November 14, 2022: The Commanders force four turnovers and end the 8-0 Eagles’ unbeaten start, 32-21

On November 14, 2022, the Philadelphia Eagles were 8-0 for the first time in franchise history. The Washington Commanders came to Lincoln Financial Field on a Monday night as double-digit underdogs and won 32-21.

Washington ran 81 plays to Philadelphia’s 47 and held the ball for 40 minutes and 24 seconds. In the first half alone, the Commanders converted 9 of 12 third downs. Joey Slye made all four of his field goal tries, including kicks of 55 and 58 yards.

The Eagles had turned the ball over three times in their first eight games. That night they lost three fumbles and threw an interception, as a pass off A.J. Brown’s hands was picked by Darrick Forrest.

With Philadelphia down 23-21, Jamin Davis pulled Dallas Goedert’s face mask and the ball came loose. No flag was thrown. “We didn’t see a face mask on the field,” referee Alex Kemp said. The league later fined Davis $10,609, and Goedert hurt his shoulder on the play.

“We started 8-0 together, we lost this game together, we’re going to move on together,” Nick Sirianni said. The Eagles won their next five and reached Super Bowl LVII. This Sunday night they visit Washington at 2-5, on a five-game losing streak.
