Eagles vs. Redskins Betting Preview October 16, 2016
Betting Preview
The Eagles lost their first game of the season last week while the Redskins won their third straight game. Not known for their defense, Washington has held their last 3 opponents to a combined total of nine points on three field goals covering the second half of each game.
Since two of the three Eagle wins were against a combined 1-9 Cleveland and Chicago, the big question is – how real is quarterback Carson Wentz. Washington’s quarterback Kirk Cousins is ranked sixth in the league with 1,432 yards passing. The last time he faced the Eagles he passed for 365 yards and 2 touchdowns.
The oddsmakers opened this game with Washington as a one and a half point favorite but according to Covers.com Consensus and Analysis with 61% of the public behind the Eagles, the line has moved to Philadelphia as a two and a half point favorite.
The total is 44.5 and 71% of the public think that will be surpassed with ease as they are backing the over.
