The Rx.com Mod Team has created this Service Play sub-forum in order to supply an area for Rx Service Play Posters to expand upon their posting topics without creating a logjam in the main forum where the three principle threads are maintained..

Posters can track services here if they care to but we will need any trackers to do so in an accurate and civil manner. We did not create this area for posters to ridicule or bash any services..

You can also discuss who is hot and who is not. The general state of the pay for plays industry and any other subject or topic related to service plays.

You can also create individual threads about specific services and discuss them freely but civilly. Again bashing and abusive treatment of any services will not be tolerated.

Please remember, this forum is not here for regular posters who cap their own games to post ther daily plays. Please use our individual sport forums to post your plays. Professional cappers (those that sell plays) must remain in the Site Promotion Forum.

The Rx.com will not tolerate posters that post false records of any services they track. Please be truthful if you decide to track a particular service.

Lastly The Rx Moderators are appealing to you our everyday posters to report any promotional threads or posts that are made by services or individual touts. No links or contact information to an individual service will be allowed. Just the name of the service. Please report any threads or posts that are promotional attempts by services and touts to use this forum to promote themselves..

Posters can easily report a promotional post by using the triangular Report-a-Post Icon at the bottom left of all post boxes. The poster name of any poster who reports a post that is out of line will be kept strictly confidential.

I will leave this thread open for a month to take questions and do my best to answer them. I will check in daily but am off on Wednesday and Thursday.

I hope this additional Service Play Forum will satisfy those posters that would like to widen the scope of topics relating to service plays and the industry in general to have their own threads. Mods will be liberal as possible regarding topics but this forum was specifically created to allow you more freedom to express your ideas regarding service plays and related subject matter. No off topic threads will be allowed.

Thank you, wilheim

Texans at Eagles: What bettors need to know

Houston Texans at Philadelphia Eagles (-9, 50.5)

David Payne writes for Covers Expert Ben Burns.

Philadelphia has struggled recently to live up to expectations after a straight-up loss. The Eagles are just 1-4 against the spread after a defeat.
They’ll try to buck that trend Thursday night, when the up-and-down Houston Texans visit Lincoln Financial Field.

Philadelphia (7-4, 7-4 ATS) saw its three-game win streak snapped in a 31-26 loss at Chicago Sunday. Michael Vick passed for 333 yards with two touchdowns, but also threw a costly interception in the end zone, fumbled four times and was sacked four times. It was the first loss of the season for the Eagles in a game that Vick started and finished.

The Texans (5-6, 5-6 ATS) are coming off a 20-0 pummeling of the fading Tennessee Titans. The win snapped a four-game slide for Houston and featured a brawl between Texans’ star receiver Andre Johnson and Titans’ corner Cortland Finnegan. Surprisingly, neither player was suspended, meaning Johnson will be on the field Thursday against a banged-up Eagle secondary that was lit up by Jay Cutler Sunday.

Philadelphia’s top corner Asante Samuel, the NFL’s interception leader, missed the Bears game with a knee sprain and is questionable to play Thursday. If Samuel can’t go, that leaves corners Dimitri Patterson, Joselio Hanson and rookie Trevard Lindley to matchup with Johnson. Needless to say, advantage Texans.

Still, the Eagles are unquestionably the stronger team. The 9-point spread is the most they’ve been favored by all season. It’s also the biggest underdog situation the Texans have faced this year.

THE LINE

The Eagles opened as 8-point favorites, but were giving as many as 9 at most outlets as of Wednesday afternoon.

The Texans are 3-2 ATS on the road, covering against the Jets, Raiders and Redskins and failing to cover in a pair of AFC South games at Indianapolis and Jacksonville.

The Eagles have a habit of playing their best football in early December. They are 11-2 ATS in Week 13 and 4-1 ATS in their five December games.

THE TOTAL

It opened at 50.5 and had seen very little movement as of Wednesday.

Statistically, that number is spot on. The Eagles are averaging 28.2 and allowing 23.4 points per game. The Texans are scoring 24 and surrendering 26.1 point per game.

After getting soaked by rain early in the week, clear skies with temperatures in the 30s and light winds are forecast for Thursday night.

The Over has hit in six of the last seven Eagles games. The Over is also 10-2 in the Eagles’ last 12 games following a straight-up loss.

The Over is 20-6 in the Texans’ last 26 games against at a team with a winning record.

The teams combined for 34 points in their last meeting, a 24-10 Eagles’ win in 2005.

INJURIES

Samuel practiced this week, but in a limited capacity. The short week certainly doesn’t help his cause. Bettors will want to pay close attention to his status.
In addition to Samuel, wide receiver Riley Cooper is questionable. The No. 4 receiver missed practice Monday and Tuesday.

Defensive end Juqua Parker has been ruled out. Rookie Brandon Graham will make his second straight start for the Eagles.

Running back LeSean McCoy (shoulder) was a full participant in practice and will play.

