Week 1: Commanders' Depleted Line Visits Eagles in Division Opener
Read the full recap →The Washington Commanders visit the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday, September 13, in an NFC East opener between teams that split last season's series, with Washington winning the Week 18 meeting in Philadelphia. The Commanders lost left tackle Laremy Tunsil to a torn triceps and defensive tackle Jer'Zhan Newton to a torn pec within a week of the opener, and edge rusher Dorance Armstrong serves a one-game suspension. Philadelphia opens its first season without A.J. Brown, with Sean Mannion calling plays for Jalen Hurts, and will be without new edge rusher Jonathan Greenard, ruled out with a pec strain after limited practices this week.
Washington lost two starters up front in a week
Brandon Coleman slides to left tackle for Tunsil, and center Nick Allegretti has not practiced since the first day of camp.
Philadelphia's offense after Brown
Marquise Brown, Dontayvion Wicks and first-round pick Makai Lemon replace the production Brown took to New England, under a new coordinator.
Washington won the last one
The Commanders came back from seven down in the fourth quarter to win 24-17 in Week 18, a game Philadelphia had already clinched the division before.
Pregame AI Prediction
How the prediction did
Predicted 17-24 (Commanders vs Eagles), final was 22-24. Philadelphia held on 24-22, a correct high-confidence winner but a much closer game than the seven-point projection.
Commanders
Eagles Jayden Daniels behind a patched-together line
Losing Tunsil and possibly Allegretti against Jalen Carter and Philadelphia's interior is the single biggest mismatch of the game.
Philadelphia is deeper on both lines
Even without Greenard, the Eagles' front seven is intact, while Washington's pass rush is missing Newton and Armstrong.
Philadelphia's new-look passing game is unproven
Without Brown and with a first-time play-caller, the Eagles' offense is the reason the projected margin stays at a touchdown.
Washington's August injuries on the offensive line drive this pick more than anything Philadelphia did in the offseason.
