Eagles 22, Packers 10: Report Card

That one wasn’t pretty (at least on offense) but it didn’t have to be. They won and are advancing. 

In 2017 the first playoff win was ugly. In 2022 their first playoff win was against one of worst playoff teams in recent years (Giants). 

Yes, the offense needs to be better. That starts with Jalen Hurts, who was not good. They won’t win many games if he plays like that again. The Eagles have to hope that was rust and not a sign of things to come. 

But the defense was outstanding. Nolan Smith was amazing. They forced two turnovers (three including special teams). They gave the Packers almost no chance to win this game. They are the reason to believe this team can win it all. 

For all of the concern about Jake Elliott he made the two kicks he had to make. Clutch. 

If the offense is better in Jalen Hurts next start — which won’t be his first after a concussion — they still very much look like a team on the way to the Super Bowl
