Les Bowen: The Eagles aren’t going to go 15-1, and they can lose this week against a Washington team that is better offensively than the team they defeated in the opener. But I’m not picking that. I am picking the Redskins to cover.
I think the Eagles are at the point where if the line protects Carson Wentz, and they don’t turn the ball over more than the other team, they win, week in and week out. Losing first-round rookie Jonathan Allen really hurts the Washington pass rush. he wasn’t racking up sacks, but he was getting good push up the middle.
