The Eagles were a surprise playoff team last year with rookie head coach Nick Siriani and second-year quarterback Jalen Hurts. Hurts and the Eagles had one of the league's best rushing attacks which led them to a Wild Card appearance. They bowed out to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the first round but now, heading into 2022 they look a little different.
They have a revamped Wide Receiver room after acquiring AJ Brown via trade and they finally added some linebacker depth with Nakobe Dean in the NFL Draft. When looking at the NFC East odds, they may not be the favorite but they are certainly the favorite of the betting public.
2022 NFC East Odds
Team | Odds | Implied Chance |
|---|---|---|
Cowboys | +125 | 44.44% |
Eagles | +165 | 37.74% |
Commanders | +550 | 15.38% |
Giants | +800 | 11.11% |
Eagles NFC East Odds: +165 (Bet $100 to win $165)
The Eagles are +165 right now to win the NFC East, trailing the Dallas Cowboys but what the Eagles have over the Cowboys is more of the money, a lot of it. 64% of the handle is on the Eagles to win the division with the Cowboys receiving just 39%.
It goes beyond just the division though. At -175 to make the playoffs, the Eagles have the most money on them with 12.9% of the handle. There are a lot of Jalen Hurts year three and AJ Brown believers in 2022.
Only two teams in the NFC have received more money on them to win the conference. Nick Sirriani's bunch is with the best of them in the NFC in terms of where the money is going. We will have to wait a while to see if the betting public was right but this revamped team has been a popular one, that's for sure.
According to Sharp Football Analysis, the Eagles have the second easiest schedule in 2022. Will they be able to take advantage?
