Washington Redskins vs. Philadelphia Eagles Betting Preview

In this Monday NFC matchup, Philadelphia has been labeled as the favorite and is currently giving up 6 points. The Redskins are also receiving +190 moneyline odds while the Eagles are -230. Vegas has determined the over/under (O/U) to be 43.5 points, and should one team can get out in front early, it will probably create a nice in-game betting opportunity.

Sharp bettors have been siding with the Redskins. This line initially opened at -7 and the game’s over/under was placed originally at 44.

The Redskins have recorded 0.1 units so far in 2018 and are 7-4 against the spread (ATS). The team’s recorded an O/U mark of 5-6. The Eagles have been a disappointment to moneyline bettors this season, losing 5.7 units. They’re 3-8 ATS and own an O/U record of 4-7.

The Redskins have gone 6-5 straight up (SU), including 2-1 SU against NFC East opponents. The Eagles are 5-6 SU overall and also 2-1 SU against divisional foes.

The Redskins are hoping to get back in stride after a 31-23 defeat to Dallas in Week 12. Colt McCoy completed 24 passes for 268 yards, two touchdowns and three interceptions. Adrian Peterson (35 yards on 12 rush attempts) mounted the running attack. Jordan Reed (six receptions, 75 yards) and Josh Doctson (six catches, 66 yards) shared the receiving duties in the defeat.

Philadelphia just got a 25-22 win over the Giants last week. Carson Wentz completed 20-of-28 passes for 236 yards and one touchdown. Josh Adams (84 yards on 22 rush attempts, one TD) mounted the running game while Zach Ertz (seven receptions, 91 yards, one TD) and Golden Tate (four catches, 30 yards) led the pass-catching corps in the win.

Washington’s run the ball on 44.2 percent of its offensive possessions this year while Philadelphia has an overall rush percentage of 39.1 percent. The Redskins have produced 118 rush yards/game (including 131 per game versus East opponents) and have 10 touchdowns on the ground this year. The Eagles are totaling 101 rush yards per game (102 in conference) and have eight total rushing TDs.

If 2018 results are any indication, then it appears the Redskins ought to have the more disruptive lines up front. Their offensive line has allowed just 41 sacks while the D-line registered 42 sacks. The Eagles offensive line has allowed 36 sacks and their defense has generated only 38 sacks.

The Redskins offensive scheme has logged 227 yards/contest in the air overall (208 per game against conference opposition) and has 13 passing TDs so far. The Eagles have produced 273 pass yards per game (291.3 against NFC competition) and have 17 total pass scores.

Defensively, Washington has allowed 100 rush yards and 280 pass yards per game. The Philadelphia D has allowed 294.4 yards per game to opposing passers and 103.6 yards per game to opposing runners. The Redskins are allowing an adjusted net yards per pass attempt (ANY/A) of only 6.41 to opponents, while the Eagles have given up a 6.97 ANY/A.

Offensively, McCoy has put up 268 passing yards this year. He’s connected on 63 percent of his 38 attempts with two scores through the air and three interceptions. McCoy has a 3.80 adjusted net yards per pass attempt, including 3.95 over the last two outings.

Look for a balanced attack offensively from Washington in this one. Jordan Reed (466 receiving yards, one receiving touchdown this season), Josh Doctson (302 receiving yards, two receiving TDs) and Adrian Peterson (707 rush yards, four rush TDs, one TD) have each played key roles lately.

Carson Wentz has completed 211-of-297 passes for 2,384 yards, 16 TDs and three INTs for Philadelphia. His ANY/A sits at 7.40 for the year and 3.54 over his past two games.

We expect the Eagles to control tempo by feeding the ball-carriers early and often. Along with TE Zach Ertz (880 receiving yards, six receiving TDs this season), Josh Adams (238 rush yards, one rush TD) and Corey Clement (225 rush yards, two rush TDs, 141 receiving yards) have really been key factors in the Eagles’ recent offensive strategies.
