This week's spread indicates a passing game script for the Commanders, who are -4-point underdogs.With respect to a defense's effect on pace, at 29.13 seconds per play, the predictive model expects the Commanders to be the 5th-most sluggish in the league (adjusted for context) at the moment.The passing offenses of both teams (including both volume and effectiveness) stand to benefit from the still weather conditions (4-mph wind) being called for in this game, while run volume may decline.After comprising 60.4% of his offense's rush attempts last season, Brian Robinson has had a smaller role in the ground game this season, now making up just 48.7%.This year, the daunting Eagles run defense has allowed a measly 101.0 adjusted rushing yards per game to opposing squads: the 6th-fewest in the league.
