It’s time for the rematch. In Week 8, the NFC East division-leading Philadelphia Eagles make the trip down I-95 to face the Washington Commanders at FedEx Field. The two longtime rivals met in Week 4, with Washington taking Philadelphia to overtime before losing 34-31.
The Eagles (6-1) have lost just once this season, as the New York Jets handed them their first loss in Week 6. Meanwhile, Washington (3-4) enters Week 8, having lost two in a row and four of its last five.
Philadelphia wide receiver A.J. Brown torched the Commanders for 175 yards and two touchdowns in Week 4. Brown has a streak of five consecutive games with 125 receiving yards or more, tying an NFL record. Will Washington have an answer for Brown this time around?
