But if they over that same span were playing without having a rest disadvantage, they were 55% ATS, which is a plus 4% ROI, which was the fourth best in the NFL.

And their ROI was the worst in the NFL when they played with a rest disadvantage.

So, um,

The same has held true under Ben Johnson last year.

Obviously, now we're talking about a very small sample size, but they went 11-2 straight up, 11-1-1 ATS last year when they did not have a rest disadvantage.

But when they did have a rest disadvantage, 0-2 straight up and against the spread last season.

So this was a team, there are certain teams that have been more equipped to deal with rest disadvantages than others.

This is a team that has not been as much in the past equipped to deal with rest disadvantages, but they're not going to have to really worry about that this year, whether they've become better under Ben Johnson or not, because they've got the best net rest edge of any team in the NFL this season.

Yeah, but people – I would say fans around here are more into the schedule than they had been in prior years of stuff that Warren's talking about, which I never would hear from a regular fan about two, three years ago.

Now I have people come up to me like, yeah, I think it's them and the Chargers, right, play four different teams coming off fives.

That is a big deal, right?

You can't just overlook this type of stat.

So I'm happy to hear Warren break this down because I do look at them and look at their schedule and it's like, okay, they're still clearly the best team in their division.

For a first-place schedule, it's not that brutal, but it does feel like they have a lot of these weird primetime games throughout the season that just are putting them in bad spots and disadvantages.

They're one of the few teams going, I believe, to England to play a game and coming back and not taking the bye weekend.

I don't even know.

It might be the Panthers.

I feel like they're playing a team who's coming off a bye week that week.

But, yeah, Warren, tell me the bad news.

How bad is this Eagles' rest disadvantage?
