Packers-Eagles on Wild Card Weekend Sunday: What We Learned from Philadelphia's 22-10 win

Eagles use turnovers to smother Packers. Philadelphia forced a fumble on the opening kickoff, a theme that would continue throughout the defensive tussle. The Eagles stifled Jordan Love and the Packers, generating two second-quarter interceptions and a game-sealing Quinyon Mitchell pick to close the contest. Philly's D controlled the contest from start to finish as the offense worked through issues. The sticky secondary forced Love to hold on to the ball, not giving the Packers easy answers. Vic Fangio's D was electric off the bat, allowing just one first-quarter first down and 16 yards as the Eagles jumped out to a double-digit lead. Outside of a couple of Josh Jacobs runs and a Jayden Reed YAC play, the Eagles tackled well and didn't give up extra yards. Fangio's D smothered the big-play Packers offense, giving up just four plays of 20-plus yards and holding Green Bay to 302 total yards. The Eagles defense has spearheaded the turnaround from last year's collapse. That trend continued in the wild-card win.
