The Eagles closed out the regular season with the NFL’s second best rushing attack, which helped keep their offense afloat as snow fell throughout Sunday’s divisional round clash.
Philadelphia was led by Saquon Barkley once again, as the three-time Pro Bowl running back picked up 205 yards and two touchdowns on 26 carries. As a team, the Eagles amassed 285 rushing yards and three scores while averaging 8.4 yards per attempt.
Jalen Hurts wasn’t asked to throw the ball often, but he remained efficient despite getting sacked six times. Hurts finished 15-of-20 for 128 yards.
Philadelphia held a 13-point advantage with just over four minutes left in regulation, but Los Angeles stayed within striking distance by scoring a quick touchdown and forcing the Eagles to punt.
The Rams drove down to Philadelphia’s 13-yard line, but they ultimately turned the ball over on downs and failed to record a potential game-winning score.
With the Eagles’ victory, they’ll host their NFC East rivals after the Washington Commanders defeated the Detroit Lions on Saturday night.
