Eagles Defeat Rams, Advance to NFC Championship

Saquon Barkley led the Philadelphia Eagles to a 28-22 victory over the Los Angeles Rams in a snowy NFC Divisional Playoff game, rushing for 205 yards and scoring two long touchdowns. The Eagles secured their spot in the NFC championship game against the Washington Commanders, following the Commanders' surprise victory over the top-seeded Detroit Lions. Jalen Hurts contributed a 44-yard touchdown run, while the Rams, led by Matthew Stafford with 324 passing yards, stayed competitive until the end. The Rams' efforts were hindered by two missed extra points from Eagles' kicker Jake Elliott and turnovers, including a crucial strip-sack by Jalen Carter. Despite the challenging conditions, Philadelphia's defense held firm, forcing a fourth-down incompletion to end the Rams' final drive.
