NFL Week Four - Philadelphia Eagles vs. Chicago Bears

Bookmark and Share by D.S. Williamson

The NFL betting fans. Both the Eagles and Bears appear much improved from last season when neither team made the playoffs. The Eagles in particular look like one of the better teams in the NFL this year.

They started out the season by wholloping the Pittsburgh Steelers to six points in another cover game against the online betting spread.

The Chicago Bears have been pretty good this season. They beat the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Bears will be looking to bounce back but it won’t be easy.

Here are the BetUS online sportsbook betting odds for this game.

Kick-off: 9/28/2008 8:15 pm est.

Philadelphia Eagles - 3 - 115 O 40 ½ - 110

Chicago Bears + 3 - 105 U 40 ½ - 110

Here are a few NFL wagering trends that might help us find a good online bet in this game.

The Philadelphia Eagles are 5 and 1 against the spread in their last 6 games overall.

The Road team is 5 and 1 against the spread in the last 6 meetings between these two teams.

The Chicago Bears are 4 and 10 against the spread in their last 14 games at home.

The Chicago Bears are 4-1-1 against the spread in their last 6 games overall.

To me this is one of the easier online wagers this weekend. I just don’t see how the Chicago Bears stay close to a team like the Philadelphia Eagles. The Eagles may be without starting running back Bryan Westbrook but that shouldn’t matter.

When it comes down to it, the Eagles are much better team than the Bears. They are better on offense and defense. They have a better coaching staff. They know how to win games.

The Eagles will find a way to get some separation, like they did in their game versus the Steelers, in the third quarter of this game. Philadelphia won’t lose this game. They should win going away.

The BetUS online wagering bet that I’m going to make is going to be on the Philadelphia Eagles to beat the Chicago Bears by more than three points. I don’t mind laying the three points against the BetUS online betting spread in this game.

That’s how much faith I have in the Philadelphia Eagles.