For the Texans, tight end Own Daniels missed practice on Monday and Tuesday and is questionable. Defensive end Mario Williams, linebacker Brian Cushing and receiver Kevin Walter were limited in practice but are expected to play.

Ice picks: Thursday's best NHL bets

Florida Panthers at Los Angeles Kings

Quick, has anyone seen the Los Angeles Kings? Because there is no way that this is the same team that was leading the Western Conference two weeks ago.

The Kings have scored a mere 63 goals while allowing a microscopic 57. Earlier this season, those numbers were resulting in close wins. Now, late breakdowns and mental lapses are leading to close losses. Add in swirling trade rumors for a young, struggling side, and a fast rebound to early-season success is harder than it sounds.

“No one is questioning our scoring when we’re winning seven straight,” he said. “Now we’ve lost seven of eight, or six of eight, or whatever it is, people start questioning things. The season is ups and downs and it’s just a matter of staying at an even keel.”

Justin Williams, Jarret Stoll and Ryan Smyth have combined to score only one goal the past six games after notching 23 in the first 17.

Meantime, Florida is a virtual mirror of the Kings, conceding an equally stingy 57 goals, but also scoring just 57 themselves.

The Kings are at home and due for a win. But it won’t be by much.

Pick: Under

San Jose Sharks at Ottawa Senators (-115, 5.5)

LeBron James returning to Cleveland? Please. The return of Danny Heatley to Ottawa is where the real bad blood will be seen on Thursday night.

Heatley is returning to Ottawa for the first time since being traded to San Jose at the end of the 2008-2009 season. What made Senators fans the most upset was the way that the winger appeared to turn his back on the franchise only one year into a huge, six-year, $45 million contract extension.

“I'm sure it's not going to be pleasant (for) anyone that goes back to a situation like he's coming back to,” said forward Jason Spezza, who has born the brunt of fan’s frustration as the Senators were bounced in the first round last year. “But maybe we can get a jolt from the crowd.”

It would take more than just a jolt to wake up a team that has lost six of eight. The Senators also have notched a mere 13 goals over that span.
Don’t expect Hate Week to change much in Ottawa.

Pick: Under

College funds: Thursday's best NCAAB bets


St. Peter’s Peacocks at Loyola (Md.) Greyhounds (-5)

The young Greyhounds are doing something they haven’t been able to do in recent seasons – take it one game at a time.

A team littered with underclassman appears to have found a balance under mercurial coach Jimmy Patsos. The Hounds have decent wins over UMBC, Morgan State and Dartmouth and close losses to Vermont and Drexel by three points each. Sophomores Robert Olson (8.2 ppg) and Erik Etherly (9.8 ppg) are leading the team’s offense while senior guard Brian Rudolph (7 ppg, 3 apg) could start for most teams in the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference.

The Peacocks have won three of the past four against their conference rival, but the team’s slow-down, defense-heavy style won’t be a surprise to a team that is playing with more poise than last year. St. Peter’s employs a physical, 2-3 zone that Loyola will be ready to attack.

The Greyhounds are shooting better than 40 percent from the floor and have a plus-2.2 rebound margin. They will have no problem getting physical or pushed off of their game.

It won’t be pretty to watch, but it will be beautiful to cash.

Pick: Loyola

Robert Morris Colonials at LIU Brooklyn Blackbirds

The Colonials don’t resemble a team that can defend a Northeast Conference crown for a third straight season. In fact, the team touting only one senior hasn’t been able to win on the road yet this year.

Robert Morris has played a tough schedule, but most recently fell behind by 22 points at Cleveland State before dropping a 59-53 decision. The problem for the Colonials is that they can’t shoot. At all. The team is last in the NEC in free-throw percentage (60.5 pct), field goal percentage (35.1) and eighth in three-point shooting (28.7).

"We just couldn't make a shot because we didn't do a very good job executing our offense," Robert Morris coach Andrew Toole said of a recent loss. "Any time you look at the assist-to-turnover ratio, and yours is positive and theirs is close to one to one, you're going to like your chances.

"I just thought we took some quick shots at times. I didn't think we executed well enough in order to change sides of the floor and make them work defensively."

Meantime, LIU is tops in the NEC in points (82.6), scoring margin (plus-13.4), field goal percentage (45.8) and second in three-point percentage (40).

Pick: LIU

Pick 'n' roll: Thursday's best NBA bets

Miami Heat at Cleveland Cavaliers (+4.5, 192)

ESPN radio host Colin Cowherd and NBA analyst and PTI host Michael Wilbon both think Cleveland is going to blow Miami out of the gym. We think it’s pretty crazy that two guys who love to pat the league’s stars on the back are predicting a Miami massacre Thursday night in LeBron James’ first game back in Cleveland since leaving the franchise that drafted him in 2003.

The Heat usually take care of business against the league’s little sisters. They’ve beaten the Wizards, 76ers, Nets, Timberwolves and Suns all by double digits. But then again, Miami is just 2-5 on the road and this will be the most hostile environment it’ll play in all season.

