Eagles Chances To Win NFC Decrease Only 3%

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- The Philadelphia Eagles will likely have to play the remainder of the regular season and the postseason without their MVP candidate, Carson Wentz.

The team is expected to announce the severity of Wentz's injury on Monday afternoon, which Adam Schefter reports is believed to be an ACL tear.

A premium sports betting site, SportsLine, still gives the Eagles a 34.4-percent chance to win the NFC down just three percent after the Wentz injury.

The 11-2 Eagles are the first team to clinch a division title and playoff berth this season and are just two wins away from clinching the No. 1 overall seed in the NFC. Their Super Bowl odds, according to Bovada LV, dropped from 11/2 to 9/1 after the injury.

This week the Eagles play at the Giants and the line has only been affected by 1.5 points.
