Philadelphia managed to edge past an injury-depleted Green Bay Packers squad in the wildcard round, securing a 22-10 victory.
Despite the win, the team’s offense struggled to shine, generating just 290 total yards and two touchdowns throughout the game.

NFL analyst and former Wisconsin quarterback Nate Tice shared his insights on Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts during his appearance on “The Ross Tucker Podcast.”
Hurts, a two-time Pro Bowler, has proven himself to be a strong player in the league over recent seasons.
Even with an impressive 12-3 record as the starter this year and career-best numbers in various categories, there seems to be something lacking in his performance.
The quarterback finished the season without surpassing 3,000 passing yards and threw only 18 touchdown passes.
While Philadelphia relies heavily on the run game, and Saquon Barkley has been extraordinary from the backfield, the offense cannot depend solely on rushing plays.
Advancing further into the playoffs will require Hurts to step up and deliver more impactful performances.
His performance against Green Bay was underwhelming, as he managed just 131 passing yards with a 61.9% completion rate.
If the Eagles defeat the Los Angeles Rams in their upcoming matchup, they will likely face challenging defenses from teams like the Washington Commanders, Detroit Lions, or Kansas City Chiefs in the next rounds.
