Donnie elsewhere around division around weekend
00:03
fun times in philadelphia
00:05
But stressful times as well a generational and historic performance out of saquon barkley
00:12
That has seen the rams twice this year in put up career efforts in both games
00:19
2822 the victory for the eagles at lincoln financial field on a snowy sunday afternoon
00:26
In philadelphia closing six and a half points spread
00:30
So by the hook la does cover total of 42 and a half does go
00:35
Over it was a saquon story yesterday
00:39
It was a ground effort by the eagles that we expected to be the difference
00:43
And it was and it did get tight late, but the eagles outlast the rams
00:49
2822 to advance to the nfc championship game for a second time in the last three seasons
00:56
Hosting said nfc title matchup in each of those two births
01:01
Yeah, we thought the weather conditions would favor the eagles and it was interesting to watch the way this game started then because it looked
01:06
Like it was going to be a clear day and maybe the weather
01:08
Hey held off at the right times and then you saw that sort of turn in the second half and we'll get there
01:13
But let's understand what happened in this football game to start and la rams just hoping they don't see saquon barkley in their nightmares
01:19
Because he absolutely was terrorizing them through their two games this year
01:24
The home run hitting ability was right away. And how about jalen hurts who did get banged up in this football game?
01:28
And again, we'll get to that just a little bit later
01:30
But sensation on the opening drive a 44 yard touchdown run the longest of career really setting the table saying we have the mobile quarterback
01:37
The weather's coming in here
01:39
We're going to get that lead early only to see the rams take a seven to six lead and then saquon barkley
01:43
Hits another home run before the snow gets out there an advantage to the philadelphia eagles
01:48
the one thing that was clear all the way through is
01:51
Jalen hurts has not been all that efficient in the air quite frankly
01:55
They haven't needed him to be all that efficient in the air. Then he gets injured a little bit
01:59
he takes the sack for his safety and i'm starting to worry like
02:02
Not only is can the eagles get to the super bowl or can they win next week?
02:05
Can they even win this football game because ben what was the major advantage you had if you said it's going to be a snow globe
02:11
For two to three quarters in this game. Well, one team has a statue in the pocket
02:15
The other has a mobile quarterback
02:16
You should just wait back there and count the three seconds run and do whatever you can
02:20
Jalen hurts wasn't able to do that
02:22
But the fact that saquon barkley was out there hitting home runs which included late in the game
02:26
Really covered up for a lot of flaws because you saw her take seven sacks in this ball game
02:30
The eagles defense had five sacks in this ball game
02:33
It wasn't as if it was really clean and almost that advantage went away where it was saquon barkley
02:37
Where's kyron williams and by the way, kyron williams 19 carries for 106 yards in that game
02:42
He was up to the task to try to chase down saquon until
02:46
Late in that game where he hit that home run to give the eagles the two touchdown lead and then ben
02:52
I don't I don't
02:53
Understand how my sunday played out that under 43 and a half the missed extra point by jake
02:58
Allen was like nobody's going to score in this game
02:59
But the rams can't even move the football now all of a sudden then to turn into and say we're just going to move up
03:03
And down the field left and right with ease against your second there, which is something we could not do
03:08
Also ben I had over 55 and a half carries in this game when saquon barkley hit that home run four minutes to go that gave
03:15
Me 54 carries. So if he doesn't hit the home run just gets eight yards gets two more carries
03:19
I win that game also at the end of the game stopping the rams at the end was great
03:23
I got one kneel down which gave me the 55. I lost the 43 and a half total also ben
03:28
I had 160 yards to play with on a 427 yard combined passing day between the two quarterbacks
03:35
With about seven minutes to go
03:37
I lost that too because the rams went into nuke mode on the final two possessions to give matthew stafford
03:42
324 to match up with hertz's 128 painful day in the pocket and an unbelievably crazy fan day
03:48
But the eagles were the better team why they didn't turn the football over the biggest moment, which the rams did twice
03:54
Which is unacceptable
