Philadelphia Eagles Summary
Full Transcript
The Philadelphia Eagles clinched their second consecutive NFC East title with a 29-18 victory over the Washington Commanders. This win marks the first time since 2004 that a team has repeated as NFC East champions.
Key performances included Saquon Barkley, who rushed for 132 yards and scored a touchdown, while quarterback Jalen Hurts threw two touchdown passes. However, the game was marred by a brawl in the fourth quarter, which led to three player ejections after Barkley extended the lead with a two-point conversion.
Despite some mistakes throughout the game, the Eagles secured their 14th overall NFC East title and effectively ended the Dallas Cowboys' playoff hopes, marking a significant moment in the division as the Cowboys' Super Bowl drought has now reached thirty years.
As the Eagles look ahead to the playoffs, they will focus on refining their performance and possibly resting key players as they aim to defend their Super Bowl title in January.
