How many games will the Washington Redskins win in the 2020 NFL season? We look at BetMGM‘s projected win total and the Over/Under odds, while looking back at the 2019 season and key offseason roster changes.
Washington Redskins’ 2019 season
The Redskins were one of the NFL’s worst teams in 2019, finishing with the second-worst record at 3-13. They weren’t much better against the spread, going 6-10, while posting an 8-8 Over/Under record.
Washington Redskins’ 2020 offseason changes
First off, the Redskins hired a new coach in Ron Rivera. In free agency, they lost OT Ereck Flowers, QB Case Keenum and CB Josh Norman. However, CB Kendall Fuller returns after spending two years with the Kansas City Chiefs. The Redskins also signed free agents in LB Thomas Davis, OT Wes Schweitzer, S Sean Davis and LB Kevin Pierre-Louis, and they traded for QB Kyle Allen.
In the draft, they added DE Chase Young (the No. 2 overall pick out of Ohio State), RB Antonio Gibson (Memphis) and OL Saahdiq Charles (LSU).

Washington Redskins’ 2020 win total: Best bet
Odds via BetMGM; access USA TODAY Sports’ betting odds for a full list. Odds last updated Thursday, May 14 at 3:15 a.m. ET.
Projected wins: 5 / OVER: -130 / UNDER: +110
The Redskins, who are rebuilding around QB Dwayne Haskins, will have a tough road in 2020. They have five games against 2019 playoffs teams and face the upstart Cowboys and Cardinals. There might be only three games they will be favored in. Even if they somehow sneak two wins inside the NFC East, it is tough to find four more wins on the schedule. Haskins was not at all inspiring as a rookie. That combined with a tough schedule makes taking the UNDER 5 (+110) the best bet here.
