The Washington Commanders scored 27 straight points to beat the Philadelphia Eagles 27-10 on Sunday night, ProFootballTalk and the Associated Press report.
Philadelphia took a 10-0 lead in the first quarter. Saquon Barkley ran for a 3-yard touchdown. But Washington's defense shut out the Eagles the rest of the way, the outlets report.
Quarterback Jayden Daniels threw for 217 yards and a touchdown. It was his first win as a starter since he beat the Los Angeles Chargers on October 5, 2025, the AP reports. "It's a blessing from God just to go out there," Daniels said. He pointed to "different injuries and a lot of different setbacks."
Daniels threw an 8-yard touchdown pass to Stefon Diggs that tied the game in the second quarter. Kicker Drew Stevens made four field goals, including one from 56 yards.
Washington's defense kept up pressure on Eagles quarterback Tanner McKee, who was starting in place of the injured Jalen Hurts. Barkley was held to 30 yards on 13 carries.
The loss was the Eagles' sixth in a row. It is their first six-game losing streak since 2012, ProFootballTalk reports. It is also the first time since 1999 that the team has started a season 2-6.
"I know nobody feels sorry for us," Eagles coach Nick Sirianni said, according to the AP. Barkley said, "We're not the big bad Eagles anymore."
The Commanders are now 2-4-1 and host the Los Angeles Rams next. The Eagles host the New York Giants.
