Quick Answer
Final (Sunday, September 13, 2026): Washington Commanders 22, Philadelphia Eagles 24 — NFL Week 1, 2026. Our pre-game model had the Eagles by 6.5 (67% to win); the Eagles won, so that call hit. The last Kalshi price we archived before kickoff had the Eagles at 68c. The graded recap below covers how it happened and how each player call on our board resolved.

Next: NFL Week 2 predictions →See how the model has done vs Kalshi →
Philadelphia managed ten first downs, lost time of possession by seven minutes, and won because Jalen Hurts threw three touchdowns on twenty-five attempts and Dallas Goedert caught two of them. Washington scored with sixty-one seconds left and went for two down eight — the same maths New Orleans faced in Detroit, and the same result.
Commanders 22—Eagles 24
Final✓ Call hitThe model had Philadelphia at 67.2%, the strongest read it held on any Sunday game, and Philadelphia won — so the chip is a hit. It is the softest hit on the board: a 67% favorite that won by two points on ten first downs is not a number that was validated, it is a number that survived. No Kalshi position was published on this game — there is no nfl_weekly_edges row — so there is nothing in the ledger to grade, and the honest reading is that a 67% model against a market that never moved off Philadelphia -238 produced no disagreement worth publishing. The market’s only real adjustment was the total, down three points from 46.5 to 43.5, and the game landed on forty-six. That is the third total on the slate where the closing move pointed the wrong way. Three of twelve is noise. It is also three more data points in the same direction as the Bears game and the Bills game, and the handoff treats it as a question, not an answer.
DraftKings via ESPN, one book. Not the Kalshi price — that block reads our own tape.
The spread moved toward the side that won. The total fell 3 to 43.5; the game landed on 46.
Q2
Hurts found Dallas Goedert from seventeen and Dontayvion Wicks from nine inside eight minutes to turn a 3-0 deficit into a 14-3 lead. Wicks finished with two catches for seventy-three, a long of sixty-four, and the score. Philadelphia gained 318 yards on six a play.
Q4
Washington had cut it to 17-16 on a Stefon Diggs touchdown with under ten minutes to play. Hurts answered with a forty-three-yard throw to Goedert for 24-16. Goedert caught four for seventy-seven and both of his touchdowns were the ones that mattered.
Q4
Philadelphia recorded ten first downs to Washington’s twenty and held the ball for 26:40. Washington converted both fourth downs and five of fifteen third downs and ran twenty more plays. Neither team turned the ball over once — the only clean game on the Sunday slate in that respect.
Q4
Jayden Daniels found Williams with 1:01 left to make it 24-22 and Washington went for two rather than kick to stay within one score. The pass was incomplete. Daniels finished eighteen of thirty-four for 164 at 4.8 an attempt with two touchdowns; Drew Stevens had earlier had an extra point blocked, which is what turned a one-point game into a two-point one.

Washington's offensive line was a top-20 unit until Laremy Tunsil went to injured reserve; PFF now ranks it last in the league. Philadelphia answers with one of the two best lines in football and a defense that is largely the group that won the Super Bowl. The board above passes on this game because the model and the market already agree — what follows is why the game is expected to look the way it is priced, not an argument with the price.
Commanders protection · Eagles pass rush
PFF is explicit about the cause: before Tunsil's injury the Commanders sat inside the top 20. With him on injured reserve, Brandon Coleman starts at left tackle against Jalen Carter and Jordan Davis inside and Jalyx Hunt and Nolan Smith Jr. on the edges — Jonathan Greenard, the Eagles' offseason edge signing, is ruled out after missing camp with a pectoral injury. Right guard Sam Cosmi is playing well, but he is the exception on this line right now, not the rule.
Eagles protection · Commanders pass rush
Lane Johnson posted his sixth straight season with an elite pass-blocking grade and allowed almost nothing last year. The full starting five is back — Mailata, Dickerson, Jurgens, Steen, Johnson — despite the departure of longtime line coach Jeff Stoutland. Washington's answer is credible: Daron Payne and Javon Kinlaw inside, and Odafe Oweh on a nine-figure free-agent deal off the edge. No unit-wide 2026 grade for that front was found, which is why the gap here is stated and not measured.
Eagles pass offense · Commanders secondary
Brown was traded to New England in June. DeVonta Smith is the unquestioned lead receiver for the first time since his rookie year, alongside free-agent addition Marquise Brown and rookie Makai Lemon in the slot. Washington will be without Trey Amos, its intended top corner, who went to injured reserve at cutdowns — so Mike Sainristil, Amik Robertson and Rasul Douglas all project to play, with the outside pairing still unconfirmed in reporting.
Commanders pass offense · Eagles secondary
Washington signed Diggs to stop defenses rolling coverage toward McLaurin on every snap. Philadelphia's corner group is the one piece of this defense reporting is not sure about: Quinyon Mitchell is a confirmed starter and Cooper DeJean holds the slot, but the official depth chart lists Kelee Ringo beside Mitchell while beat projections have Riq Woolen outside, and one outlet flagged the group after a disappointing preseason.

Eagles run offense · Commanders run defense
Barkley came down from his 2024 pace last season but still cleared a thousand yards behind a line ranked second in the league. Washington was one of the three worst run defenses in football by yards per carry. Even a down year for Barkley individually leaves this as the most lopsided pairing on the field, and it is the one that dictates whether Washington's pass rush ever gets to pin its ears back.
Quarterbacks · play-calling
Daniels played seven games last season before elbow, knee and hamstring injuries ended his year; this is his first meaningful action since Dec. 7, 2025. He faces a Jalen Hurts offense calling plays through a new coordinator, Sean Mannion, who has never called plays in the NFL and is Hurts' seventh coordinator since 2020. That is a genuine variable on the Philadelphia side — it just is not a health variable, and Daniels' rust is.

