[max]

Not only did the Eagles lose their Week 18 game at New York to the Giants, 28-14, in dramatic fashion, but Philadelphia also lost star wide receiver AJ Brown to a knee injury. The Eagles had a chance to win the NFC East division with a win against the Giants combined with a loss by the Dallas Cowboys to the Washington Commanders last Sunday.