“I'm ready for whatever response I'm going to get,” James told the Miami Herald earlier this week. “It's going to be very emotionally draining for myself. Being in a different uniform, it's going to be kind of weird.”

The Cavs aren’t as bad as everyone thought they’d be without King James. Bryon Scott has the star-less club playing hard and winning games they shouldn’t.
Miami will be playing on the second night of a back to back, and its bench is already razor thin.

Pick: Cleveland

Phoenix Suns at Golden State Warriors (-2.5, 229.5)

Wins have been hard to come by for the Warriors. The club is just 1-6 (2-5 ATS) over its last seven games and got absolutely worked over by the Spurs Tuesday night.

Golden State’s problem is the same it’s been for years: no height and a bench short on talent. It’s never a good sign if Vladimir Radmanovic is a major part of your rotation.

Phoenix has similar flaws on its team but the Suns will present the Warriors with some matchup problems. Look for the power forward tandem of Hedo Turkuglu and Hakim Warrick to combine for big numbers and give the Warriors fits at the offensive end.

Pick: Phoenix

Bettors' best friend (BBF): Thursday's wagering tips

Who’s hot

NHL: Atlanta Thrashers have seen the over go 8-1 in their past nine overall.

NHL: Tampa Bay Lighting are 6-2 in their past eight overall.

NCAAB: Baylor Bears have seen the over hit in 17 of their past 25 games overall.

Who’s not

NBA: Miami Heat are 8-20 ATS in their past 28 overall.

NBA: Golden State Warriors are 2-7-1 ATS in their past 10 overall.

NHL: New Jersey Devils are 2-7 in their past nine against the Eastern Conference.

NHL: Edmonton Oilers are 12-41 in their past 53 road games.

NCAAB: UCLA Bruins are 3-7 ATS in their past 10 overall.

Key stat

3- Times this season that Pacers forward Danny Granger has topped the 30-point mark on the road. The team is 3-0 in those games this season, including victories against the Lakers (37 points), Cleveland (34) and Charlotte (33). Granger is averaging 25 points per game on the road this season, the third-best mark in the league, and is a big reason the Pacers are an outstanding 5-2 in opposing gyms.

Injury that shouldn’t be overlooked

New Jersey Nets point guard Devin Harris will miss at least two games with a strained left knee. Harris was hurt in Tuesday's game against the New York Knicks with an injured left knee. He sat out Wednesday's game against Oklahoma City and will also Friday's game at Charlotte before he is re-evaluated. Harris, who is averaging 17.7 points and 6.6 assists, said he was hoping it was only a sprain, but added that the worst-case scenario is a torn meniscus.

Game of the day

Miami Heat at Cleveland Cavaliers (+4.5, 192)

Notable quotable

"The league has their favorites. One being in Indy [Manning] and one being with that team up north [Brady]. Besides those two, everybody is fair game. Like I always said, [the Bengals'] Carson Palmer got his knee hurt in 2005, but there was no rule made. Then Tom Brady got hit in the knee and all of a sudden there is rule and possible suspensions, excessive fines. It's just getting ridiculous." – Ravens linebacker Terrell Suggs

Notes and tips

Eagles receiver DeSean Jackson can be all but guaranteed to give 100 percent effort on Thursday against a porous Texans defense. Jackson has been getting in fights with coaches and teammates for refusing to field practice punts and short arming passes to avoid contact with defenders. But against a terrible Texans secondary, he won’t be focused on an extension – just having a huge statistical day to back up the huge numbers he wants to be paid.

Keep an eye on the active roster for the Houston Rockets. Even though the team is just 5-12, it could welcome back two of its top players in the next several days. Center Yao Ming is hoping to return on Dec. 7 and guard Aaron Brooks is hoping to return a few days later on Dec. 10. The duo have both missed times with left ankle injuries and played together in only three games this season. Bring on the cavalry.

Be careful what you read into Virginia’s early-season win over Minnesota. The streaking Gophers were without several key players and the Cavaliers suffered a huge blow in the victory: forward Will Sherill suffered a broken fibula and no timetable is set for his return. The senior is averaging just 6.3 points and 3.5 rebounds, but was one of the top glue guys on the Cavaliers and the team’s captain. He will be difficult to replace.

What bettors need to know: Arizona State at Arizona

Arizona State at Arizona (-5.5, 55)

QB SHUFFLE

When a concussion sidelined Arizona State quarterback Steven Threet early in last week’s game, things didn’t look good for the Sun Devils.

Then, backup Brook Osweiler took the field.

Osweiler and the Sun Devils travel to Arizona to renew their rivalry Thursday night. Osweiler will look to build on his remarkable relief appearance against UCLA last week.

About the only one who wasn’t shocked with Osweiler’s performance on Friday was the sophomore quarterback himself. He threw for 380 yards and four touchdowns, hitting 27 of 36 attempts as Arizona State stomped UCLA 55-34 at Tempe, Ariz.

