The Philadelphia Eagles clinched a playoff spot in Week 14, but a win and help in Week 15 could seal the deal for a home playoff game. They have been on a roll and won nine straight games, but they face a tough test in this game. Pittsburgh Steelers, current No. 3 seed in the AFC.
Here's how the Eagles could clinch the division this week.
Eagles NFC East championship scenario
If Philadelphia wins 12 games and the Commanders drop to six, that's all she wrote. The best Washington can achieve would be 11-6, behind the Eagles, who have 12 wins. The two teams will play next weekend, which could have big implications.
- Eagles won, Commanders lost.
Philadelphia is a 5.5-point favorite against the Steelers this weekend, while the Commanders are a 7.5-point favorite against the New Orleans Saints. Both by FanDuel Sportsbook.
