NFC Championship Picks, best bets

On By Littum

It’s been a magical race for the Washington commanders going from 4-13 to an NFC championship game appearance against Divisional Rival Eagles.

Jayden Daniels is the obvious story here as the gift that continues with the total No. 2 -collected election in 2024 NFL Draft, putting his team a win away from a Super Bowl -Kaj.

Washington comes into Sunday’s Matchup as a 6.5-point underdog, supported by its No. 8 location in FTN’s Aaron Schatz, weighted defense-adjusted value over average (DVOA) statistics.

Eagles rank third in this statistics.

The two teams split their matchups this season as Eagles defeated the commanders, 24-16, on “Thursday night football” on November 14, while Washington spoke an insane 36-33 comeback victory 22 December.

Jalen Hurts started this game and was injured in the first quarter while he led, 7-0. Eagles led by as much as 14 before Washington gathered for the impressive triumph.

Commanders vs. Eagles prediction

Health is a concern for Hurts as he seemed to deal with a legitimate leg injury last week, even though he has practiced and will undoubtedly fit up this game.

We’ve seen Eagles’ offense fight to throw the ball, but I’m not sure it has been bad for a lack of ability or urgency to do so.

Against Steelers, Hurts went for 290 passing yards and two touchdowns and joked afterwards that fans should not question their passing game skills, but rather their willingness to let go.

They may not even have to throw, as the commanders have the 26th ranked run defense, according to DVOA.

Reading on NFL?

In a game like this where the Eagles could simply take the bill’s approach and not throw the ball so much, we see a tough matchup to Washington.

Philadelphia was an average of 5.1 meters per day. Rush trials, the NFL-Feather-best mark, while running a league-high 36.1 times per day. Match.

Washington could stop the race in this game, but there is nothing that shows us that it will be capable of it.

We need birds and watch Sunday.
