Eagles open 2018 NFL season as Week 1 favorites (not underdogs)

According to early Week 1 odds from Westgate LV Superbook, the Eagles are actually favored by 3.5 points against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 1.

Now, it’s hardly surprising to see the reigning Super Bowl champions favored at home in the NFL’s opening kickoff game. But it wasn’t too long ago when we were constantly reminded how the Eagles were the first ever No. 1 seed to be underdogs to a No. 6 seed when the Falcons were favored by 2.5 points in the Divisional Round of the 2018 NFL Playoffs.
