History
The division rivals have a long history. The Redskins lead the regular season series 85-79-5, while being 1-1 in the playoffs. However, the Eagles have won the last five match ups.
Game predictions
It’s another “must win” game for the Eagles. They’re traveling into enemy territory, where tickets are selling as low as $20 on some sites, to face an extremely bad offense. This shouldn’t be a close game, but we all know the Eagles will make it that way. Look for Carson Wentz and his band of misfit toys continue their momentum towards the week 16 Cowboys showdown. Eagles win 31-21
Stat predictions
- Wentz: 24/33 260 yards 2 touchdowns
