The Philadelphia Eagles will visit the Washington Commanders for Sunday Night Football in Week 8 of the NFL season, with the Eagles forced to start backup quarterback Tanner McKee due to an injury to Jalen Hurts. The Commanders enter as 6-point favorites at DraftKings despite a 1-4-1 record that places them last in the NFC East. Washington head coach Dan Quinn faces pressure to turn the season around, while the Eagles remain in the playoff hunt relying on their defense and running game.
Expert Best Bets
An expert analysis from CBS Sports favors the Commanders to cover the spread, citing the prime-time home atmosphere and the potential for quarterback Jayden Daniels to use his mobility against a banged-up Eagles defensive line. The pick: Commanders -6.
Player Prop Recommendations
Jayden Daniels Over 36.5 rush yards (-109 at DraftKings): Daniels is expected to run frequently, both on designed plays and when pressured.
Makai Lemon Over 43.5 receiving yards (-113 at DraftKings): With the Eagles offense limited, the rookie receiver could see increased targets at a discounted line.
Anytime Touchdown Scorers
Stefon Diggs (+190 at BetMGM): The Commanders wide receiver has been a touchdown threat in prime-time games.
Dallas Goedert (+250 at BetMGM): The Eagles tight end is a reliable red-zone target if McKee can move the offense near the goal line.
