Predictions how to see the NFC championship

On January 26, 2025By Littum

The Philadelphia Eagles and Washington’s commanders divided their season series in 2024. They are now ready for a rubber match in the NFC championship with a trip to the Super Bowl 59 on the line.

The Eagles were expected to be one of the best teams of the NFC during the 2024 season. They did not disappoint and earned the conference’s # 2-seed with a record of 14-3 while watching a signing of a free agent signing Saquon Barkley become NFL’s ninth ever 2,000-yard Rusher.

The commanders have been much more of a surprise. They ended the 2023 NFL season as one of the league’s worst teams with a grade of 4-13. However, the combination of the new head coach Dan Quinn and No. 2 Overall, Quarterback Jayden Danielsallowed Washington to perform an unexpectedly quick turn.

Commanders went 12-5 to earn the second wild card in NFC. They earned seeding disturbances over boats Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Detroit Lions Thanks to Quinn’s aggressiveness and Daniels’ stable but explosive playing skills, to put the franchise on the brink of his first Super Bowl performance for 33 years.

Meanwhile, Philadelphia’s performance after the season has not been quite as convincing as Washingtons. Their defense has typically stayed well and allows only 16 points per year. match Los Angeles Rams and Green Bay Packerswhile Jalen hurts have at times fought under pressure. He also has to do with a knee injury that can affect his mobility in the NFC championship.

Nevertheless, the Eagles are armed with a top-five scoring defense, while Barkley enjoyed tremendous success against commanders in the regular season. That is why many expect Nick Sirianni’s team to have the advantage and be positioned to end Quinn and Daniels’ Cinderella race.
