![]() ![]() ![]() Carson Wentz’ development changes this series, but I’m not convinced he’s going to be able to get away with two great performances in a row against Washington. Before the 2017 campaign started, the ‘Skins had won five matchups in a row with this opponent, but that changed in the season-opener. Price’s Take: “For the past few seasons, Washington was always an easy pick against the Eagles. Here is what Jon Price thinks of it all, as well as his thoughts on which side will emerge victorious: It hasn’t been pretty for Washington on Monday nights, but that could change tonight with the team desperately needing a win to have a chance in the NFC East. Here’s a look at how the team has performed in these matchups over the past decade: It’s prime time and we want to play well in a big game.Īs a franchise, the Redskins have not been playing well in primetime games long before Cousins was named the starter. So that is certainly the goal and hopefully over the years we can get that record up. With that being said, I would love to be 1-5 on Monday Night Football after Monday night. ![]() I think that’s a misleading indication of what’s going on. The Michigan State product was asked about that winless record and what it means, as per The Washington Times: Since taking over as the starter in Washington, Cousins has yet to win a Monday matchup-losing all five prior attempts, including a primetime showdown with the unbeaten Kansas City Chiefs back in Week 4. Monday Night Football is another area where Cousins and the Redskins have struggled. Gruden will need to have his own quarterback prepared to put points on the board, something Cousins is quite capable of-although it is worth noting that the quarterback has been drawing criticism for failing to show up in important matchups. Wentz been balling I can't lie but can my man Kirk Cousins get some love? Inconsistent WRs, unreliable run game & still putting up #s #HTTR /ynGAyraULS One fan tweeted that Cousins’ numbers are looking far better than Wentz’s: I don't know how he got to Philadelphia, and I'm very upset about that…Obviously he's got the big, strong arm, he's got the big body, he can run through tackles, all that stuff, but his poise under pressure is something that you cannot coach. I think he's already proven this short in his career that he's one of the top quarterbacks in the league, quite frankly, and he's going to be for a long time. He's progressed at a rate as fast as anybody I've seen, really. Washington head coach Jay Gruden had nothing but praise for the 24-year-old signal caller and the strides he has made during the lead up to their Monday Night Football meeting, as per ESPN: Before getting to his expert prediction, let’s take a quick peek at a complete preview, which includes start time, TV information, updated odds and more, for Week 7’s Monday Night Football game between the Redskins and Eagles. Will Philly make it two in a row or will Washington get back to its winning ways? Jon Price of, a pro-Las Vegas handicapper, has provided his thoughts on that for readers. The Eagles opened as a 5.5-point favorite, but have been bet down to -4.5-which still makes them a sizable favorite in a rivalry that they have won just once in the last six tries. The sportsbooks are expecting a relatively close matchup, but ultimately the odds are projecting a Philadelphia victory tonight. Philly is in the driver's seat right now, which is why Washington desperately needs to pick up a road win tonight to have a real shot at competing for it, especially if the title comes down to tiebreakers when all is said and done. ![]() 500 and dealing with outside distractions, there is an extremely high chance that one of the ‘Skins or Eagles takes the divisional crown at the end of the 2017 season.
