Saquon Barkley ran for 132 yards and a touchdown, and the Philadelphia Eagles clinched their second straight NFC East title with a 29-18 win over the Washington Commanders in Landover, Md. The Eagles (10-5) became the first team to repeat as NFC East champions since 2004. Barkley averaged 6.3 yards on 21 carries and went over 1,000 yards rushing for the fifth time in his career. On first-and-10 from the 12, Barkley went up the middle and appeared to be stopped around the five, but broke two tackles and scored, pushing the lead to 21-10. Barkley ripped off a 48-yard run and, two plays later, Tank Bigsby ran left for a 22-yard score with 4:26 remaining.
