#265/266 ASA TOP PLAY ON 10* Under 43.5 Points – Washington Commanders vs Philadelphia Eagles, Monday at 8:15 PM ET - The Philly defense is one of the best in the NFL allowing just 4.7 YPP (2nd) and they are facing a Washington offense that averages just 4.9 YPP (28th). The Commanders are averaging just 17 PPG on the season and they have topped that number just ONCE in their last 7 games. Over that 7 game stretch Washington is averaging just 14.8 PPG and one of those games was vs Philadelphia who held them to 8 points. The only TD Washington scored in that first meeting with the Eagles – a 24-8 loss – was with under 2 minutes remaining in the game. While the Commanders offense has been poor, their defense has been quite respectable. They have not allowed more than 21 points in any of their last 5 games with 4 of those going Under the total. The key to slowing down the Eagles offense is to limit their potent rushing attack and Washington is very solid vs the run. In the first meeting this year, the Commanders held Philadelphia to 72 yards rushing which makes them the only defense this season to hold the Eagles under 100 yards on the ground. They also held them to 24 points which is the 2nd lowest total for Philly this year. The Eagles have a tendency to get a lead in the first half and then eat clock in the 2nd half, shortening the game. To that point, Philly leads the NFL averaging 21 PPG in the first and but only put up 8 PPG in the 2nd. We anticipate this type of game tonight with the Eagles laying 11 points, we like them to get out to a lead and then eat clock in the 2nd half. Since the start of the 2020 season, these 2 have met 5 times and scored an average of 38 points in those games with none topping 44. We like the Under tonight.
