The Philadelphia Eagles missed the playoffs for the first time in four seasons a year ago, and their four-win finish was the team's worst since the 2012 campaign. Philadelphia lost seven of its final eight games and the Eagles' front office reacted by firing Super Bowl-winning head coach Doug Pederson after five seasons and trading Carson Wentz. The Eagles are now rebuilding behind second-year quarterback Jalen Hurts, who showed plenty of promise late last season, and new head coach Nick Sirianni, who last served as the offensive coordinator for the Colts. William Hill Sportsbook has pegged Philadelphia for seven victories, among the lowest 2021 NFL win totals.

Meanwhile, the New York Giants are coming off their fourth consecutive losing season and have made just one playoff appearance with a loss since they won Super Bowl XLVI. The Giants lost their first five games last year, but bolstered their offense heading into 2021 by adding veteran Kenny Golladay and rookie Kadarius Toney at wide receiver. The latest 2021 NFL odds list the over-under for New York's total wins at seven.

Top 2021 NFL win total predictions

White says you should go under 8.0 wins for the Washington Football Team. Last year's 7-9 team was the best in a soft NFC East, becoming only the third team to win a division with a losing record in a full season. Washington has not won a postseason game since 2005, but last year became the first NFL team to make the playoffs after losing seven of their first nine games.

Washington had a decisive winning record with NFL Comeback Player of the Year Alex Smith at quarterback, but has now moved on to journeyman Ryan Fitzpatrick. Washington had the second-best defense in the league last season and further bolstered the unit by adding Kentucky linebacker Jamin Davis in the first round of the 2021 NFL Draft. Other teams in the division are looking better, however, and Washington has a very challenging schedule ahead.

"Washington went 5-1 with Alex Smith at QB and 2-8 with Dwayne Haskins and Kyle Allen, which is a good summation of the two sides of the Ryan Fitzpatrick Experience, which is a week-to-week roller coaster. Washington just barely edged Philadelphia for the second-lowest point total in the NFC," White told SportsLine.
