The Philadelphia Eagles advanced to the NFC Championship Game with a dominant victory over the New York Giants on Sunday. Led by quarterback Jalen Hurts, the Eagles defeated the Giants 23-11 in a game that was never in doubt.
The Eagles defense was the star of the show, holding the Giants to just 11 points while forcing two turnovers. Hurts was efficient, completing 16 of 25 passes for 145 yards and a touchdown. He also added 34 yards and a touchdown on the ground.
The Giants, meanwhile, were a big-time dud according to Sports Illustrated’s report card. Quarterback Daniel Jones threw for just 213 yards, one touchdown, and two interceptions, while the running game was held to just 67 yards.
The victory was a reminder of how dominant the Eagles have been all season. Despite losing several key players to injury, they have managed to stay atop the NFC East and are now just one game away from the Super Bowl.
The experts at the New York Post had a variety of opinions on the game, but all agreed that the Eagles were the clear winners. Now, they will face either the Tampa Bay Buccaneers or the New Orleans Saints in the NFC Championship Game.
