Our Philadelphia Eagles vs Washington Commanders Prediction
We’re going to back under 43.5 points to be scored as our bet for this match. This total may seem a bit low but these are two teams that know each other well and have the defensive tools to limit each other on the offensive side of the ball. Philadelphia has an elite defense and should be able to hold this Washington offense to yet another low-scoring outing, while the Commanders defense is a bit underrated this season as the underlying statistics show there is a lot that Ron Rivera’s team does right. Overall, expect another hard fought, low-scoring divisional matchup in primetime.