While Threet, who suffered a minor concussion, may be cleared to play during the week, he is expected to serve as the backup.

Osweiler is a specimen. At 6-8, 242 pounds, Osweiler was one of the nation’s top recruits coming out of high school at Montana. He also ran the ball six times for 35 yards and a 15-yard touchdown. Threet had been solid during the season passing for 2,545 yards with 18 touchdowns against 16 interceptions.

Osweiler was expected to get the call before the season started but Threet won the job in the preseason. Last year Osweiler started a game against Oregon but had to leave after throwing just 14 passes with a shoulder injury.

BOWL A NO-GO?

Despite Arizona State’s win last week, the Sun Devils were eliminated from the bowl picture. While the Pac-10 has six slots in bowl games reserved heading into the final weekend, only three teams have qualified.

Even though Arizona State (5-6, 3-5) could get to six wins with a victory over Arizona on Saturday, it has two wins against FCS schools. The Sun Devils could have still received a bowl berth with a win if it received a waiver from the NCAA but when Georgia knocked off Georgia Tech on Saturday night the Bulldogs became the 70th team to become bowl eligible.

That left Arizona State out of the picture. Although the Arizona Republic is reporting ASU has submitted a request to the NCAA Legislative Relief committee to try to gain postseason eligibility. The Pac-10, of course, is backing the Sun Devils’ request.

The Wildcats are looking at a possible Alamo Bowl or Holiday Bowl berth against a Big 12 team in the postseason. They’re also looking to snap a three-game losing skid.

BAD AGAINST THE BEST

The Wildcats have faced the iron of the Pac-10 recently and lost games at Oregon and Stanford and were upset at home by USC.

Arizona couldn’t keep up with the top-ranked Ducks in last week’s 48-29 setback. Arizona led throughout much of the first half but when Oregon got its high-powered offense rolling the game was over. Nick Foles threw for 448 yards in the loss and three touchdowns, but the Wildcats got little from its running game which totaled just 58 yards.

"We had 500 yards of total offense," Arizona tailback Nic Grigsby said, "but we can't play against the refs and them, too."

After losing three straight in the series, Arizona has won the past two games, including a 31-10 win at home two years ago.

Arizona is ranked 32nd in the nation in scoring defense, but that number has dropped steadily since entering the most difficult part of its schedule. Foles has the Wildcats’ passing game ranked ninth in the nation.

TRENDS

The under is 15-5 in Arizona State’s last 20 road games and Arizona is 15-7 ATS in its last 22 home games.

The Sun Devils are 4-0-1 ATS in their last five games against winning teams while the Wildcats are 8-17 ATS in their last 25 home games vs. a team with a losing road record.

Stan has Turned-Up the Heat on the Gridiron with his RED~HOT 60-20-4 (75.0%) ATS Run, along with his impressive 132-56-2 (70.2%) mark for the season, in MLB action! But most Importantly, Yours Truly has delivered the cash in Thirty-Nine of the last Forty-Two, and in Seventy-Three of the last Seventy-Seven Weeks, Dating back to Last Season!

Jump Starting the Week Monday - Stan ‘The Man Continued to 'Sizzle' on the Hardwood Cashing Once Again with his *4-Star selection on Denver/Golden State Under 220.5. Right here on these pages, Stan told us all - "Don't even think about making a move on tonight’s NBA card until you learned of a ‘Dynamite Super Situation’ inside one game, and that it was supported by an Amazing Winning Angle since 1996."

--PLAY UNDER - Home teams where the total is greater than or equal to 210 - after being beaten by the spread by 30 or more points total in their last five games, with a winning percentage of between 45-55% on the season. 28-5 since 1996, (84.8%, +22.5 units).

--Result: Carmelo Anthony rose to the occasion with 39 points, nine rebounds and five assists, as Denver downed Golden State, 106-89, at ORACLE Arena. Al Harrington added 19 points and eight rebounds off the bench, while Arron Afflalo donated 15 points and nine rebounds and Ty Lawson contributed 14 points for Denver, which has won three of four overall.

Tuesday as Promised - 'The Man Delivered with his *4-Star ‘Fan Appreciation Key Play’ (New York/Charlotte Over 205.5) that was supported by this powerful Super Situational System: PLAY OVER - Home teams where the total is 200 to 209.5 - after beating the spread by 24 or more points total in their last three games, a marginal losing team (40% to 49%) playing a losing team. 29-6 since 1996, (82.8%, +22.4 units).

--Result: Toney Douglas poured in 22 points off the bench and all five starters scored in double figures as New York held off Charlotte, 110-107, at Madison Square Garden in the first of a home-and-home set. Amare Stoudemire scored 17 points while Raymond Felton supplied 16 points and nine assists against his former team for the Knicks, who have won a season-best four in a row following a six-game slide. Extending 'The Man's record on the hardwood to 17-3, (85.0%) with his last nineteen top rated selections!

