On a night when few believed that the Eagles could win, they did just that and shocked the NFL world.
Nick Foles played in place of Carson Wentz, who has a stress fracture in his lower back. It was just a year ago when Nick Foles had to come in, in relief of Carson Wentz after tearing two ligaments in his knee. Nick Foles was victorious in that game as well.
Sunday night’s victory puts the Eagles in the “7th seed” spot, which is on the outside looking in on the playoffs. But they are just a half game away from moving up into the 6th seed, which would mean they would play at least one Wildcard game. From there, anything can happen.
On the night, Nick Foles went 24/31 77.4% 270 YDS 0 TDs 1 INT with a passer rating of 89.4, while Jared Goff went 35/54 64.8% 339 YDS 0 TDs 2 INTs with a passer rating of 66.8.
Next up for the Eagles are the Houston Texans, in Philadelphia and then the Washington Redskins to finish off the regular season.
