Before Sunday’s huge NFC East contest, Commanders running back Brian Robinson caused controversy when he said Washington “believes they’re a better team” than Philadelphia.
Early in the first quarter, the Eagles were up 7-0, and if they went up 14-0, Robinson would have played a significant role in the deficit. With the Commanders trying to answer a Saquon Barkley touchdown run, Robinson was stripped by Jalen Carter and fumbled in Washington territory.
