NFL Preseason - Day 2

We're probably not going to have a preseason (don't say "exhibition"!) pick every day, but we've been looking at this one for several days:

E-A-G-L-E-S +1 -108 (Matchbook), 1.08 units to win 1 unit

Word from Coach Reid is that the starters will play the first quarter & a half, the 2nd stringers will play a quarter & a half, and then the 3rd stringers (presumably led by Kevin Kolb) will play the 4th quarter. On the flip side, the Steelers' plan is to let the veterans play "a series or two" and then use the rest of the game to look at the new kids. Advantage Eagles. Plus, of course, the wagerline number has been higher than 60% on the Steelers for days (no matter what the line was).
