The Washington Commanders visit the Philadelphia Eagles for a crucial NFC East matchup on Thursday Night Football. Here are the key predictions and betting analysis:

Top Picks:

• Commanders +3.5 (-105) at Caesars Sportsbook
• Over 48.5 points (-110) at ESPN Bet

Why Back the Commanders:

• Commanders have better point differential (+73 vs +72) and DVOA rating than Eagles
• Rookie QB Jayden Daniels playing at elite level with 101.7 passer rating and 464 rushing yards
• Washington's defense vastly improved, allowing just 21.7 PPG vs 30.5 PPG last season
• Eagles' recent wins came against teams with losing records (combined 13-35)

Why Take the Over:

• Eagles scoring 28+ points in last four games
• Commanders offense explosive, just scored 27 on strong Steelers defense
• Both teams capable of putting up points consistently

Latest Odds:

• Spread: Eagles -3.5
• Total: 48.5
• Moneyline: Eagles -183, Commanders +165

The improving Commanders should keep this divisional clash competitive against an Eagles team that hasn't faced many quality opponents during their win streak. Expect a high-scoring affair with both offenses finding success.
