We regret to inform you that it's time to believe in the Eagles again.
They're 8-2. They look better every week. They were good enough to survive about 15 missed kicks from Jake Elliott. And there's no team in the NFC that looks particularly dominant. Maybe the Lions?
Some highlights and reactions from Thursday night's 26-18 victory over Washington:
Eagles have won 6 straight.

Saquon leads the NFL w most 100 yd games from scrimmage.
7-0 when AJ Brown plays.
Quinyon Mitchell and Cooper DeJean have been rookie stars.
Zack Baun has thrived behind Jordan Davis & Jalen Carter.
8-2. #1 in the NFC East.#FlyEaglesFly
It was great to see Saquon Barkley get a couple well-deserved touchdowns this week. He has somehow been tackled inside the two yard line about a dozen times this season.
Like this if you love Saquon Barkley.

There's something oddly comforting about AJ Brown's lack of TDs. Because the Eagles are 8-2 without them and there will definitely be a few games where he explodes.
AJ Brown having 2 TDs on the season is wild to me

Coop and Blankenship wearing the matching "exciting whites" T-shirt is the greatest thing of all time.

It's reasonable to still have doubts about your Philadelphia Eagles, but 8-2 is 8-2.
Enjoy this one for a while. The Birds will play their next game on November 24, in LA against the Rams.
