Philadelphia Eagles vs Washington Commanders Prediction
Philadelphia rolls into this matchup on a five-game winning streak and they have scored at least 28 points in four straight games. The Eagles have been one of the best teams in the NFL this season and they will be at home for this game. Washington has won three of their last four games but did lose a heartbreaker to Pittsburgh last week. I think both of these teams are very good and I expect a lot of points to be scored, but I will take the points with Washington in a game that could come down to the last possession.
