Redskins down Eagles to punch playoff ticket
The Washington Redskins flopped in their last bid to take control of the NFC East, but they can wrap up the division title with a victory at the visiting Philadelphia Eagles on Saturday night.

Entering this season, coach Jay Gruden knew that Cousins, clearly far ahead of Griffin in the offense, should start. “I’m going to continue to work as hard as I can and show up early to work and leave late at night”. “There were some moments in this game where we could have burrowed our head, but it was great to get a victory”.
“Kirk’s been developing”, wide receiver DeSean Jackson said.
“Since day one, everybody kind of doubted this team”, Jackson said.
The Eagles fell to 6-9 and will miss the postseason for the second time in three years under coach Chip Kelly.
The Eagles’ 38-24 loss to the Washington Redskins was reflective of yet Kelly’s front office moves over the last couple of years have blown up in his face. “I wanted to make good on it, and now with a division title I think we have”.
“You look at the roster and you look at every guy in this locker room and we’ve got guys who can play, but for whatever reason, as a cohesive unit, we’re not that good”, said safety Malcolm Jenkins. The soap opera that is the Eagles’ running game continued as marquee free-agent acquisition DeMarco Murray had a season-low two carries for three yards and has been limited to 91 yards over the past four games.
From there, it was all Washington.
But Murray then dropped a pitch, Hall picked it up and ran it back for a 30-17 lead late in the third quarter.
Gruden said he has not decided how much, or even whether, to play starters such as Cousins in Week 17 at the Dallas Cowboys (4-11) in a game that means zero in the standings to either team. “It’s a big accomplishment”. As a team, we have to make sure that we hang together and take all the accountability that we need.
“I want to go into the offseason with the same quarterback”, Ertz told reporters after the loss.
Bradford threw for 380 yards and one touchdown. It would’ve been a 60-yard TD.
Manning denies HGH report: Peyton Manning strongly denied a report set to air on Al-Jazeera that contends the Denver Broncos quarterback received human growth hormone through his wife during his recovery from neck fusion surgeries in 2011 in Indianapolis.
Cousins finished with 364 yards passing and four touchdowns.
The 27-year-old quarterback hit tight end Jordan Reed on scoring passes of 22 and 12 yards in the first quarter. Bradford overthrew a diving and wide open Ertz for what would have been a 60-yard score.
“I can’t take my eyes off it”, Murray said. “That’s not my choice”.
They missed another opportunity on the following series when Nelson Agholor dropped a 28-yard TD pass and settled for Caleb Sturgis’ 34-yard field goal that cut it to 13-10.
NOTES: Eagles CB Byron Maxwell and DT Bennie Logan were inactives because of injury and were replaced by E.J. Biggers and Beau Allen….
Thomas was one of the last pieces general manager Scot McCloughan signed off the streets this season and evolved into a key contributor, following players such as cornerback Will Blackmon and inside linebacker Mason Foster.

In 2012, the Washington Redskins thought that they had it all figured out. Since Week 7, Cousins has led the team to a 6-3 record, while throwing for 19 touchdowns with just three interceptions. “YOU LIKE THAT!” As a mater of fact, you absolutely love that, being Kirk Cousins has led the Redskins into the playoffs. Washington WR DeSean Jackson spent his first six seasons with the Eagles, including a Pro Bowl year in 2013….
