STACKED’s take

Negative signalMatchup

Barkley has rushed for 146–150 yards in recent Commanders matchups; Washington's weak run defense remains a concern.

Barkley has dominated the Commanders in recent matchups with 26 rushes for 146 yards and 2 TDs, 29 carries for 150 yards and 2 TDs, 15 carries for 118 yards and 3 TDs, and 21 carries for 132 yards and 1 TD across four games since joining the Eagles. The source notes Washington's defense has struggled with gap control and poor tackling in the linebacker room, making stopping Barkley's rushing attack critical to the Week 1 matchup; however, the Commanders ranked 30th in run defense last season, 29th in 2024, and 27th in 2023, suggesting continued vulnerability.
