Also Philly gave GB 10 points in that game off of two muffed punts. Gotta think that doesn't happen two weeks in a row.
Washington had a hard time with a Miami team which is full of inexperience.

My concerns is how ****ty I did these past two weeks and I am leaning toward philly. LOL.
Seriously though....What about the DBs in Washington...Smoot and Springs. Seems like that could limit Donovans success.
On the other side, I believe that Washington lost an OL to a broken leg last week which should slow down the Washington Running game.
Lets get a good discussion going cause I need a win.Leave a comment:

I accidently bet wash/philly o20 1H last night....hope that helps! LOL.
I like philly at home. same reasons if not for the fact that mcnabb nor anyone throughout the league got enuff reps in the preseason due to fear of injury. this is evidenced by unders and sloppy play in the first week. mcnabb should be ok with westbrook and don't forget buckhalter!Leave a comment:

IMO Mac5 is going to play much better and the Eagles win by 10+.:beerbang:Leave a comment:

***Eagles/Redskins Discussion***
Thought we could get some talk going..... Line is currently -6.5, total 38.5
I think that situationally, Philly has an advantage. Monday Night Football @ home vs. a divisional rival, & fresh off a road loss. This will be Campbell's first start in Philly, & it's a big stage for him. He's only had 3 road starts (1-2), & has been pretty good completing 50% around 190 ypg, 4td o ints. However, those were against NO, STL, & TB.... I'm not sure how he'll perform vs. a defense that can bring a ton of pressure from all different angles in a hostile environment. Last time he faced Philly it was at home. He threw for 182 1td, 2ints, & was sacked twice (Philly won 21-19). I think Philly will be throwing a variety of blitz packages at him early to get him rattled. The Redskins will likely rely on the run game, & why not with Portis/Betts. The question is can the Eagles stop the run? Really looking at last week's game vs. GB I think the D was fine. They held GB to 2.7 ypc (granted Wash's run game is much more potent), they held Favre to 54% 1 int, 0 td & sacked him 4 times. 2 turnovers made the difference, but I think Washington has a bigger chance of turning the ball over this week. Washington barely beat Miami @ home, despite averaging 4.7 ypc as opposed to Miami's 3.3 ypc. Campbell threw 2 picks. I don't think Washington holds Philly under 4 ypc with Westbrook back there.
The biggest question IMO for Philly is how will McNabb perform. This is a huge game for him, as there will really be naysayers if he can't win tonight. Last time he faced Washington @ home it was off a loss. He responded with a 257 2td 0 int game (westbrook added 170 all-purpose) & Philly cruised 27-3. Washington was off a close home win vs. Dallas & Brunell got the start. I think there's a better chance that Donovan bounces back this week with a solid performance than Campbell tearing up Philly's D. Taylor is a heavy hitter (landry too), but is also prone to getting beat deep. I have a hard time seeing the Skins go into Philly on MNF & pulling the win out. Of course I could be wrong, I'd like to hear how Washington beats Philly. Seems as if the public is slightly favoring Philly, but really not enough to signify anything.
I haven't played anything as far as total or side. Right now my favorite play is the Eagles team o22.5, as I think they can put up 23 pts minimum. Last season they went over this number @ home in 6 of 8 games played....
