Eagles vs. Commanders: How to watch, TV schedule, odds, and more

The Philadelphia Eagles (6-1) don’t have many early games this season, but in Week 8 against the Washington Commanders (3-4), they’ll kick off at 1:00 PM.

NFC East teams started off really strong at the beginning of the season, but since then, some have derailed a bit. The Giants (2-5) sit firmly at the bottom of the division, and have done nothing this season to indicate they’ll move from that spot. The Commanders (3-4) are at No. 3, but lost to the Giants last week in a game that infuriated the players. The Cowboys (4-2) have the most potential to jump the Eagles for the top spot, but they’ve displayed (many) cracks in their armor heading into the second-half of the season.

The Eagles are coming off an absolutely dynamic win over the Dolphins, where the offense was able to get into the endzone several times and limited turnovers to two. Philly’s defense did the kelly green uniforms proud with a performance that limited Miami’s No. 1-ranked run game and allowed them to pass rush like crazy.

Against some elite receivers — Cooper Kupp, Tyreek Hill — the Eagles secondary has struggled at times, but they traded for safety Kevin Byard earlier in the week, a move that moves the group up to one of the best in the league. The young guys have proven that they can come in and be effective, like Eli Ricks, but adding some veteran experience is only going to help.

Still, the Commanders had the Eagles number just a few weeks ago, forcing the game into overtime. Philly’s been able to win a lot of different ways this season, and they’ll need to find ways to put together a complete game like they did in Week 7, consistently.

Here’s everything you need to know about how to watch the game.
