The Washington Redskins are taking on the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 13 of the 2018 NFL season. Here’s a look at some bold predictions for that contest.

Week 13 was always an important game. The Redskins are on the road against a divisional rival with a chance to improve to 7-5. They get a chance to take on the reeling Super Bowl Champion Eagles, and this was supposed to be a game that allowed the Redskins to get back to sole possession of first place.

Or, at least some thought that might happen. However, the Cowboys’ surprising victory over the Saints on Thursday put a wrench in those plans. Now, the Redskins need a win to stay tied with the Cowboys for first and keep control of their own destiny.

I guess you could say the stakes are high.

With all that is tied to this game for both teams — a loss moves either team into third place in the division race — a lot of crazy stuff could happen. We could see some big performances and weird stat lines in this contest as both teams fight for their 2019 playoff lives. That said, here’s a look at some bold predictions for the Redskins vs. Eagles game in Week 13.
