Bet on the Eagles First Loss of the Season 2022
The Philadelphia Eagles could suffer their first loss of the 2022 if the overlay in this line is any indication.
We get a number of 0.74 in favor of Philadelphia following a review of the all-important Sagarin power ratings. This is around a 4 to 4.5 overlay with the line around 5.
Ahead of last week, overlays of 3 or greater have seen the underdog go 6-1 in key games that we have analyzed. Gambling911.com has not reviewed games that only stay within a PICK'EM and 2.
Furthermore, Dallas is now 4-1 Straight Up and will face an undefeated Eagles team that is 3-2 Against The Spread.
The Cowboys are 7-3 in the last ten games of this series and have won the last three outright.
BetOnline released odds on whenr the undefeated Eagles will first lose this season. They, too, anticipate a loss in Week 6 with a payout of $15 on every $10 bet. Interesting, considering the Cowboys are a +4.5 to +5.5 underdog.

Cooper Rush has filled in nicely for the injured Dak Prescott. He's won four straight games. Prescott is expected to return soon, perhaps by Week 7.
It's not all Rush when it comes to the Cowboys solid start. The Dallas defense has been playing its best in years.
“We’re for real,” reigning NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year Micah Parsons said. “We’re going to keep proving this every week. One thing I’ve learned about us is that we’re tougher and we’re better than we thought we were. That says a lot.”
The only other time Dallas gave up five or fewer touchdowns in the first five games was 1972.
“They’ve been doing this for quite some time,” coach Mike McCarthy said. “Just tremendous confidence and communication. The young guys are growing up, the older guys are a year better.”
The Eagles may be undefeated but they are 3-2 Against The Spread. Jalen Hurts admits these Eagles are far from perfect.
“I personally hate hearing 5-0. I don’t like to hear it,” Hurts said. “Because nobody wanted to mention the record when we were 2-5 (last season). Nobody wanted to talk about that. So, I don’t want to hear it now. I don’t want to hear it now. Can we come in here and control the things we can, attack every day and just grow and climb. That’s what matters. The process. Not anything else.”
