The Washington Football Team looks to clinch the NFC East title against the Philadelphia Eagles.

Win or go home. It is that simple for the Washington Football Team. With a win against the Eagles, the Washington Football Team clinches the NFC East. With a loss against the Eagles, Washington’s season is over.

Washington is also attempting to complete a sweep of the Eagles. They beat the Eagles 27-17 in Week 1 at FedEx Field.

The Eagles are already eliminated, following their Week 16 loss to the Dallas Cowboys. They have virtually nothing on paper to play for. However, with a coach on the hot seat and a quarterback still trying to prove himself, I expect the Eagles to give their best effort. They will not roll over.

The game against the Eagles, win or lose, will be good for the Washington Football Team. The young, core pieces of the team will get to experience a high stakes game that will hopefully be beneficial in the future. This game is essentially a playoff game.

The Washington Football Team can complete a worst-to-first season in the NFC East if they can win on Sunday night. Here are three keys to the Washington Football Team clinching the NFC East with a win against the Eagles.
