Sound the alarm! Carson Wentz is back! Wentz has been given the green light, and the Eagles are wasting no time in getting him back on the field. Nick Foles has obviously done an admirable job in the interim, you know, winning a Super Bowl and all, but Wentz is their franchise guy.

Foles isn’t off to the hottest start this year, throwing for just 451 yards, one touchdown and one interception while sporting a 78.9 passer rating in the Eagles’ 1-1 start to the season.

Last week, the Westgate Las Vegas SuperBook listed the Eagles at -7 on its lookahead line with the expectation being that Foles would still be under center.

As recently as Sunday, one sportsbook posted early lines of Philly -5.5 and -6 before they were taken off the board.

And just before 2 p.m. ET Monday, the Eagles opened at -6.5, with Pinnacle following suit shortly afterward.

This may come as a surprise, but before the season began, CG Technology’s Lead Data Analyst, William Bernanke, stated that there was only a negligible difference between Wentz and Foles in terms of value to the spread.

Clearly, other oddsmakers are in the same boat as Bernanke, but the betting market may feel otherwise.

Wentz was on his way to an MVP season before tearing his ACL late last year. Foles still led the Eagles to a Super Bowl victory, but if you asked 100 people which quarterback they would prefer to have on their team, all 100 would say Wentz.

With this in mind, bettors will likely hop on the Eagles in droves. I certainly wouldn’t be surprised to see the line hit the key number of -7 at some point this week across the offshore market.
