The Philadelphia Eagles, led by Saquon Barkley are one win away from the Super Bowl and a chance at redemption.
After beating the Los Angeles Rams last weekend in the divisional round, the Eagles will face the Washington Commanders for the third time this season.
And they’re led by NFL rushing champion, Saquon Barkley, who loves his new team and city and who should be considered as a top MVP candidate.
“What’s up, Philly! Thank you guys so much for the love and support. At the end of the day, it’s gotta go through Philly. We’ll see y’all next week.”
The two teams split their matchups this season. The Eagles took the first game by eight points and Washington took the second one by three.
As both games were decided by one score, the NFC championship game looks to be competitive and close.
Should the Eagles win, they have an opportunity for payback against the Chiefs, who must beat the Bills to advance to their third straight Super Bowl. If that happens, Philadelphia will look to avenge the 38-35 Super Bowl LVII loss back in 2023.
While the quarterbacks, Jalen Hurts and Patrick Mahomes, respectively, remain the same, the biggest weapon on the field in that potential rematch would be Saquon Barkley.
Barkley has run all over opponents this past regular season to the tune of 2,005 yards. Against the Rams last week, he rumbled for 255 yards and 2 TDs, one for 70 yards and the other for 72.
The Eagles as viewed as favorites to win this year’s Superbowl and rightfully so. They have the best roster from top to bottom between the final four teams. The Eagles’ wide receivers are elite, Saquon is leading the charge, the offensive line is one of the top 5 in the league and the defensive, particularly Jalen Carter, Reed Blankenship, and Daruis Slay Jr., have stepped up.
If the Eagles do not win the Superbowl this year, they will miss out on a perfect opportunity to be champions. The NFC is becoming more competitive and the Commanders have new life with Jayden Daniels under center.
The Eagles have a great opportunity to go all the way and cement themselves in the history books as champions, and this is the year to do it.
