A popular NFL betting strategy is to make predictions on divisional games since there are often NFL betting trends you can identify with these matchups. You can do that with your Week 16 NFL bets since several division rivalries will unfold on Sunday. One of the marquee matchups on the Week 16 NFL schedule is the NFC East rivalry between the Philadelphia Eagles and Washington Commanders. The Eagles can clinch the NFC East title in Week 16 with a win or tie against the Commanders. According to the latest Eagles vs. Commanders odds, Philadelphia is a 3.5-point favorite, while the over/under for total points scored is 45.5.
The Eagles have won six of their last seven games against Washington, but the Commanders are 5-2 against the spread in their past seven games at home. Should you back the Commanders to pull off the upset, and which teams should you target in division-rivalries like Titans vs. Colts (-3.5, 42.5), Lions vs. Bears (+6.5, 48) and Browns vs. Bengals (-7.5, 47)?
