The Washington Commanders entered a pivotal game against the Philadelphia Eagles as the underdogs, facing a team riding a remarkable 10-game winning streak. After overcoming a midseason slump with a recent win against the Titans, the Commanders had to navigate injuries impacting their offensive lineup. Notably, center Tyler Biadasz's return was crucial to their performance after previous struggles with sacks. Both teams were vying for playoff spots, intensifying the competition. However, Washington's defense struggled with fourth-quarter points, facing off against an Eagles team that excelled in that phase.
For the first time in a while, the Commanders entered a game as the underdog - in this case, the Eagles were favored by 3.5 points as visitors to Northwest Stadium in Landover.
Against the Saints, the Commanders offense was trying to adjust for the loss of RB Austin Ekeler (concussion) and WR Noah Brown (internal injury), the two leading receivers behind Terry McLaurin.
