It wasn’t a Roman Reigns-level winning streak. Still, the Philadelphia Eagles went almost a full calendar year without suffering a regular season loss, which should be applauded.
The Birds are now 8-1 after a shocking 32-21 loss to the Commanders that saw every bad scenario take place, and yet Philadelphia was still in a position to win with under two minutes left in regulation.
Four turnovers and a lackluster performance on defense took the Eagles out of the historic 17-0 sweepstakes, but all is not lost for a team firmly in control of their own destiny.
The Week 11 NFL power rankings are out, and even after a loss, several experts have the Eagles as the top team in the league, with no ranking lower than third overall.
