Washington Redskins vs. Philadelphia Eagles Pick<\/h2>\n

The Redskins and Eagles meet in a key match-up this Sunday with the Redskins a half game behind the New York Giants for the NFC East lead. The Redskins, after that first week loss to the Giants, have been absolutely fantastic since. They\u2019ve beaten the New Orleans Saints, Arizona Cardinals and Dallas Cowboys since the first week of the NFL. For NFL betting fans, the Skins have been a very reliable team in the first month of the season going 3 and 1 against the BetUS online wagering spread. They might be catching the Eagles at a good time as Washington\u2019s defense has been playing spectacularly while the Eagles\u2019 offense has struggled the past couple of weeks.<\/p>\n

Of course part of the Eagles\u2019 struggles have to do with the fact that Brian Westbrook, one of the best running backs in the NFL, hasn\u2019t been able to play. A healthy Westbrook and healthy Donovan McNabb makes this team very, very good. The Eagles are 2 and 2 ATS. Football betting fans could see the Eagles improve on that if McNabb and Westbrook get healthy. If not, the Eagles could be very bad against the online wagering spread for a while.<\/p>\n

Here are the BetUS online betting odds for this game:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Washington Redskins + 5 \u00bd – 110 ` + 200 O 42 \u00bd – 110
\nPhiladelphia Eagles – 5 \u00bd – 110 – 240 U 42 \u00bd – 110<\/p>\n

Here are a few online wagering trends that might help us find a good online bet in this game:<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Washington Redskins are 7 and 2 against the spread in their last 9 games overall.
\nThe Washington Redskins are 4 and 1 against the spread in their last 5 games versus a team from the NFC East Division.
\nThe Philadelphia Eagles are 4 and 1 against the spread in their last 5 games versus a team from the NFC East Division.
\nThe Under is 6-2-1 in the last 9 meetings between these two teams.<\/p>\n

This should be a classic NFC East battle between two very good teams. The Eagles have what some might consider the better offense, but the Redskins without a doubt have a better defense. Both teams might look to run the ball in this game. If that happens, then I expect the trend of this match-up going Under to prevail.<\/p>\n

To me the BetUS Over\/Under at 42\u00bd points in the online sportsbook is the bet to take a look at. The Eagles are beat up. The Redskins are fairly conservative on the offensive side of the ball.<\/p>\n

The trend says this game goes Under and I won\u2019t argue. To me, making an online wager on the game between the Philadelphia Eagles and the Washington Redskins to go Under is the way to go.<\/p>\n