After taking a well deserved night off Wednesday - Stan 'The Man Continued his ‘INCREDIBLE’ Winning Streak on the Gridiron, Nailing his Hugh *5-Star ‘Late Information Selection’ with the Under (the posted total of 44) in the Cincinnati/NY Jets match-up at the New Meadowlands Stadium, on the NFL Network Thursday night.

--Result: Brad Smith scored on a 53-yard run and an 89-yard kickoff return, providing the spark for the New York Jets in their 26-10 victory over the Cincinnati Bengals. Smith also caught a pass for 23 yards for the Jets who have won four in a row and kept pace with New England for first place in the AFC East. Improving Stan's NFL mark to 22-8-2, (73.3%) on the 2010 season.

Stan's RED~HOT run in NCAA College Football just keeps getting Hotter! Fresh off his ‘SPECTACULAR’ 8-1 roll in side Selections (88.8%) right here in last Saturday's (11/20) Stat/Systems Report - “The Man cashed yet another CFB Huge Top *5-Star Release on Friday's card, with Toledo minus the four points at the Glass Bowl.

--Result: Terrance Owens threw for 304 yards and three touchdowns as the Toledo Rockets posted a solid 42-31 win over the Central Michigan Chippewas in a Mid-American Conference bout. Owens completed 24-of-32 passes for the Rockets as they won their second straight and the fifth in the last six outings.

Stan ‘The Man didn't Stop There - As he came thru in Fine Fashion with his *5-Star - 'AWESOME ANGLE OF THE DAY' - (Nevada +14.5), which told us to: PLAY ON - Any college conference home dog that was favored in each of their last seven games versus a .700 or greater opponent off a win of 17 > points. ATS W-L Record Since 1980: 15-2-1 (88.2%).

--Result: The No. 19 Nevada Wolf Pack rallied from a 17-point halftime deficit, survived a missed chip shot from Kyle Brotzman at the end of regulation and miraculously pulled off the biggest win in program history, 34-31, on Anthony Martinez's 34-yard field goal in overtime.

Kicking off the afternoon Saturday, Stan Delivered his 11th Consecutive Winning Week in NCAA College Football, going 6-1-1, (85.7%) on the week! Getting things started right here in our Stat/Systems Report, Stan cashed with his 100% 'CFB SUPER SYSTEM OF THE WEEK' with South Florida (plus the 12.5-points) versus Miami-Florida.

Stan wrote - One of my favorite betting theories involves backing Big East teams in non-conference play, where they are almost always looking to stamp their BCS credentials. This is especially true during the second-half of the season when they are out to impress the bowl scouts. Here is what we want to do: PLAY ON - Any Big East college football team on the non-conference road from Game Six out.

These ‘Beasts’ respond with aplomb, going 60-31-2 ATS since the inception of the league in this role. Send them out with a decent defense, one that allows 24.5 or less points per game and they become a 45-17-1 ATS proposition. These same defensively staunch ‘Beasts’ really take it out on the road against .700 or less non-conference opposition, going 29-8 ATS (78.3%), including 16-3 ATS when they are off a win of more than three points.

SUBSET: If our PLAY ON' team is off a win of more than three points and allows 24.5 or less ppg and is facing a .700 or less non-conference opponent that was not a double-digit favorite and did not cover the spread by six or more points in its last game. ATS W-L Record Since 1998: 14-0.

FYI: "There’s a chance Miami QB Jacory Harris will be healed enough from recent injuries to make a return but the Hurricanes’ feeble 1-7 ATS record in Last Home Games doesn’t exactly inspire confidence!"

--Result: Demetris Murray's one-yard touchdown run in overtime lifted the South Florida Bulls over the Miami-Florida Hurricanes, 23-20, in a non-conference clash. Moise Plancher ran for 103 yards for South Florida which got two touchdown runs from Murray to move to 9-0 all-time in overtime games.

Other Winning Tickets on Saturday's Card Included: 5* SAN DIEGO ST -24 - (86.5%)... 5* WISCONSIN -23 - (86.5%)... 5* HAWAII/NEW MEXICO ST OVER 29 (1rst Half) - (91.2%)... Extending “The Man’s 2010 CFB record to 38-12-2, 76.0%!

*** THURSDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL ***

HOUSTON @ PHILADELPHIA
Kickoff: Thursday, 8:20 p.m. EDT Line: -8, O/U 51
------------------------------------------------------
The Houston Texans are showing they're still willing to fight, both literally and figuratively, for a chance at an elusive first-ever playoff berth in franchise history. The AFC South contenders continue that quest with Thursday's visit to Lincoln Financial Field, where a Philadelphia Eagles team attempting to cement its own postseason hopes lies in wait for a Week 13 interconference bout between two high-powered opponents.

