OFFENSE

Notes:

Jason Peters reportedly pulled himself from the game early when Washington took a big lead.

Jordan Matthews played the most snaps of any offensive skill player.

Darren Sproles played the most snaps of any running back. Then it Kenjon Barner over Ryan Mathews. DeMarco Murray only played 15 snaps and he actually led the Birds in rushing with 27 yards and one touchdown on five carries. How about that?

Seyi Ajirotutu was out so Jonathan Krause was active in his place.

DEFENSE

Notes:

E.J. Biggers got a lot of playing time with Byron Maxwell out due to injury. He actually played reasonably well. Jaylen Watkins also got some snaps in nickel and dime with Biggers shifting to the slot.

Beau Allen got the start at nose tackle with Bennie Logan out.

Vinny Curry played more snaps than Taylor Hart. Brandon Bair was active for the first time in a long time.

SPECIAL TEAMS

Notes:

Marcus Smith didn't play a single snap on defense, but heavily contributed on special teams. So there's that.
