The current betting odds have the Eagles listed as a 6.5 point favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The Eagles are off to a 2-0 start this season and they have looked really good in both of their games. They absolutely embarrassed the Vikings at home on Monday night but they have already had a road test this year with their win in Detroit in Week 1. They struggled to get their offense going at the start of that game but they started to roll in the 2nd quarter and even though they let the Lions back in near the end, they had complete control of that game. Their defense also showed up big in their last game against the Vikings, and they will come to play here in their divisional game of the year. The Commanders got a win at home against the Jaguars in Week 1 but they got destroyed on the road last week as they were able to do nothing in Detroit in the 1st half. They got their offense going in the 2nd half but by then it was too late and they were unable to make the comeback. The Eagles have a very good team this year and look like the easy favorite to win their division right now. The best way to place a bet here is on the Eagles to cover the spread in this game.
