In a dominating performance, the Philadelphia Eagles topped the Washington Commanders 28-0 in Week 1 of the 2026 season. With a strong start to the campaign, the Eagles showcased their potential as contenders while the Commanders struggled to find their footing. Kirk Cousins led the charge for Philadelphia, throwing for two touchdowns and effectively managing the game. Saquon Barkley was a dual-threat, racking up an impressive 129 rushing yards and 148 receiving yards, making him a nightmare for the Commanders' defense. His versatility was key in keeping the Eagles' offense on track and finding the end zone. Defensively, the Eagles were relentless, with Devonte Wyatt securing two sacks and Antoine Winfield Jr. leading the team with six tackles. The turning point came in the second quarter when the Eagles' defense forced a crucial turnover, setting up a touchdown that pushed their lead to three scores. Washington's inability to respond offensively sealed their fate, as Philadelphia's defense kept them off the board throughout the game.
