The Eagles lost 27–10 to the Washington Commanders at Northwest Stadium on Sunday night, November 1, 2026. Philadelphia led 10–0 before Washington scored the game’s remaining 27 points. The defeat left the Eagles 2–6 with six consecutive losses.

The teams had opened the season against each other in Philadelphia, where the Eagles won 24–22 on September 13. Sunday’s return meeting produced the opposite result. An early defensive takeaway gave Philadelphia a short field, but the offense did not add to its first-quarter total.

The lead disappeared before halftime

Jake Elliott’s 40-yard field goal opened the scoring. After Zack Baun recovered a fumble forced by Andrew Mukuba at Washington’s 26-yard line, Saquon Barkley took a direct snap for a 3-yard touchdown. With the extra point, Philadelphia led 10–0 with 4:32 left in the first quarter.

Washington answered with a field goal before the quarter ended, then a Stefon Diggs touchdown and another field goal in the second quarter. The halftime score was 13–10 to Washington. The official game center records Philadelphia’s quarter scores as 10, 0, 0, 0 and Washington’s as 3, 10, 3, 11, showing that the early lead was Philadelphia’s last scoring spell.

Second-half chances ended without points

With Philadelphia trailing 13–10 late in the third quarter, Tanner McKee lost a fumble at Washington’s 37-yard line. Washington recovered and later added a field goal to make it 16–10. In the fourth quarter, consecutive false starts pushed back another Eagles drive before Elliott’s 41-yard attempt struck the left upright and missed.

Those sequences sit alongside a difficult offensive stat line. McKee completed 23 of 34 passes for 212 yards, with no touchdown pass, one interception and five sacks; Barkley ran 13 times for 30 yards and the early touchdown. Philadelphia held the ball for 33:31, longer than Washington, but that possession did not produce a score after the first quarter.

Next: the Giants in Philadelphia on November 8

The Eagles’ official schedule next lists the New York Giants at Lincoln Financial Field on Sunday, November 8, at 1 pm EST. That is the scheduled US Eastern time. The team’s schedule and the November 1 game center, linked below, provide separate places to check the next fixture and the completed game’s scoring and statistics.

For the Giants game, the useful follow-up is whether Philadelphia can turn its offensive possessions into points beyond the opening quarter. Sunday’s lost fumble and missed field goal identify specific opportunities that went unfinished; they do not explain every part of a sixth straight defeat. The 27–10 result is settled, while the next game’s outcome remains open.
