Philadelphia’s red-zone efficiency, turnover advantage and talented defense provide several reasons for confidence in Week 1
The Eagles are undefeated in five season openers under Nick Sirianni and stand a good chance of reaching 6-0 against the Washington Commanders.
However, thanks in part to the offensive line concerns, ESPN recently projected that the Commanders would win just 7.3 games this upcoming season. It's a brutally low projection, but one that could come true if the warning signs for this team are real.
The Eagles should be able to exploit Washington at the line of scrimmage on both sides of the ball. Saquon Barkley has the potential for a big day. In four games against the Commanders since he’s been in Philadelphia, he has averaged 136.5 rushing yards and scored eight touchdowns.
