Eagles vs Commanders Ends in Chaos After Late-Game Brawl and Division-Clinching Win
So if you’re catching up on NFL scores from last night, the Eagles–Commanders game wasn’t just another divisional matchup. It turned into one of those games people will remember for the fight as much as the final score. Philadelphia walked away with a 29–18 win on Saturday night, but the fourth quarter was completely overshadowed by a heated brawl that led to three players being ejected.
By the time things boiled over, the Eagles were already in control. Philadelphia had just converted a two-point attempt, pushing their lead to 19 points with less than five minutes left. That moment seemed to flip a switch. What started as routine post-play contact quickly escalated into pushing, shoving, and a lot of trash talk. Flags were thrown everywhere as officials scrambled to separate players from both sidelines.

Eventually, order was restored, but not before Washington’s Javon Kinlaw and Quan Martin, along with Eagles offensive lineman Tyler Steen, were ejected for unnecessary roughness. Multiple penalties were assessed, and the game had to pause while referees sorted through the chaos. Veterans like Bobby Wagner were seen stepping in, trying to calm things down and pull teammates away before it got even worse.
Once play resumed, the outcome was never really in doubt. The Eagles closed things out and secured the 29–18 victory, which also clinched their second straight NFC East title. That achievement alone made the night historic, as Philadelphia became the first team since the early 2000s to repeat as division champions. Still, the celebration felt muted in the moment, with the brawl lingering in everyone’s mind.
Saquon Barkley played a major role in the win, especially in the second half, where his running style shifted into a more physical, angry tone. His efforts helped wear down the Commanders’ defense and kept the clock moving late. Jalen Hurts managed the game effectively, and the Eagles’ offense did enough to keep Washington from mounting any serious comeback.
From Washington’s side, frustration was clearly visible. The game had slipped away, and emotions boiled over at the worst possible time. While the fight didn’t change the result, it did add another chapter to an already intense rivalry.
In the end, the scoreboard shows a solid Eagles win and another division banner secured. But when people talk about this game, the late-night brawl, the ejections, and the raw emotion on the field will probably be remembered just as much as the score itself.
