5 minPhiladelphia Eagles vs. Washington Commanders Prediction: Will Josh Sweat, Haason Reddick Get to Sam Howell?
The Philadelphia Eagles are traveling to play division rivals Washington Commanders. The Commanders have been getting absolutely dominated in the trenches and the Eagles have a fantastic defensive line.
I believe two guys will have a field day like they do every time they play the Commanders: Josh Sweat and Haason Reddick. The Commanders are giving up 5.7 sacks allowed this season and will struggle up front tomorrow versus a legit Philadelphia Eagles defense.

Philadelphia Eagles vs. Washington Commanders Prediction
After looking at stats, I was in shock looking at the record breaking rate Sam Howell is being sacked at this season. As soon as I saw that, and saw he was playing the Eagles, I couldn't put in this bet quick enough. The first time the Eagles and Commanders played in Week 4, the Eagles sacked Howell five times.
The Commanders are averaging an insane 5.7 sacks allowed per game this season as a team. For trends on both pass rushers, Sweat has had a sack in four of seven games this season, along with a half sack in Week 1. When the Commanders came to Philly in Week 4 of this season, Sweat had one of the five sacks on Howell as mentioned earlier. He's also had a sack in the last four matchup between Philly and Washington, going all the way back to the 2021 season.
The trends for Reddick are also pretty good as well. After being held without a sack in the first 3 games of this season he was able to get his first sack of the season against, guess who? You got it, the Washington Commanders in Week 4. He then went on to have 2 sacks the next week versus the Rams and 2.5 sacks against the Jets the following week before his streak came to an end last week against Miami.
As far as the head to head trend goes, Reddick has had a sack in all of the three games he has played against the Washington Commanders as a member of the Philadelphia Eagles. I believe both Josh Sweat and Haason Reddick will have a day tomorrow for this terrible Commanders offensive line.
