Philadelphia Eagles vs Washington Commanders Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 12/20/25

One of the two games on Saturday’s NFL Week 16 slate comes in the NFC East, where the Eagles are set to take on the Commanders in the first of a pair of games over the final few weeks of the season. Philadelphia appeared to finally have its “get right” game a week ago, but it was against a Raiders team that is probably the worst outfit in football at the moment, so it’s hard to properly assess just how well the Eagles are playing at the moment. What we do know is that Philadelphia has largely struggled to consistently score for most of the season, and it’s actually the run game that has continued to underperform against expectations. This is the worst rush attack that the Eagles have had in years, and it’s certainly worth examining if Philadelphia will be able to continue winning without having a successful ground game. After all, it’s not as if Jalen Hurts is playing his best football at the moment, so the Eagles below average passing game shouldn’t be expected to have much success on the road in a divisional game.

On the other side, Washington is without Jayden Daniels for the remainder of the season, but Marcus Mariota has been effective as a backup quarterback when called upon this season. Just last week, the Commanders knocked off the Giants as short road underdogs, and the offense was surprisingly competent given the injuries that Washington has sustained to this point. With that in mind, even if the Commanders fall behind in this game, we can still count on Mariota and this offense to fight and stay within striking distance against an opponent that has struggled to win by margin all season long. I’ll take the full touchdown with the home team.
