Redskins Breakdown: The offseason changes in Washington have failed to pay dividends thus far as the combination of Mike
Shanahan and Donovan McNabb has resulted in a 1-2 record. Yes, it is still early, but there are a number of distrubing signs, including a defense that ranks dead last in the league in yards per game allowed (423.7).
For his part McNabb has been performed admirably, producing a 89.2 passer rating while completing 60.8 percent of his passes. The offense, though, despite averaging 340 yards per game, is posting a pedestrian 18.7 points per contest. The team's lack of scoring can mostly be attributed to an anemic rushing attack that is averaing just 74.3 yards per game.
Eagles Breakdown: While McNabb's new club seems to be headed to the NFC East cellar, his old team is soaring to new heights with Michael Vick under center. Philadelphia improved to 2-1 last weekend after smasing the Jaguars 28-3 in Jacksonville. The win, which marked Vick's second start of the season, saw the former pro bowler throw for 291 yards and three touchdowns.
In two and half games, Vick has thrown for 750 yards and six touchdowns (zero interceptions) while rushing for 170 yards and one score.
The Eagles are averaging 27.7 points and 367.7 yards per game under the former Hokies watch.
NFL Picks Betting Trend: The Over is 8-2 in the Eagles last 10 games as a home favorite.
