Washington Football Team slight road underdog at Philadelphia Eagles in Week 17

The Washington Football Team is a small underdog in its Week 17 road game at the Philadelphia Eagles

The Washington Football Team (6-9) visit the Philadelphia Eagles (4-10-1) in Week 17’s Sunday Night Football game at 8:20 p.m. Here’s a look at the early Washington-Eagles betting odds and lines at BetMGM Sportsbook.

Washington missed a chance to clinch the NFC East by losing at home to the Carolina Panthers 20-13 in Week 16 as a 1-point underdog. However, it can still win the division with a win vs. the Eagles next Sunday. Against the Panthers, QB Dwayne Haskins (14-of-28, 154 passing yards, 0 TD, 2 INT) was benched in the fourth quarter for Taylor Heinicke (12-of-19, 137 passing yards, 1 TD, 0 INT). Haskins was stripped of the ball and threw 2 interceptions before halftime as Washington fell behind 20-3. It’s highly likely the 15th overall pick of the 2019 NFL Draft has taken his last snap with Washington. The team hopes starting QB Alex Smith will be able to play against the Eagles after missing the last two games with a strained calf.

The Eagles were eliminated from the playoff picture with a 37-17 loss at the Dallas Cowboys in Week 16. Philly, which was a 3-point favorite, led 14-3 after the opening quarter but trailed 20-17 at the half. The Eagles still had their chances down 30-17, but a turnover on downs and three consecutive turnovers in the fourth quarter ended their three-year run of postseason appearances, which included a Super Bowl title in 2017. QB Jalen Hurts, who made his third consecutive start, threw for 342 passing yards with a TD and 2 picks while rushing for a team-high 69 yards on 9 carries.
