Defending champ Eagles lagging behind in Vegas action

The defending champs aren't getting much respect in Las Vegas.
NFL現役的衛冕冠軍隊，在賭城並沒有得到足夠的尊重。
Entering the first week of the NFL regular season, a number of teams --
including the Houston Texans and Los Angeles Chargers -- had better odds to
win the Super Bowl than the Philadelphia Eagles did.
當NFL要進入第一周時，有不少球隊獲得了比費城老鷹隊還要高的奪冠看好率，這當中
還包括休士頓德州人與洛杉磯電光人。
The Eagles were listed at 14-1 on Thursday to win the Super Bowl at the
Westgate Las Vegas SuperBook. The New England Patriots, at 6-1, are the
consensus favorite for a third straight season, with significantly better
odds than the Eagles, who beat the Patriots in last season's Super Bowl.
到NFL開幕賽當天為止，老鷹隊在西門賭場飯店被看好拿到明年超級杯的賠率是1賠14，
遠低於月初才在上屆超級盃被他們打敗的新英格蘭愛國者隊(1賠6)，這也是愛國者連續
三年在這份榜單上稱冠。
The Pittsburgh Steelers, New Orleans Saints and Los Angeles Rams are each
10-1, followed by the Minnesota Vikings, Green Bay Packers, Jacksonville
Jaguars, Chargers and Texans at 12-1.
匹茲堡鋼人、紐奧良聖徒與洛杉磯公羊這三隊均獲得1賠10的賠率，是此榜單的第二領
先集團；第三集團的跟隨者則包括明尼蘇達維京人、綠灣包裝工、傑克森威爾美洲虎
、電光人與德州人，均為1賠12。
At 14-1, the Eagles have the worst preseason odds for a defending Super Bowl
champion since the Baltimore Ravens kicked off their title defense in 2013 at
30-1.
相較之下，老鷹隊1賠14的盤口不僅落後上述球隊，也是2013年巴爾的摩烏鴉隊1賠30
之後，最糟糕的超級盃衛冕軍季前拿冠賠率。
Even at the longer odds, bettors haven't shown much interest in Philadelphia.
As of Tuesday, 10 teams had attracted more bets to win the Super Bowl at the
Westgate than the Eagles, including the New York Giants.
即使在長期機率上，賭客們對費城也沒有更高的興趣。截至星期二時，有十支球隊比
老鷹獲得了更多的下注量，其中還包括同區世仇紐約巨人隊。
Ed Malinowski, sportsbook director for Stratosphere in Las Vegas, described
the betting interest on the Eagles at his shop as "middle of the road."
「同溫層酒店」的運動博彩負責人Ed Malinowski，在受訪時就以「就像在路途中一樣
(不明朗)」，來形容賭客們願意下注老鷹隊的程度。
"There are a ton of teams that have a lot more action [than the Eagles],"
Malinowski said.
他並補充原因︰「有不少球隊在休季期(比老鷹隊)有更多的作為。」
That includes Philadelphia's opener Thursday night at home against the
Atlanta Falcons. The betting action has been lopsided on the underdog Falcons
-- even at the new sportsbooks in New Jersey that are just a few hours' drive
away from Philadelphia. At William Hill sportsbooks in Nevada and New Jersey,
78 percent of the money bet on the game was on Atlanta. FanDuel and
DraftKings each reported at their New Jersey sportsbooks Tuesday that more
than 80 percent of the money on the game was on the Falcons.
這樣的狀況也可以在費城主場面對亞特蘭大獵鷹隊的球季開幕戰中看到。賽前的賭盤
一面倒地傾向於更弱勢的獵鷹隊–即使是在距離費城行車距離不需要太久的紐澤西。
無論是在內華達州還是紐澤西的威廉希爾運彩，有百分之78的金額投注在獵鷹隊身上
。而在FanDuel與DraftKings這兩個新興線上運動品牌，截至星期二的回報更顯示
獵鷹隊的投注金額已經達到80%。
The line on Falcons-Eagles had shrunk as low as Philadelphia minus-1 as of
Thursday morning. It had been as high as Eagles minus-5.5 this summer.
費城隊賽前對獵鷹隊的讓分，在星期四早上仍是負1分，這個數字甚至在暑假期間曾經
被拉開到-5.5。
A lot of the line movement is caused by the Eagles' quarterback situation,
according to Ed Salmons, head football oddsmaker at the Westgate.
在賭盤專家眼中，會造成這樣的怪異現象，主要還是因為老鷹隊本身不夠明確的四分
衛狀況。
"No one knows when [Carson] Wentz is going to be back," Salmons said. "And it
became pretty clear to everyone in the preseason, when he didn't play at all,
that he wasn't going to play Week 1."
西門飯店的美足賭盤機率負責人Ed Salmons表示︰「沒有人知道Carson Wentz何時回
到球場。不過隨著熱身賽的進行，越來越多人已經清楚由於他在熱身賽都沒上場過，
他應該也感不上開幕周了。」
Super Bowl MVP Nick Foles will start at quarterback until Wentz is cleared to
return from a knee injury.
目前的狀況是曾經拿到超級盃MVP的Nick Foles仍是老鷹隊的現役先發四分衛，直到
Wentz的膝蓋傷勢獲得控制並被判定可以回歸球場。
While there is a lack of interest in the defending champions, bettors are
flocking to the Rams. More bets had been placed on the Rams to win the Super
Bowl than on any other team at the Westgate, and more money has been bet on
coach Sean McVay's team than on any other team at William Hill books.
儘管對於衛冕軍興趣缺缺，賭客們倒是更積極地將賭金湧入於公羊隊。這支由Sean
McVay領軍的球隊，不僅在西門賭盤的明年超級盃贏家賭局中是下注量最多的選項，
也在威廉希爾運彩的下注金額稱冠。
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Buffalo Bills are the biggest Super Bowl long
shots on the board at the Westgate, each listed at 300-1.
坦帕灣海盜與水牛城比爾則是西門賭盤中最不容易拿冠軍的球隊，賠率均為1賠300。
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
以下補充除了2013年的烏鴉與今年老鷹外，其他NFL衛冕隊不被看好的年份
TEAM SEASON ODDS
Broncos 2016 20-1
Giants 2012 20-1
Giants 2008 20-1
心得︰有一個不算好的消息是，這幾支球隊當中只有2008年的巨人
還能打進季後賽(而且也沒拿到國聯冠軍)，更不用說蟬聯超級杯冠軍，
不曉得老鷹隊是否能打破這不吉利的詛咒？
然後看到海盜與比爾的賠率比布朗還要慘..海盜是不意外，但比爾？
