All’s well that ends well, and the Eagles will advance to the NFC Championship — but not without taking a minute to enjoy this snow game victory first.
It wasn’t clean football. It wasn’t dry football. But the Philadelphia Eagles managed to win against the Rams and advance to the NFC Championship Game in a slippery snow game. The injuries to Jalen Hurts and Quinyon Mitchell aren’t considered long term concerns, the Eagles will get to host against the Commanders next Sunday in The Linc, and those are reasons to celebrate.
As the snow fell and the Eagles secured their victory with just over a minute to play, the players were energetic in their celebrations from the sideline to the locker room.
And, honorable mention to the defense doing snow angels in the endzone earlier in the fourth quarter.
The Eagles were getting a lot of love throughout the game from Philly alumni and other players around the league, too. Everyone was pretty much in awe of Saquon Barkley and all of the things that he does with the football in his hands.
