In 2008, a game between the Philadelphia Eagles and Cincinnati Bengals ended in a 13-13 tie, officially revealing to quarterback Donovan McNabb that NFL games can end without a winner. Twelve years later, the two teams tied once again. Neither rookie Joe Burrow nor veteran Carson Wentz could lead their respective teams to a win due to constant errors and sloppy plays. With the tie, the Bengals dropped to 0-3-2 against the Eagles in their past five games.
With the news of the tie, the fans responded with several jokes and genuine surprise. Several expressed that the two organizations should be ashamed due to the sloppy game and that there “was no excuse” for a tie. Others said that this series between the two teams is a joke and that they have fun watching the games. Of course, the Eagles fans just expressed surprise that their favorite team couldn’t defeat a team that finished 2-14 in 2019.

Is a tie with the Bengals as bad as a loss?
Lines are open.

Did the Eagles play for a tie against an 0-2 Bengals team, coming off a 2-14 season, and starting a rookie QB?

Canโt believe Bengals were just okay with settling for a tie. Didnโt even try, absolutely nothing.
