The Philadelphia Eagles are flying a bit underneath the radar as they put together for a matchup towards the Los Angeles Rams within the divisional spherical of the playoffs, however they appear to have an actual shot at attending to the Tremendous Bowl and profitable all of it.
They took care of the Inexperienced Bay Packers, 22-10, within the wild-card spherical on Sunday, and whereas star large receiver A.J. Brown was quiet in that sport, he has had one other robust season total.

Throughout the common season, Brown put up 1,079 receiving yards and 7 touchdowns on 67 catches regardless of enjoying simply 13 video games, and he and Devonta Smith give the Eagles one of many NFL’s greatest large receiver tandems.
He has surpassed the 1,000-yard mark in 5 of his six professional seasons, and he doubtless would’ve gotten to that milestone as nicely in 2021 had it not been for a chest damage that price him three video games.
He had only one catch for 10 yards versus Inexperienced Bay, and it’s protected to say he might want to produce greater than that versus a Rams crew that appeared splendid in its blowout win over the Minnesota Vikings on Monday.
But when Brown, who has been coping with a knee damage recently, is spry sufficient to place up his ordinary numbers, the Eagles might find yourself flying all the way in which to the Vince Lombardi Trophy within the subsequent few weeks.
