The Los Angeles Rams head into their crucial matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles riding a wave of momentum, having transformed significantly since their previous encounter in Week 12. With a matured defense and an offense that shined in the Wild Card round, they look poised to make a deep playoff run. Former NFL player Jeff Saturday lauded the Rams for their resurgence, emphasizing the tactical acumen of head coach Sean McVay and the team's overall improvement throughout the season.

The Eagles, also fresh off a Wild Card victory, will need a stronger performance from quarterback Jalen Hurts to match the Rams' intensity. As both teams prepare to clash, the Rams' ability to contain star running back Saquon Barkley will be crucial. Should they manage that and keep the offense operating smoothly, they stand a strong chance of advancing to the NFC Championship game.
