Preseason hype can sometimes come back to haunt a team, and that was certainly the case with the 2011 Philadelphia Eagles. Not only did the self-dubbed Dream Team fail to win the NFC East, it did not even qualify for the playoffs after producing a disappointing 8-8 record. Despite last season’s mediocre finish, the latest Philadelphia Eagles 2012 NFL Predictions are projecting big things for Michael Vick and company this fall. The Eagles are +125 favorite to win the division ($100 to win $125), a third pick to win the NFC Championship (+400 odds), and, based upon the Sportsbook.ag’s Super Bowl Odds, among the favorites (+800 odds) to win the Lombardi Trophy in 2013.
The Eagles, who were eighth points per game and 10th in points per game allowed last season, ended their 2011 campaign on a four game win streak. They waited just a hair too late to become the team everyone thought they would be back in September. Philadelphia’s strong finish served as testament to its tremendous potential, though, and only reinforced the favorable opinion most had of the club.
Count Cantor Gaming and Sportsbook.ag among those still enamored with Andy Reid’s crew. The former, a Vegas based book, has the Eagles favored in 13 of the 15 Philadelphia games for which it has issued 2012 NFL point spreads while the latter, an offshore odds maker, has the team favored at -120 odds to win Over 10.5 games.
