Game Preview

Commanders had one pretty rough year following last year’s NFC Championship Game. It’s up to them now to dust off and have a good, productive free agency. This team has potential, and even though they experienced a setback season, it’s really not that bad.

Concerning their current form, they are 1-10 in the last 11 matches. Regarding efficiency, only one of their 5 games didn’t go OVER.

Philly will be second or third, but the team won’t chase the higher seed here, yet rest its best players. Sirianni is more concerned with injuries than the potential home-field advantage in the Divisional Round.

The Eagles are playing under the radar, winning, but not too shiny or confident like some other teams. Still, they are in the playoffs and have significantly improved since the trade deadline.

Commanders vs. Eagles Head to Head

The two sides played 182 times, and the Commanders lead the series 90-87 with 5 ties. The Eagles won two weeks ago, 29-18, in Washington.

Commanders vs. Eagles Predictions

The total is 38.5 points, and the spread is -4.5 points on the Eagles.

This one will be tricky to bet, but because Sirianni intends to keep his best players off the field, we are going with Washington to cover the spread.
