Eagles open as 4.5-point favorites in Week 1 vs Redskins

The 2020 NFL schedule is out and the Eagles will rekindle their heated rivalry with the Washington Redskins in the season opener for the second-straight season.

Both teams will look drastically different, with the Redskins replacing GM Bruce Allen and replacing him with a decision-maker and head coach, Ron Rivera.

The Redskins offer a new face in the rivalry with the addition of Ohio State game wrecker Chase Young with the No. 2 overall pick.

He’ll get an early opportunity to test his skills against Lane Johnson, Andre Dillard, and maybe even Jason Peters.

The defending NFC East champions will get the benefit of the doubt entering the ballgame and according to odds from BetMGM the Eagles are early 4.5-point road favorites over the host Redskins.

The Redskins will return Dwayne Haskins at quarterback and the uber-talented Terry McLaurin at wide receiver.