The Texans had just about fallen out of contention in the division race after losing four straight games to begin November, but bounced back with a highly- charged effort to take down the spiraling Tennessee Titans last Sunday at Reliant Stadium. The resounding 20-0 victory, coupled with Week 12 defeats by AFC South front-runners Jacksonville and Indianapolis moved Houston within a single game of the Jaguars and Colts for the top spot.

Houston took advantage of a depleted Tennessee offense directed by over-his- head rookie quarterback Rusty Smith to record its first shutout since 2004, but the defense's surprisingly sturdy effort was overshadowed by a nasty fourth-quarter brawl between Texans star wide receiver Andre Johnson and Titans cornerback Cortland Finnegan that saw both players tossed from the contest. Neither Johnson nor Finnegan were suspended for the ugly incident, with each receiving $25,000 fines from the NFL office.

The verdict brought a sigh of relief to the Texans, who'll have one of their best weapons on the field for a pivotal game against the NFC East co-leading Eagles. Lost in the Johnson/Finnegan scuffle was the performance of a maligned Houston defense that entered last week's tilt ranked 31st in the league in yards allowed and dead last against the pass. The unit limited the punchless Titans to a paltry 162 total yards and nine first downs while bottling up All-Pro running back Chris Johnson, who mustered a career-low five rushing yards on seven attempts. Duplicating that display figures to be a tall task, however, against a dangerous Philadelphia contingent that's second in the NFL in both total offense and points scored.

The Eagles have put up 26 points or more in all six games in which revitalized quarterback Michael Vick has started and finished this season, while posting a 5-1 record in those outings. The lone blemish occurred this past Sunday, however, when Philadelphia was outdueled by surging Chicago in a 31-26 setback that ended the Eagles' three- game winning streak. The usually-potent offense was beset by a number of critical breakdowns in the Windy City, managing just one touchdown in five red-zone trips and Vick throwing a costly interception (his first of the season) near the goal line that led to a key touchdown for the Bears.

Philadelphia's defense also wasn't up to par, surrendering four scoring passes to Chicago signal-caller Jay Cutler and 117 rushing yards to running back Matt Forte on only 14 carries. The Eagles may be in for a tough time on that side of the ball again on Thursday, with the Texans bringing the NFL's leading ground-gainer in Arian Foster along with the league's seventh-rated offense in terms of total yardage. Sunday's loss placed Philadelphia back into a first-place tie with the New York Giants, a 24-20 victor over Jacksonville in Week 12, in the NFC East standings.

• SERIES HISTORY
----------------------
The Eagles won their only two all-time meetings with the Texans, downing Houston on the road in the 2006 regular season opener (24-10) and at home (35-17) during the 2002 regular season. Houston-based NFL teams are 0-4 in Philadelphia all-time, including a 0-3 mark there by the Oilers. Eagles head coach Andy Reid is 2-0 in his career against the Texans, while Houston's Gary Kubiak is 0-1 against both Reid and the Eagles as a head man.

• WHEN THE TEXANS HAVE THE BALL
----------------------------------------------
While Johnson's contributions and presence cannot be minimized, the main driving force behind a balanced Houston offense that's averaging 367.7 total yards per game has been Foster (1147 rushing yards, 48 receptions, 13 total TD), an overlooked MVP candidate who's accounted for nearly 40 percent of the team's output this season. The undrafted second-year pro is fresh off a monster day against the Titans in which he rushed for 143 yards on 30 carries and added a game-high 75 receiving yards on nine catches as one of the primary targets for steady quarterback Matt Schaub (2752 passing yards, 15 TD, 7 INT).

Johnson (65 receptions, 869 yards, 5 TD) had nine grabs as well prior his premature exit, and the four-time Pro Bowl honoree's ability to stretch the field and draw added attention from the defense helps open the field for complementary pieces such as wideout Kevin Walter (31 receptions, 4 TD) and tight end Joel Dreessen (22 receptions, 4 TD), who's emerged as a reliable fill-in for the injured Owen Daniels. Schaub enters Thursday's matchups on a three-game streak without a turnover, and the Philadelphia-area native has been intercepted just twice in five road tests this season.

The Eagles head into this week's clash with one big question mark in the secondary, with top-flight cornerback Asante Samuel's (23 tackles, 7 INT, 12 PD) status likely not to be determined until game time due to a sprained left knee that caused him to sit out against Chicago. Without the NFL's interception leader, Philadelphia was burned for 247 yards and four touchdowns by Cutler, and there's no other coverman on the roster you can deem capable of go going one-on-one with Johnson with much confidence.

End Juqua Parker (15 tackles, 5 sacks), the team's second-leading sacker, is also iffy with a hip flexor, though rookie replacement Brandon Graham (12 tackles, 3 sacks) took down Cutler once last week and the defense did come up with four sacks total on the day, including a pair from standout rush end Trent Cole (49 tackles, 9 sacks). The Eagles had been playing very well against the run up until last Sunday, with the midseason insertions of tackle Antonio Dixon (23 tackles, 2 sacks) and strongside linebacker Moise Fokou (28 tackles) into starting roles helping shore up an area that was a trouble spot early on. Philadelphia has yielded a scant 81.9 rushing yards per game over its past seven contests.

