I was debating whether I should take the Iggles on the ML or with the points.

DAMN.

I did it because I had cashed with the Indy ML/UNDER parlay. That was major money I woulda/coulda/shoulda have won.

When I play football moneyline dogs, I usually take them with the spread as well when they are getting 3 or more just to be safe.

It was bad because you had common numbers (even bad) on both ends. Parleys are only good if you have an edge on the numbers involved, or if there is a STRONG correlation.

BINGO.

Now that you mention it, why didn't I just do two different parlays? Geez.
