Eagles Lead Commanders 27-15 at NFC Championship Halftime

The Philadelphia Eagles lead the Washington Commanders 27-15 at halftime of the NFC Championship Game, with Saquon Barkley shining as a key player, scoring two touchdowns and rushing for 85 yards. After Washington initially led with a field goal, Barkley responded with a 60-yard touchdown run to put the Eagles ahead. The Commanders fought back with a touchdown pass from Jayden Daniels to Terry McLaurin, but failed a two-point conversion attempt. Tensions escalated in the second quarter as a skirmish broke out between players following a touchdown by Jalen Hurts. The Eagles capitalized on a Commanders fumble, leading to another touchdown before Washington managed a field goal to end the half. Both teams are vying for a trip to Super Bowl LIX, with rookie quarterback Daniels aiming to make history with a postseason victory.
