NFC Championship Betting Line and Trends
The Philadelphia Eagles (14-3) have never lost in the playoffs as home underdogs, going 4-0 straight up following a 15-10 win over the Atlanta Falcons in the Divisional Round last week.
However, the top-seeded Eagles will have an even bigger challenge in Sunday’s NFC Championship Game as consensus three-point home underdogs against the second-seeded Minnesota Vikings (14-3) at sportsbooks monitored by OddsShark.com.
Despite being seeded lower, the Vikings are definitely perceived as the better team, with most of the success of the Eagles this season attributed to MVP candidate Carson Wentz, who is out with a torn ACL suffered in Week 14 versus the Los Angeles Rams.
