Eagles beat Packers in wild-card round

The Eagles defeated the Packers, 22-10, thanks to a strong defensive performance on Sunday at Lincoln Financial Field in the wild-card round of the NFL playoffs. 

Philadelphia's defense and special teams forced four turnovers, including three interceptions on Green Bay quarterback Jordan Love. 

The biggest turnover of the game happened on the opening kickoff, when linebacker Oren Burks forced a fumble on Green Bay cornerback Keisean Nixon. The turnover led to Jalen Hurts tossing a touchdown to Jahan Dotson moments later. 

Cornerback Darius Slay, linebacker Zack Baun and rookie cornerback Quinyon Mitchell each had interceptions on Love. 

Hurts and the passing game struggled for most of the game. He completed 13 of his 21 passes for 131 yards and touchdowns to Dotson and tight end Dallas Goedert. 

Goedert had four catches for 47 yards, while DeVonta Smith led the team in receiving with 55 yards on four catches. A.J. Brown had one catch for 10 yards. 

Eagles starting linebacker Nakobe Dean exited the game with a knee injury.

It's unclear who the Eagles will play next week in the divisional round of the playoffs, but it will be at the Linc due to them being the No. 2 seed.

Jake Elliott hits another FG, extends Eagles' lead

Jake Elliott hit a 30-yard field goal to make it a 19-10 game with 8:20 left in the fourth quarter.

Josh Jacobs scores TD

Josh Jacobs scored on a 1-yard touchdown for the Green Bay Packers to make it a one-score game, 16-10, with 14:56 left in the fourth quarter. 

Jacobs was ruled down at the 1-yard line after a massive run where he dragged multiple Eagles defenders. It was similar to Dallas Goedert's on the previous possession, Jacobs wouldn't be denied. 

The Eagles have done a good job at limiting Jacobs throughout the game, despite a 32-yard run on that drive. He has 81 yards on eight carries and two catches for 26 yards.

Dallas Goedert scores TD

Dallas Goedert wouldn't be denied. The Eagles tight end scored a 24-yard touchdown on a pass from Jalen Hurts where he stiff-armed a Packers defender on his way to the end zone. 

The Packers sent a blitz, Hurts got the ball out quickly and Goedert did the rest. The Eagles lead, 16-3, with 3:20 left in the third quarter. Jake Elliott missed the extra point.

Packers finally on the board

Brandon McManus hit a 26-yard field goal midway through the third quarter to make it a 10-3 game. 

The Packers' drive was 12 plays, 76 yards and lasted 5 minutes, 47 seconds. 

The Eagles' offense has been cold since the first quarter, but now they'll get a chance to respond.

Romeo Doubs down with injury

The Packers are already without wide receiver Christian Watson, and Romeo Doubs might be hurt as well. 

Doubs was getting looked at by the medical staff after he hit his head on the field on a pass from quarterback Jordan Love. Doubs jumped in the end zone to catch the pass, but it was incomplete. As he came back to the ground, the back of Doubs' head hit the field. 

Doubs eventually walked off the field and was helped to the locker room.

Eagles lead Packers at halftime

The Eagles lead the Packers, 10-0, at halftime, but they left a lot of meat on the bone. 

Jalen Hurts started off the game sharp and completed his first six passes, but that didn't last. At halftime, Hurts has completed 6 of his 13 passes for 39 yards and the game's lone touchdown to wide receiver Jahan Dotson. 

A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith have combined for two catches for 20 yards in the first half. The team's passing game struggled in the first half. Meanwhile, Saquon Barkley has 58 yards on nine carries for the Eagles. 

The Eagles were able to capitalize on Green Bay's first turnover of the game, but they weren't able to turn two Jordan Love interceptions into any points. Cornerback Darius Slay and linebacker Zack Baun have each picked off Love so far. 

Vic Fangio's defense has limited Love and the Packers. They have 101 total yards and running back Josh Jacobs only has 25 yards on 2.5 yards per carry. 

The Eagles lost starting linebacker Nakobe Dean in the first half due to a knee injury. He was ruled out of the game. Before leaving the contest, Dean had six total tackles, including two for loss.

