The Eagles (12-3) had an opportunity to clinch the NFC East last week with a win over the Washington Commanders but a go-ahead touchdown from Washington with six seconds remaining ended those chances. The Birds can still clinch the division with a win on Sunday as they host the Dallas Cowboys (7-8) in a Week 17 matchup at Lincoln Financial Field.

Jalen Hurts may sit out a potential NFC East clincher against Dallas because of the lingering effects of a concussion. The Eagles could also just rest Hurts to play it safe -- even if he’s medically cleared ahead of Sunday’s game -- and protect their franchise QB from additional injury over the final two games.

They can secure both a wild card bid or a bid as the NFC East division champion. Of course, they'll need some help for that to happen. Despite being a four-win team in 2023, the Commanders currently have a 10-5 record with two regular season games remaining.
