- Analysis
- The Los Angeles Rams are set to face the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC Divisional Round on Sunday at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia. Kickoff is scheduled for 3 p.m. ET, with the game broadcast on NBC. The Eagles concluded the regular season with a 14-3 record, securing the No. 2 seed in the NFC. They advanced to the Divisional Round after a 22-10 victory over the Green Bay Packers, a game highlighted by their defense forcing four turnovers. The Rams finished the regular season at 10-7, earning the No. 4 seed. They progressed by defeating the Minnesota Vikings 27-9 in the Wild Card round, showcasing a dominant defensive performance with nine sacks. These teams previously met in Week 12, where the Eagles secured a 37-20 victory at SoFi Stadium. In that matchup, running back Saquon Barkley delivered a record-setting performance with 255 rushing yards, including two touchdowns exceeding 70 yards each. Weather Conditions have to be looked at in these East coast games. The forecast in Philadelphia predicts a mix of rain and snow with temperatures around 40°F. These conditions could affect gameplay, particularly for the Rams, whose veteran quarterback Matthew Stafford has historically faced challenges in inclement weather. The rematch between the Rams and Eagles promises to be a compelling contest. The Rams will need to implement strategic adjustments to contain Barkley and overcome the Eagles' defensive strengths, while the Eagles will strive to replicate their prior success to advance to the NFC Championship Game. I'm going to take the points here today with the Rams.