• WHEN THE EAGLES HAVE THE BALL
----------------------------------------------
Philadelphia's offense is among the most explosive in all of football, having produced a league-best 15 plays of 40 or more yards through the first 11 games, and boasts two premier home-run threats in flashy wide receiver DeSean Jackson (35 receptions, 678 yards, 5 TD) and running back LeSean McCoy (779 rushing yards, 59 receptions, 7 total TD). It's also been quite efficient, with Vick (1941 passing yards, 13 TD, 1 INT) having turned the ball over just twice thus far while completing a career-best 63.4 percent of his passes during his impressive comeback campaign.

The multi-faceted quarterback is still a major threat with his legs as well, topping all NFL signal-callers in both rushing yards (419) and touchdowns (5), and his scrambling skills are part of the reason why the Eagles have compiled the third-most yards on the ground (146.6 ypg) in 2010. McCoy's done his part as well, with the versatile sophomore averaging five yards per carry in addition to leading all running backs in receptions. The speedy Jackson serves as the big-play element to Reid's diverse pass attack, with underrated wideout Jeremy Maclin (51 receptions, 752 yards, 8 TD), sure-handed slotman Jason Avant (41 tackles, 1 TD) and McCoy utilized as Vick's main options underneath. Pass protection has been an issue at times, with the front line having allowed 32 sacks on the year.

The Eagles' deep corps of receivers will be working against a young and vulnerable Houston secondary that's been routinely toasted by enemy quarterbacks this season. The Texans have permitted a league-worst 25 touchdown passes and a troubling 286.2 yards per game via the air (31st overall), and last week's shutout marked the first time in 2010 the team gave up fewer than 24 points. On the positive side, second-year cornerback Glover Quin (59 tackles, 3 INT, 11 PD) set a club single-game record with three interceptions of the Titans' Smith in Week 12, while Pro Bowl end Mario Williams (26 tackles, 8.5 sacks) is an elite pass rusher who's registered three sacks over the past two weeks.

While the defense has been shoddy against the pass, Houston can be awfully tough to run on, as Tennessee found out by gaining an anemic 24 yards on the ground on 12 attempts last Sunday. Outside linebacker and 2009 NFL Defensive Rookie of the year Brian Cushing (47 tackles) and physical strong safety Bernard Pollard (85 tackles) spearhead a group that comes in ranked ninth in the league in rushing defense (100.2 ypg) and has allowed 3.9 yards per carry.

• PREGAME NOTES
-----------------------
Eagles fly home off a disappointing loss in the Windy City to host the Texans who are fresh off a surprising shutout win, just the second such whitewash victory in franchise history. Given the fact Houston lost straight up as a 9.5-point favorite in the following encounter the only other time they tossed a goose egg, we’re not about to do the two-step with them this week. Especially knowing they are just 1-6 ATS all-time in games after surrendering 7 or fewer points when facing an opponent off a loss.

Meanwhile, Andy has been dandy in scuffles off a SU favorite loss, going 12-3 ATS when taking on a sub .500 foe. "With the Eagles bruised and battered, and Gary Kubiak a ridiculous 0-9 ATS in confrontations against opponents that are off a SU and ATS road loss, it looks like a one-way mugging on the streets of Philadelphia tonight!"

*** ARIZONA ST @ ARIZONA (-6, O/U 54.5) ***
---------------------------------------------------------
The Territorial Cup is up for grabs, as the Arizona State Sun Devils and Arizona Wildcats have their annual "Duel in the Desert" on Thursday night in Tucson. Recognized by the NCAA as the oldest trophy game in the country, the Arizona/Arizona State matchup currently favors the Wildcats, 46-36-1. Last year, UA claimed a narrow 20-17 decision in Tempe to keep possession of the Cup for the second straight year.

Arizona State is 5-6 on the season, and needs a win in this clash to earn bowl eligibility. The Sun Devils have won just three of their eight Pac-10 Conference bouts thus far, but they are coming off a victory, a 55-34 decision at home against UCLA that stopped a brief two-game losing streak and was only their second win since October 9th.

At 7-4 on the year, Arizona is heading to a bowl game, but the Wildcats can improve their lot with a win over their long-time rival here. UA shot out of the gate this season, winning four straight and seven of its first eight, but then the wheels fell off, leaving coach Mike Stoops' club mired in a three- game skid. Last week, the 'Cats took on top-ranked Oregon and stood toe-to-toe with the Ducks in the opening half. But in the end, UO prevailed in a 48-29 final.

