Tonight is a huge night in the Jalen Hurts story. This game basically boils down to how well he plays. Lane is battling through an injury and isn't 100%, and Maddox is out with the toe. But, otherwise, we are almost full strength.
Fair or not (injury or not), the narrative on Hurts is going to be "can't get it done in the playoffs" or "he's a poor man's Lamar" if the Eagles lose. I have a lot of faith that he has the personality to handle the big stage and not wilt under the lights. The only real concern is how much the shoulder affects his play.
Was watching some talking head with a gambling eggspurt on his show. Guy said a lot of "public money" was coming in on the Giants. They showed out versus the Vikings; Daniel jones is now Josh Allen Part Deux; Saquon is healthy; people are finally noticing how strong the interior Dline for NYG is; Eagles limped into post-season, licking their wounds.
So, all this money is pouring in on NYG to cover or win, but the line never moved. He says a lot of "sharp money" was coming in on the Eagles. That makes me really hopeful that Jalen's shoulder is right. If he is at 80%, I am extremely confident the Eagles win, and cover.
Fly, Eagles, Fly!
