The Philadelphia Eagles dominated the Washington Commanders in the NFC Championship game, winning 55-23. The Eagles' running game was unstoppable, with Saquon Barkley scoring 7 rushing touchdowns.¹
The Commanders struggled to contain Barkley from the start, as he broke tackles and took the ball 60 yards for a touchdown on the Eagles' first drive.² The Eagles' defense also forced three fumbles, which proved costly for the Commanders.
Despite a valiant effort from quarterback Jayden Daniels, who threw for several big plays, including a touchdown to Terry McLaurin, the Commanders couldn't keep up with the Eagles' high-powered offense.
The Eagles will now advance to the Super Bowl, where they'll face the winner of the AFC Championship game.
