Neither snow, nor rain, nor gloom of night could keep the Eagles from reaching their destiny. As it turns out, their destiny is the NFC championship game. They’ve been piloted there for the second time in three seasons,

The brilliant free-agent signing by the Philadelphia Eagles ran for 255 yards and two touchdowns in a regular season win over LA. On Sunday at snowy Lincoln Financial Field, Barkley ran for two more touchdowns and 205 yards as the Eagles advanced to the NFC Championship Game with a thrilling 28-22 win.

Philadelphia held off a late rally by the Rams to punch its ticket to next Sunday’s NFC championship at home against the Commanders.

The Eagles prevailed against the Rams in the divisional round despite a last-minute comeback attempt, a banged-up quarterback, and a kicker battling the snow.

Saquon Barkley dashed through the snow for touchdown runs of 78 and 62 yards and finished with 205 yards rushing, Jalen Hurts had a 44-yard scoring run and the Philadelphia Eagles held on against the turnover-happy Los Angeles Rams 28-22 to advance to the NFC championship game for the second time in three seasons.

Barkley’s 205 yards eclipsed his most recent playoff-best of 199 rushing yards from last week’s wild-card round victory over the Green Bay Packers. Barkley played in two playoff games with the New York Giants in the 2022 season but rushed for 114 combined yards.

The Philadelphia Eagles running back has been one of the best players in the league this season and he showed up big versus the Rams in the playoffs.

The snow pelted all over Lincoln Financial Field in the second half, a time when the Philadelphia Eagles defense rose to the occasion. Jalen Carter and Nolan Smith forced two fumbles in the snow that led to two fourth-quarter field goals as the Eagles outlasted the Los Angeles Rams 28-22 in the snow to advance to the NFC Championship game.
