Recent history favors the Eagles
The Eagles and (insert name here) have played each other 170 times, including one playoff game (1991). The WFT leads the series 86-79-5 but the Eagles are on a six-game win streak. Since 2000, the Eagles are 25-15 against Washington.
Can the Eagles win?
The Eagles need to start off strong Sunday. Being 17-0 at halftime like last year won’t cut it. The WFT defense is improved from last year and it will be able to hold off a comeback. However, the WFT offense shouldn’t be able to do much outside a couple Antonio Gibson plays. Expect the Eagles to win a hard-fought battle 24-17.
