Jalen Hurts and the Philadelphia Eagles secured the NFC's top playoff seed with a win on the final weekend of the regular season that snapped a two-game skid.
PHILADELPHIA, PA - JANUARY 08: Jalen Hurts #1 of the Philadelphia Eagles scrambles against the New York Giants at Lincoln Financial Field on January 8, 2023 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Hurts returned to Philadelphia's lineup last weekend after missing two weeks with a sprained right shoulder and helped the Eagles secure the top seed and lone bye in the NFC playoffs.
On Sunday, the Vikings host the Giants and on Monday night, the Cowboys visit the Buccaneers , who have a losing record but the biggest winner in playoff history with Tom Brady under center.One Lombardi in three Super Bowl appearances: lost to Raiders 27-10 in Super Bowl 15, lost to Patriots 24-21 in Super Bowl 39, beat Patriots 41-33 in Super Bowl 52. Last year: 9-8, lost to Buccaneers 31-15 in wild-card round.
Plan the parade: San Francisco might have the NFL’s most complete roster that fueled a 10-game winning streak to end the regular season. The defense was the stingiest in the NFL led by the league's leading sacker in Nick Bosa and versatile LB Fred Warner. The offense hit a new level after the midseason addition of Christian McCaffrey to a group of playmakers that already featured stars George Kittle, Deebo Samuel and Brandon Aiyuk.
Cancel the confetti: Despite the impressive numbers Brady posted in his 23rd season, the Bucs were not nearly as good offensively as they were the past two seasons. Injuries forced the QB to play with a constantly changing cast of linemen and receivers, contributing to problems sustaining drives and scoring TDs. Tampa Bay scored 18.4 points per game — 25th in the league — after averaging more than 30 the past two years. Brady got little help from the team’s 32nd-ranked rushing attack.
"There is always a turn the page, reboot, whatever phrase you’re looking to use when the regular season ends and the playoffs start. You want as much consistency and conformity to how you always operate. We all understand what these games mean. We’re guaranteed four quarters. That’s all we’re guaranteed." — Cowboys coach Mike McCarthy.
