The pre-game read
Philadelphia hosts at Lincoln Financial Field with Jalen Hurts, who is 8-1 against Washington with five straight wins in meaningful games. The Eagles have Saquon Barkley, DeVonta Smith, and a defensive line anchored by Jalen Carter that could be elite in 2026. New OC Sean Mannion introduces some Week 1 uncertainty, but the talent gap is substantial. Washington lost OT Laremy Tunsil this offseason, and while Jayden Daniels is healthy for this one, the Commanders' offensive line issues and the Eagles' pass rush (Jalyx Hunt, Nolan Smith Jr.) create a difficult matchup. Neither team has any injury designations, but the Eagles' home-field advantage and superior roster depth make this a clear STRONG call.
