Philadelphia Eagles vs Washington Redskins Betting Odds provided by 5Dimes
Philadelphia -3
Washington +3
Over/Under: 44
Philadelphia- The Eagles finally got into the win column with their 24-17 road win over the Jets on Monday night. Now they get a chance to make it two in a row vs a Washington team that is not playing well. In the win over the Jets , the eagles offense looked better, especially their running game which churned out 123 yards, after combining for just 70 yards the first two weeks of the season. The running game is what fuels the Eagles offense, but still they need more out of their passing game as Bradford struggled again. Sam went just 14 of 28 for 118 yards in the game and he now has a QBR of just 72.3 for the year. The defense for the Eagles played well vs the run, but did allow the jets to pass for 276 yards in the game. That pass defense is now 23rd in the league, allowing 272 ypg so far.
Washington- The Washington Redskins come into the game at 1-2 on the year and have had extra rest after playing on Thursday night last week. This is not a team that is expected to do much this year and many were surprised that they beat the Rams in week 2. Last week they took on the Giants on the road and lost the game 32-21 The game was 32-14 before a 101 yard Kickoff return by Rashad Ross made the game a bit closer in the end. Washington actually outgained the Giants by 40 yards in the game, but the Giants won the turnover battle 3-0, which really turned out to be the difference in the game. The Skins had their best passing game of the year as but still they are ranked 21 st in the league in passing at 228 ypg. A couple of bright spots for the Skins has been a running game that ranks 4th in the league and a defense that ranks 2nd in yards allowed.

[264] Philadelphia/ Washington Under 44
I will go with the Eagles in this one. Philly is the better team and their offense may have wake up last week. It's still not great, but it is still much better than that of the Skins. This Washington offense is all about the run, so the Eagles can load up to stop it as the Washington passing game just doesn't scare anyone. Philly needs this game in the worst way and I feel they will come up with another big effort and win this one by at least 7 points.