Zack Baun makes massive play

Zack Baun's special year in Philadelphia is continuing in the playoffs. 

Baun intercepted Jordan Love late in the second quarter as the Packers were trying to drive into Eagles' territory. 

Unfortunately for the Eagles, they weren't able to come away with any points and went three-and-out. 

The Eagles haven't been able to take advantage of Green Bay's early turnovers.

Nakobe Dean ruled out

The Eagles ruled out starting linebacker Nakobe Dean with a knee injury not long after he exited the game.

Oren Burks replaced Dean on the field after he left the game. 

Before he left the game, Dean had six total tackles, including two for loss. 

Dean had his best year with the Eagles this season after the team drafted him in the third round in the 2022 NFL draft. He had 128 total tackles, one forced fumble, two fumble recoveries and an interception. 

Injuries have hampered Dean since he entered the league.

Brandon McManus misses FG

The Packers had a chance to get on the scoreboard, but Brandon McManus, who went to Temple University, missed a 38-yard field goal attempt wide right. 

The Packers drove down the field and drained nearly eight minutes off the clock, but they came away with no points.

Slay questionable to return to game, Dean exits game

Eagles cornerback Darius Slay, who has an interception, is questionable to return with an elbow injury. 

After exiting the game, Green Bay tested backup cornerback Isaiah Rodgers on a throw to Romeo Doubs, but Rodgers made a nice play on the ball and broke up the pass. 

Eagles linebacker Nakobe Dean also went to the medical tent after he was helped off the field by trainers. 

Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts was also in the medical tent, but he returned to the sideline. He was recently cleared from concussion protocol and is dealing with a finger injury on his left hand. It's unclear why Hurts was in the medical tent.

Jake Elliott boots in 31-yard FG

The Eagles drove down the field pretty easily against the Packers late in the first quarter but settled for a field goal.

Jake Elliott, who has struggled this season, hit a 31-yard field goal to give Philadelphia a 10-0 lead with 19 seconds left in the first quarter. 

So far, Jalen Hurts has looked sharp. He's completed 6 of his 9 passes for 39 yards and a touchdown and rushed for 15 yards.

Nolan Smith's sack forces Green Bay to punt

Nolan Smith made a massive play on third down midway through the first quarter to force the Packers to punt. 

On third-and-three, Smith blew past a Packers offensive lineman and sacked quarterback Jordan Love for a loss of 14 yards, which forced Green Bay to punt. 

Eagles rookie cornerback Cooper DeJean returned the punt for 11 yards to set the Birds up from the 30-yard line on their next drive.

Questionable third down call

The Eagles had the chance to take a two-score lead, but a questionable third-down play call led to them punting. 

On third-and-five from Green Bay's 47-yard line, the Eagles tossed a screen pass to Saquon Barkley for no gain. 

Barkley started the play on the outside and then motioned to the other side of the field before hauling in the pass from Hurts. 

Green Bay now takes over with a chance to get on the scoreboard.

Eagles defense forces 3 and out

In their first series of the game, the Eagles' defense forced quarterback Jordan Love and the Packers to go three-and-out. 

Love, who exited last week's game against the Bears with a right elbow injury, sailed a throw over the head of wideout Dontayvion Wicks that nearly intercepted by Birds safety C.J. Gardner-Johnson on first down.

Love also was nearly sacked on third down, but he tossed the ball away. 

It's early, but so far the game has been all Eagles.

Former Eagles FB Jon Ritchie concerned about Jake Elliott

Former Birds fullback Jon Ritchie joined "Gallen of Questions" to preview the Eagles' matchup against the Packers in the playoffs over the weekend.

Ritchie said he's concerned about Eagles kicker Jake Elliott heading into the playoffs. 

"When every point matters this much, I feel a little frightened by the proposition that we might have to put our faith on the kicker from 50 plus when it matters most," Ritchie said. "Is he ready to take that kick? Is Nick [Sirianni] going to have to adjust his decision-making because our kicker can't make it far?"
