The first, of course, is that the Eagles (14-3) already beat the Rams (10-7) back on Nov. 24, 37-20, at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles. In that game, Saquon Barkley rushed for 255 yards, a career-high and franchise record. That included TD runs of 70 and 72 yards.

The snow pelted all over Lincoln Financial Field in the second half, a time when the Philadelphia Eagles defense rose to the occasion. Jalen Carter and Nolan Smith forced two fumbles in the snow that led to two fourth-quarter field goals as the Eagles outlasted the Los Angeles Rams 28-22 in the snow to advance to the NFC Championship game.
