The Washington Football Team dropped its fourth consecutive game of the season Sunday with a 20-16 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles at FedEx Field. It was an admirable performance from a Washington team that remains shorthanded.
Unfortunately for the WFT, they fell to 6-10, and the loss officially eliminated them from playoff contention.
Now, Washington faces the last-place New York Giants in a rematch from Week 2. Washington is a touchdown favorite over the Giants in a game that means nothing outside of draft positioning.
So, after its latest loss, where did Washington land in the latest USA TODAY NFL power rankings?
Washington drops two positions to No. 23 entering Week 18. Here’s what Nate Davis had to say about the WFT.
25. Washington (23): As if you don’t know there was a lot of work ahead of this team, it then becomes widely apparent that their erector set stadium is also falling apart.
It seems everyone has a FedEx Field joke these days. Davis is referring to the guardrail collapsing and several fans nearly landing on Philadelphia quarterback Jalen Hurts as he made his way into the locker room.
