LeSean McCoy tops 100 rushing yards and Michael Vick throws for two touchdowns. The top receiver will be Zach Ertz, who will be a featured part of the offense. Look for James Casey's role to expand, too. The Eagles will try to get DeSean Jackson prominently involved, but the Redskins will focus on keeping him in front of them. The Eagles won't have trouble scoring, but they'll have trouble stopping the scoring.



Robert Griffin III won't show problematic signs of rust. The Redskins will run the ball to control the pace of the game, grinding out first downs and using the play-action when they can get the Eagles' defense cheating to the line. The key on the Eagles defense will be their safeties. Nate Allen and Patrick Chung must have good games for the Eagles. Allen keeps talking about how this scheme is more safety-friendly, and Monday will be a good test.



The difference will be turnovers. The Eagles will have more turnovers than Washington, and will lose the game in result.



Prediction: Redskins 30, Eagles 28



What goes right: Vick and McCoy look dynamic, Ertz works his way onto fantasy football rosters.



What goes wrong: Eagles struggle to rush the passer. They also lose the turnover battle.
