The Philadelphia Eagles set the stage for a dramatic closing stretch of the NFC East with a 28-13 victory over Washington on Monday at Lincoln Financial Field.
By extending their winning streak to two, the defending Super Bowl champions pulled even with Washington at 6-6 and within one game of the 7-5 Dallas Cowboys for the division lead. Washington is trending in the wrong direction without the injured Alex Smith—and now Colt McCoy—and dropped its third straight.
ESPN's Lisa Salters reported on the broadcast McCoy suffered a fractured right fibula during Monday's loss.
Carson Wentz led the way for Philadelphia at 27-of-39 for 306 yards, two touchdowns and one interception, while Adrian Peterson countered with 98 rushing yards and a score for the visitors.
