Eagles vs. Commanders Week 11 Game Preview and Predictions

Philadelphia Eagles

With a 9-1 record, the Philadelphia Eagles lead the NFC East and the entire NFL. They've won eight games in a row since losing to the Dallas Cowboys in Week 6 and have quickly become one of the favorites in the NFC. Led by quarterback Jalen Hurts, the Eagles' offense has been firing on all cylinders. DeVonta Smith, A.J. Brown, and Dallas Goedert have formed a formidable trio that is challenging defenses. Defensively, the Eagles are among the league's best, with a strong pass rush and a secondary that's been opportunistic with interceptions.

Washington Commanders

Although the Washington Commanders' record is 4-5, they're still in the running for a wild-card spot, but they need to start winning consistently. After a 1-4 start, the Commanders won three of their last four. Taylor Heinicke is giving Washington a solid performance at the quarterback position, but he'll have to prove he can lead the Commanders on a playoff run. The Commanders' defense has been one of the league's most impressive defenses, with Montez Sweat, Daron Payne, and Jonathan Allen generating significant pressure in the pass rush.