Arizona State is led by veteran coach Dennis Erickson, and the Sun Devils are among the most productive teams in the Pac-10 this year. Averaging 32.5 ppg, ASU relies more on the pass than anything else, averaging 288.2 ypg through the air to rank second in the conference -- Arizona leads the league at 314.0 ypg. The run game hasn't been nearly as effective for Erickson's squad, as it typically generates somewhere in the neighborhood of 140.8 ypg (seventh in the conference). As a result, the Sun Devils churn out 429.0 total ypg and have scored 40 offensive TDs.

Quarterback Steven Threet has had an up-and-down year for the Sun Devils, throwing for more than 2,500 yards and 18 TDs, but also tossing 16 INTs, which is the most of any signal-caller in the league. Kerry Taylor is ASU's leading receiver, as he has 48 catches for 587 yards, but just three scores. The team's top ground gainer is Cameron Marshall with his 724 yards and eight TDs, and while he averages 5.7 ypc, he isn't getting nearly enough carries as evidenced by the fact that he nets just 65.8 ypg.

Threet suffered a concussion early in last week's win over UCLA, a game in which the Sun Devils trailed 17-0 to start but wound up winning by 22. Back-up Brock Osweiler was sensational as he delivered on 27-of-36 passes for 380 yards and four TDs. Marshall also got into the act, rushing for 148 yards and a score. Osweiler, who is expected to start against the Wildcats, engineered an ASU offensive onslaught that piled up just shy of 600 yards in a little more than 27 minutes of possession time.

Arizona State ranks in the middle of the Pac-10 in scoring defense (24.6 ppg), but it's not because teams are running all over the Sun Devils, who sit atop the league standing in rushing defense (119.8 ypg). The effort against the pass is another thing entirely, as foes are airing it out to the tune of 243.4 ypg, which has the team ranked eighth. Despite the yardage allowed, the ASU defense has only permitted 15 passing scores, which is tied for second-fewest in the league, and the unit also ranks second in red zone defense (.651).

Notable defenders for the Sun Devils include Vontaze Burflict (83 tackles), Omar Bolden (50 tackles, three INTs), Junior Onyeali (10.5 TFLs, 5.5 sacks) and Jamaar Jarrett (10.5 TFLs, 4.5 sacks). Arizona State's Eddie Elder logged a game-high 11 tackles last week against UCLA, which churned out 442 yards of total offense, including 321 through the air. The Bruins picked up 30 first downs, but failed to come away with points on two of their six trips to the red zone. ASU was 6-of-6 in such chances.

As mentioned earlier, Arizona is the Pac-10's top passing team, as QB Nick Foles has completed 68.2 percent of his passes for 2,649 yards, 16 TDs and seven INTs. As a result of his QB's efficiency, WR Juron Criner leads the conference in receptions (67) and receiving yards (1,091). When the Wildcats decide to keep the ball on the ground, it's typically a group effort with Keola Antolin and Nic Grigbsy combining for 1,048 yards and 15 TDs to this point.

Foles shredded the Oregon defense last week, throwing for a career-high 448 yards and three TDs, but even that wasn't enough to keep the Wildcats from suffering their third straight loss. Criner was the high man in the game with his 109 receiving yards and two scores, that effort coming on just three grabs. The Arizona run game was basically non-existent, accounting for just 58 net yards on an average of 2.1 ypc.

Defensively, Arizona is third in the league in points allowed (20.8 ppg), and the 'Cats are yielding 138 ypg on the ground and 201.1 ypg through the air. Paul Vassallo has been UA's most active defensive player this season, making 86 tackles, 65 of which have been solo efforts. That's more than his closest teammate has total stops. Ricky Elmore has eight sacks to his credit.

The Wildcats stood their ground in the first half of last week's bout with Oregon, but wore down in the second half as the nation's No. 1 team racked up 389 rushing yards and four scores in averaging nearly seven yards attempt. Adam Hall registered a game-high 11 tackles and an INT for Arizona in the losing effort.

• PREGAME NOTES
-----------------------
Thanks to some ridiculous scheduling that included a pair of games against FCS schools (Portland State & Northern Arizona), a sixth win won’t even send Arizona State bowling. We’re not quite sure what made the Devils do it, but now they’re paying the price as those two season opening victories aren’t worth much more than a Vince Young rookie card today!

It’s actually a shame that the Sun Worshippers’ season comes to an end this evening in Tucson as Dennis Erickson’s crew have rewarded their backers with a Devil-in-Disguise 7-1-1 ATS log this year. There’s a good chance that the Tempe faithful may get one final pay day as the Sun Devils are 7-2 ATS in their nine visits to Arizona while the Wildcats are 1-7 ATS as favorites in Last Home Games.

Mike Stoops’ 7-4 felines will be going bowling for a third straight season but they’re throwing more gutterballs than strikes these days as they’ve dropped the last three on the SU scoreboard and three of the last four on the ATS scorecard. "Stoops’ 5-10 ATS log versus .428 or less conference opposition furthers suggests this 6-point spread is out of line for these slumping ‘Cats!"
