The Philadelphia Eagles Look to Extend Their Win Streak Against the Washington Commanders

Jalen Hurts and the Philadelphia Eagles are off to an impressive 6-1 start to the season. They will now face off against the Washington Commanders in a highly anticipated NFC East matchup on Sunday. The Eagles have a strong history against their divisional rivals, having won five out of their last six road games against the Commanders. On the other hand, Washington has struggled in recent contests against NFC East opponents, with just three wins in their last 13 games.

According to the latest Week 8 NFL odds, the Eagles are favored by 6.5 points on the road. This makes them one of the largest favorites of the week. The Eagles are coming off a dominant win against the Dolphins, where their defense performed exceptionally well by limiting Miami to only 244 yards of total offense and 17 points.

In another game to watch, the Lions are favored to cover the 8.5-point spread at home against the Raiders on Monday Night Football.
