Week 5 was bad for the NFC East.
Dallas lost at home on Thursday.
They lost to a team that had not won a game.
That team used a rookie quarterback who was not drafted.
On Sunday, the Eagles and Commanders both lost or tied.
They made bad choices at the end of their games.
The Eagles lost 19-17 to Jacksonville in London.
The Eagles had many hurt players.
Jake Elliott kicked a 48-yard field goal with 8 seconds left.
This put Philadelphia ahead.
The Jaguars had no timeouts.
So the Eagles should have kicked the ball into the end zone.
Instead, Elliott kept the ball in play.
Ameer Abdullah ran it back 53 yards to the Philadelphia 39.
Then Cam Little made a 57-yard field goal to win.
Eagles coach Nick Sirianni said he lost the game for his team.
He said it was all his fault.
The Eagles also made mistakes on the drive before that kick.
There were 25 seconds left.
They had a first down at the Jaguars 34.
Jalen Hurts threw the ball and did not complete it.
This stopped the clock.
Rookie Makai Lemon later ran out of bounds instead of going down.
This saved Jacksonville's last timeout.
Hurts said he respects the play calls.
He said he does not question his coaches in public.
The Eagles have now lost three games in a row.
This is the first time since 2021.
In Washington, the Commanders tied the Giants.
They ran out of time in field-goal range.
Jayden Daniels drove Washington to the Giants 26.
But the team huddled instead of spiking the ball.
Daniels ran and was tackled.
Washington had no time left for a kick.
Coach Dan Quinn took the blame.
He said the order of plays had to come from him.
The Giants also wasted two chances to win in overtime.
