Week 8 · · Northwest Stadium


Low: close to a coin flip.
Washington Commanders having more rest (13.0 vs 6.0 days) and Washington Commanders' recent scoring (22.6–26.9 points per game vs 17.6–23.4) drive most of this prediction towards Washington Commanders. Philadelphia Eagles' higher Elo rating (1431 vs 1414) pulls the other way.
