Week 11 is heating up with the Eagles and Commanders set to clash at Lincoln Financial Field on November 14. The Eagles are leading the NFC East with a impressive 7-2 record, while the Commanders are close behind at 7-3. But the real question on everyone's mind: will the weather play a role?
Looking at the forecast, fans should expect some rain. Clouds are expected to cover 96% of the sky, with temperatures around 46°F, feeling more like 43°F. Visibility might be a bit tricky at just 10 meters. But don't worry about the wind; it's only blowing at 6 mph from the northeast, with gusts up to 10 mph. The humidity, however, will be high, ranging from 65% to 71%.
The stadium's unique roof design will protect fans and officials from the rain, but it's still a good idea to come prepared with waterproof clothing. The turf at Lincoln Financial Field is a hybrid grass type that handles rain well. Daily maintenance ensures any slip-ups are minimal. So, the game should go on as planned.
If you can't make it to the stadium, you can catch the game on Amazon Prime Video at 8:15 PM ET or stream it for free on Fubo. The excitement is building for this divisional battle.
Now, let's talk quarterbacks. Both teams have young stars. Jalen Hurts has led the Eagles to the playoffs for three straight seasons, although they haven't made it to the Super Bowl yet. This season, he's completing 69. 8% of his passes for 1, 976 yards, with 12 touchdowns and 5 interceptions.
On the other side, rookie Jayden Daniels is making waves. He's completing 68. 7% of his passes for 2, 147 yards, with 9 touchdowns and 2 interceptions. While Hurts has the experience, Daniels brings a fresh skill set to the table. This game is going to be a tough one to call.
