Washington at Philadelphia

Two seasons ago the Washington Redskins had a real weapon at QB in RGIII. He changed the offense with his ability to be a duel threat QB. Since then his impact has dropped to negligble thanks to injuries as he has not been a threat to run. The insertion of Kirk Cousins into the offense may be a blessing for the Redskins. Cousins started three games a year ago and looked sharp. And while he looked good last week, that was against Jacksonville without their best defensive back. Cousins threw seven INTs last year to four TDs at a woeful 5.5 yard per attempt. I look for Washington to grind this game out behind Alfred Morris to keep Philadelphia's offense off the field and shorten the game. Let's not forget that the Skins have allowed just 26 total points in two games thus far. The Eagles are 2-0, but vs. teams that are a combined 0-4 and have played a pair of out-of-conference games, which are usually higher scoring. The Eagles are 7-3 to the UNDER in their last 10 vs. the NFC, including 4-0 to the UNDER inside the division in their last four. The Skins have played five straight to the UNDER inside the division, and this series is 5-2-1 to the UNDER in the last eight. NFL divisional games with a total set in the 50s went 34-6 to the UNDER last season. This one doesn't get there so take the UNDER.
