The NFC is one of the best divisions in football, and Thursday night in Philadelphia will offer an old-school feel.
The Eagles are 7-2 after dominating the Cowboys (34-6) on Sunday, while Washington dropped to 7-3 and second place in the division after a 28-27 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers. The winner of Thursday’s game on Amazon will leave one team in first place and the other looking to regroup quickly.
Washington head coach Dan Quinn addressed the media on Monday and was fired up for the massive matchup.
