It’s time for some turkey as the NFL moves into Thanksgiving week. On Thursday, we’ll start with a triple header and then finish off the action on Sunday.

The best bet of the week has to be the Philadelphia Eagles, who are facing off with the hapless Washington Redskins. The Redskins are really beat up at this point and the Eagles, who have been inconsistent at times, should be able to take advantage.

The Redskins will be without three members of their offensive line, including Chris Samuels, Randy Thomas and Chad Rinehart. They’ll also be without their top two starting running backs (Clinton Portis and Ladell Betts) and their starting tight end (Chris Cooley).

Beyond that, the Redskins may also be without cornerback DeAngelo Hall, who has a mild MCL sprain, and defensive tackle Albert Haynesworth, who is recovering from a sprained ankle.

The Eagles may be a team that rides the roller coaster, but they are more than capable of taking advantage of a toothless Redskins team.

The Redskins offense can barely muster enough points when everyone is healthy and now they may have to get in a scoring match without many of their regularly. Without a running game and without much of a defense on the Redskins side, look for the Eagles to run up the score in this game and cover the nine-point spread rather easily.
