The consistent take is that this game gets settled up front, with Washington's patched together offensive line seen as a clear weak point against Philadelphia's defensive front.

There's genuine debate about which version of Jayden Daniels shows up, with some seeing him fully healthy and dangerous while others expect early rust and pressure problems.

Quite a few analysts reckon that without AJ Brown, nobody really knows how dangerous Philadelphia's aerial game will look once the season kicks off.

Even among people tipping Philadelphia, there's a recurring caveat that Washington's disguised new schemes and wide range of possible outcomes make this less of a lock than the roster gap suggests.
