS last 14 at home. This team needs to really find itself. Reid is unbeatable out of his bye week, 14-0 SU and 11-3 ATS last 14. Add in the post-season and Andy's teams with rest are 17-1 SU and 14-4 ATS. The time is now. Falcons come in undefeated. I did have ATL winning the South. But I don't think they go undefeated. This is a dome team playing outside. I am doing this writing on Wednesday, and the weather might call for rain. Now, I don't take into account weather for my games, except for maybe windy conditions for totals. But either way, a dome team does not like the elements. The Eagles also boast who I think is the one of the best, if not the top RB in the league with McCoy. This is also a revenge spot for Philly. Last year, we backed ATL at home. Philly had a 10pt lead before Vick got hurt and Kafka came in. As long as Vick holds onto the ball and the Eagles stop turning it over, this should be a winner for us. The Philly D needed a kick in the ass and I think they will be energized here. Time for the Iggles to make a statement, and it starts with hanging the Falcons their first loss. 10* PHILADELPHIA EAGLES
