NFC Championship Edition: Five Questions with Bleeding Green Nation
Briefly

The No. 6 seed Washington Commanders will face No. 2 seed Eagles in the NFL Conference Championship. The Eagles started slowly but have improved significantly, only losing to the Commanders once since Week 5. The Eagles boast the top defense in the league, thanks to coaching from Vic Fangio and standout players like Jalen Carter and Zack Baun. Though the offense ranks well overall, it has notable weaknesses in the passing game, heavily reliant on Jalen Hurts’ rushing ability, which may be compromised due to a knee injury.
The Eagles defense remains the NFL's top statistical defense, allowing the fewest total yards and earning multiple All-Pro honors, showcasing significant talent and coaching.
Despite a strong rushing game led by QB Jalen Hurts, the Eagles offense is ranked poorly in passing yards, indicating room for improvement.
