Washington Redskins Commit Four Turnovers, Drop Opener To Philadelphia Eagles 30-17
The Washington Redskins opened their 2017-18 season Sunday afternoon against the Philadelphia Eagles. The Redskins came into the game riding the coattails of a five-game winning streak against the Eagles including sweeping their long-standing rival the last two seasons. A sixth straight victory was not to be as Washington struggled to move the ball on offense against a much-improved Jim Schwartz-coached Philadelphia defense that was directed at causing issues for Redskins quarterback Kirk Cousins.
