Washington at Philadelphia

Tonight's primetime game features a showdown between the two best teams in the NFC East. Washington comes off of a 28-27 home loss to Pittsburgh where they blew a 24-14 lead. Washington prefers to run, but the Philadelphia run defense is the fifth-best in the NFL in yards allowed at 100.7 per game. Washington's run defense is 26th, allowing 142.7 yards rushing per contest, plus they're 28th in rushing yards per carry allowed at 4.8, and 23rd on third down (42.1%). Meanwhile, Philadelphia has won five in a row. The Eagles average 176.1 yards rushing, the second-most in the league, while the defense is second in total yards allowed, sixth in points given up (17.9 per game), and 13th on third down (35.78%). The Eagles won both meetings last year, scoring 34 and 38 points. With the wagering value on the home team to extend its win streak, I'm backing Philadelphia on the moneyline.
