It wasn’t always pretty, but it’s officially time to break out the hats and t-shirts! The Philadelphia Eagles (10-5) traveled to a chilly Landover and took care of business, defeating the Washington Commanders 29-18 to clinch their second consecutive NFC East title—the first time the Birds have repeated as division champs since the legendary 2001–2004 run!
In this celebratory episode, we break down:
- The Clinch: We react to the scene at Northwest Stadium as Nick Sirianni and the Birds celebrated a hard-fought division title after surviving that mid-season three-game skid.
- Hurts & Saquon Lead the Way: Jalen Hurts was the definition of "steady," going 22-of-30 for 185 yards and two touchdowns with zero turnovers. Meanwhile, Saquon Barkley was a monster on the ground, racking up 132 yards and a touchdown. We also discuss the "extracurriculars"—that late-game brawl after Saquon’s 2-point conversion that proved this rivalry still has plenty of heat!
- The Defensive Masterclass: Vic Fangio’s unit continues to stifle opponents. We highlight Brandon Graham’s age-defying sack and the roar of "Cooooop!" that filled the stadium after Cooper DeJean’s clutch interception.
- The "Ugly" Side of Victory: It wasn't all perfect. We look at Jake Elliott’s uncharacteristic night (three missed field goals!) and the injury concern for Nakobe Dean, who left early with a hamstring issue.
- Playoff Picture: With the division locked up, the focus shifts to the final two games. Can the Eagles chase down the #1 seed, or is it time to start resting the starters?
Turn up the volume, Eagles fans—the East still runs through Philadelphia!
