A win for the Redskins tonight against the Eagles, and they're division champs. A loss? And Philadelphia is in the driver's seat heading into the final week of the regular season.

The Redskins won the opening coin toss here at Lincoln Financial Field, and elected to defer to the second half. So the opening kickoff headed the Eagles' way, which was a touchback.

Things didn't start well for the Washington defense, which allowed an 18-yard pass on the first play from scrimmage and watched Philadelphia confidently drive into their territory from there.