Our margin distribution against every Kalshi spread strike listed for this game. A single line says we lean one way; the ladder says whether that is about the middle of the distribution or its tail.
This ladder is settled: the rungs above are the pre-kickoff record, not a live quote.
The starting quarterback is not confirmed, so we publish no model number on this game. The market prices are shown as they are.
Gold is our distribution, parchment is the Kalshi contract at each strike; the band between them is green where our probability is higher and purple where it is lower. We publish our number only where we have measured it to be calibrated, between 30% and 70%; rungs outside that range show the market only, and a rung where our number sits more than 30 points from a liquid market is refused outright — a gap that size is a bug until proven otherwise. A contract pays $1 if it settles YES, so a price in cents is an implied probability. Prediction markets carry risk; contracts can settle at $0.

Washington Commanders at Philadelphia Eagles is a NFC East game, the first of two meetings, with the rematch in Week 8. The model has the Eagles by 6.5 (67%) off a -1.6 to -1.8 rating gap. Division games carry weight the model does not price: head-to-head is the first tiebreaker in the NFC East, so a win here is worth more in January than the standings column shows.
The sharpest unit gap in the game runs one way: the Eagles offense grades -0.8 (24th of 32) against a Commanders defense at -2.4 (27th) — 1.7 points of separation on our scale, and the single biggest reason the line sits where it does. Going the other direction, the Commanders offense (+0.3, 18th) meets the Eagles defense (-1.2, 18th), a 1.5-point gap.
On the standings side, NFC East games are the ones that decide the tiebreakers. Head-to-head record is the first tiebreaker between two teams in the same division, and division record is the next — so the value of this result is not just the win column. They meet again in Week 8, which makes a sweep the outcome with real leverage on the NFC East race.
Season-long, the model can barely split them: 6.6 projected wins for the Eagles against 6.1 for the Commanders, favored in 9 and 7 of their 17 respectively. Two teams heading for the same neighborhood in the standings tend to produce exactly this kind of line. This game sits 17th-hardest on the Eagles' schedule and 7th-hardest on the Commanders'. It is the softest spot on the Eagles' entire schedule.
Recent history, for context only: 48 regular-season meetings since 2002, 30-18 in the Eagles' favour, plus 2 playoff games. They last met in 2025: Commanders won 24-17 in January. Over their last 4 meetings the Eagles are 2-2. It is not an input to the line — rosters turn over faster than series records do.
Does the model earn this number? In 448 of the 3266 walk-forward games it has been graded on (2013-2024, no market line used), it landed in the 65-70% range. Those favorites went 68%. The 67% on the Eagles here sits in that same band, and the history backs it.
Kalshi's KXNFLGAME-26SEP13WASPHI contract implies 50% for the Eagles against our 67% — a 17.2-point gap. No position on this game.

Washington Commanders 22, Philadelphia Eagles 24 — final, played Sunday, September 13, 2026; our pre-game model had the Eagles by 6.5 (67% to win), and the Eagles won, so that call hit. The full graded recap, with every player call resolved, is on this page.
Before kickoff our power-rating model favored the Eagles by 6.5 points, a 67% win probability over the Commanders. That number is kept on this page as the record of the call; Kalshi's KXNFLGAME-26SEP13WASPHI market has since settled, so no price on it is live.
Head-to-head is the first tiebreaker between two NFC East teams and division record is the next, so this result carries more than one game of standings weight. These two also meet in Week 8. Our model does not adjust for any of that — it prices the Eagles by 6.5 on ratings and home field alone.
The contract is KXNFLGAME-26SEP13WASPHI on Kalshi, a CFTC-regulated exchange available in most states, with sports contracts restricted in some. Eagles YES is quoted around 50c against our 67% model number. There is no point spread — you buy a yes or no contract on a team and it settles at $1 or $0.
Washington Commanders visit the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday, September 13, 2026 — a Sunday game in NFL Week 1, at Lincoln Financial Field, Philadelphia, PA.
Across all 17 games the model projects the Eagles at 6.6 wins (favored in 9) and the Commanders at 6.1 (favored in 7). This game ranks 17th-hardest on the Eagles' schedule and 7th-hardest on the Commanders', by win probability.
Kalshi prices this game as event KXNFLGAME-26SEP13WASPHI. The Eagles YES contract sits around 50c, which is an implied 50% — against our ratings line's 67%. That is a 17.2pp gap, and a contract price in cents is already a probability, so no odds conversion is needed.
This game has been played, so the Week 1 market KXNFLGAME-26SEP13WASPHI has settled — there is no position left to take on it. While it was open it traded as an event contract rather than a point spread: Kalshi is a CFTC-regulated exchange available in most states, with sports contracts restricted in some, you bought a YES or NO contract on a team between 1c and 99c, and it settled at $1 or $0, so the price paid was the break-even probability. Kalshi lists the next week's games on the same terms.
68% of the time. Over 3266 walk-forward games from 2013-2024 — trained only on prior seasons, no market line as an input — the model put a team in the 65-70% range 448 times, and those teams won 68% of them. The Eagles at 67% over the Commanders sit in that band, off a 6.5-point model line. Straight-up across all 3266 graded games the model picked winners at 59.6%, with a Brier score of 0.236 against 0.25 for a coin flip.
