STREAKS, STATS AND NOTES - Chance of heavy rain in area Sunday. ... Eagles QB Sam Bradford has four INTs and 72.5 passer rating. ... After rushing for only 21 yards on 11 carries through first two games, Eagles RB DeMarco Murray missed Week 3, and his status for Sunday is uncertain. ... RB-PR Darren Sproles scored once on punt return and once on run last week. Redskins' special teams have had problems, so look for P Tress Way to kick away from Sproles. ... WR Jordan Matthews was only Eagles wideout to catch pass in Week 3. His first two NFL TDs came against Redskins last season. ... Redskins have only allowed four sacks, and Eagles' defense only has produced five sacks. ... Since start of 2014, Eagles LB Connor Barwin tops NFC with 16 1-2 sacks. He has two this season. ... Redskins QB Kirk Cousins has four INTs, two apiece in Washington's two losses. ... Cousins' most yards passing in game was 427 against Eagles last season. ... Redskins FB Darrel Young has four TDs (two running, two catching) in last three games against Eagles. ... Since 2013, WR Pierre Garcon's 198 catches are most in NFC. ... TE Jordan Reed leads Redskins with 19 catches. ... Redskins could be without starting CBs DeAngelo Hall and Chris Culliver because of injuries. ... Fantasy Tip: Looking for sleeper? Try Redskins rookie WR Jamison Crowder, who had six catches last week. Last time he faced Washington, Eagles TE Zach Ertz caught career-best 15 catches for 115 yards.
