New England Patriots over Philadelphia Eagles Super Bowl 52: This line opened at 6.0 and for the first week the money has come in on Phil moving the line to where it is now. That provides us the buy signal and value on NE. I am expecting as the 2nd week moves along the money will come in on NE. Part of the early money on Phil is the Phil superior defense. However NE has the #1 rated pass offense Phil 16th in pass defense. Secondly everyone saw the dominant win Phil posted against a very good Minn defense adding how well Foles played as well. All these issues have an impact on this line. Experience is big in a game of this magnitude. We still have a huge adv at QB and coaching. Give Bellichek 2 weeks to prepare and that is deadly. I also fully expect Gronk will be cleared to play. When this happens the line will go up another reason to buy now. Phil will get some stops on defense but their offense specifically Foles will not be able to keep pace throw in the odd mistake and NE will eventually pull away. I have priced this game at 6.0 giving us excellent value.
