The Philadelphia Eagles punched their ticket to the NFC championship game with a 28-22 victory over the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday, led by a dominant performance from Saquon Barkley and a clutch defensive stand late in the game.
Barkley looked as good as ever in the snowy conditions, rushing for 205 yards (including 170 yards after contact) and two long touchdowns. His first came in the opening half on a 62-yard dash, and he sealed the game in the fourth quarter with a 78-yard run, breaking through the defense untouched.
The Rams kept things close despite their struggles with turnovers. Matthew Stafford connected with Colby Parkinson for a 4-yard touchdown in the fourth quarter, narrowing the gap to 28-22. Stafford then drove Los Angeles deep into Eagles territory with two late completions, but Philadelphia's defense held firm. Jalen Carter delivered a key sack on third down, and Stafford’s fourth-down pass fell incomplete, ending the Rams' comeback hopes.
