Commanders vs. Eagles Prediction, Picks & Odds Today: NFC Championship Game
It's a battle between the biggest underdog remaining and the Super Bowl odds favorite when Jayden Daniels and the Washington Commanders visit the Philadelphia Eagles at Lincoln Financial Field on Sunday. Kickoff is set for 3 p.m. ET (FOX).
The NFC Championship Game gets the action underway, and based on the odds at our best NFL betting sites, it's expected to be the more lopsided of the two matchups.
Can Daniels pull out another shocking result, or will the rookie get a rude awakening against his divisional rival?
As we dig into our conference championship predictions, my Commanders vs. Eagles prediction explores the spread and a somewhat controversial player prop.
Commanders vs. Eagles predictions
NFL picks based on the odds from our best NFL betting sites. Odds subject to change.
- Against the spread pick: Eagles -6 (-110 via bet365) vs. Commanders ⭐⭐⭐
- My best pick: A.J. Brown anytime touchdown (+160 via BetMGM) ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Commanders vs. Eagles ATS prediction: NFC Championship Game
Eagles to cover the spread: -6 ⭐⭐⭐
I offered the Eagles at -5.5 as part of my conference championships early picks and planned to flip to the Commanders if they went to +7 at any of our best sports betting sites.
That has yet to happen, as the majority are sitting at Eagles -6, with only FanDuel at -6.5. Therefore, I'm still backing the home favorites in this letdown spot for the underdog Commanders.
I think the Eagles have too much information on Daniels to make the same mistakes the Detroit Lions did. Not only is there lots of film on him, but these two teams already met twice this season.
Daniels may very well be the best player on the field Sunday afternoon, but the Eagles possess more talent overall.
They own a stifling defense, a talented group of receivers, a fine quarterback (even if Jalen Hurts is the worst QB remaining in the postseason), and, of course, Saquon Barkley.
I'll take the home team to win by a touchdown and accept the push if Philly triumphs by two field goals instead.
Best odds: -110 via bet365 | Implied probability: 52.38%

What's the definition of insanity?
It's often misquoted as "doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results," though that's more of a cute saying tied to the word than the definition itself.
I looked up the actual definition of insanity and it's ... wait a second ... that's just a picture of me placing a bet on an A.J. Brown anytime touchdown.
Brown has been featured in multiple articles I wrote this week, including my look at the 10 players to watch in the conference championships. So there's not much more I need to say about this bet that I haven't already written in those.
The projection is good, the price is good, and Brown is really, really good. The results haven't been favorable to this point, but you have to trust the process.
Because everyone knows that when you trust the process, great things happen, like making it as far as the NBA's Eastern Conference semifinals! (Philadelphia sports fans absolutely don't know how to feel about me at this point.)
