The Philadelphia Eagles are the defending Super Bowl champions and have a loaded schedule of opponents. One would think Philadelphia would be in the conversation for the most standalone games on the 2025 schedule.
Turns out, the Eagles don’t have the most standalone games in their division. Philadelphia isn’t even in the top two in the NFC East in terms of standalone games.
The Washington Commanders and Dallas Cowboys lead the way in standalone games in 2025 with eight, as the NFC East rivals are tied with the Kansas City Chiefs for the most standalone games in the league. The Chiefs and Cowboys are typical ratings draws, so it wasn’t surprising to see these teams at the top of the league for standalone games. The Eagles, by the way, have seven standalone games.
The Commanders are the team the league is banking on having a good season (think the New York Jets over the past two years). Hard to fault the NFL for thinking this way, given the Commanders finished 12-5 in Jayden Daniels‘ rookie season and reached the NFC Championship Game. Washington is expected to be one of the NFC teams to compete for a Super Bowl this season, as Daniels should draw eyeballs to the television in every game he plays.
So what qualifies as a standalone game in NFL? These are the qualifications:
- Prime-time games on Thursday, Friday, Sunday and Monday nights
- International games
- Thanksgiving and Christmas games
- Late-season Saturday games
The Commanders are scheduled for eight of these standalone games in 2025, and here they are:
Here is how many standalone games each team has in the 2025 season:

We saw an overturned goal, a double-doink miss about two seconds before the second intermission from Carolina’s Seth Jarvis, near misses on both sides and a few different chaotic sequences that pushed Andersen into the net.

2025 PGA Championship takeaways: Bryson DeChambeau banging along as mud balls irk struggling stars in Round 1
Getty Images CHARLOTTE -- There they stood in the middle of the fairway. The top two Americans in the game were easing into their first rounds of the 107th PGA Championship before, well, the mud hit the fan. It wasn't the play of a native statesman near the top of the leaderboard nor how a major championship labeled as a three-horse race opened wide Thursday at Quail Hollow Club that was the topic of conversation. Rather, it was the organic matter itself.There was nothing natural about the shots they hit. Both Scottie Scheffler and Xander Schauffele were befuddled (at best) when their second shots veered left and into the water at the onset of The Green Mile. Scheffler peered at his bagman, Ted Scott, with a fit of rage boiling under the surface, while Schauffele put his hand over his […]
