Monday Night Football Odds: Eagles vs Redskins - NFL Picks
The Philadelphia Eagles (5-3) will be looking to take a share of first place in NFC East tonight when they travel to face the Washington Redskins (4-4) who will be looking to turn their misfortunes around and gain ground as the 3rd place team in the NFC East as underdogs in Monday night football odds. Online sportsbooks have listed the Eagles as 3-point favorites in Monday night football picks vs the Redskins for the game that can be seen on ESPN television.
Sportsbooks are reporting that 75% of the gambling public are taking Philadelphia on the road in Monday night football odds and for good reason as the Eagles have gone 3-1 on the road this season while the Redskins are a mediocre 2-2 when playing at FedEx field. It has been a carousel at quarterback for Philadelphia as the injury to Kevin Kolb allowed for the resurgence of Michael Vick who has thrown for seven touchdowns with 0 interceptions before injuring his ribs vs the Redskins in a week 4 loss. Vick will get the start tonight and is excited to finish what he started hopefully with a win this time around.
"I play this game the way I play it and I'm not going to change," Vick said heading into Monday night football picks as favorites. "I'm not going to play this game scared or hesitant or conservative." Washington has had their own quarterback controversy with head coach Mike Shananan going back and forth between former Eagle Donovan McNabb and Rex Grossman. It seems as if it Shananan isn't convinced that McNabb can lead the Redskins especially after numerous hamstring injuries but is expected to get the start tonight in Monday night football odds against his former team to prove his worth. "Right now, he's improved from last week, but by no means is he full speed yet," Shanahan said this week. "As we go later in the week, I'll get a feel exactly where he's at, but right now I can't tell you if he could go full speed."
