Though he won both battles, Gen Howe did not destroy Washington's forces at Brandywine Creek or Germantown. He spent the winter in Philadelphia, while Washington was a few miles away at Valley Forge.

In so doing, he left British Gen John Burgoyne exposed as he came into the Battle of Saratoga where Burgoyne suffered a crushing defeat.
