Since being traded to the Eagles from the Titans, AJ Brown has been terrific for the team, and now is the time for him to take center stage. Going up against a team from the same division will mean a lot to all of the players, and today’s game against the Giants could very well turn out to be Brown’s breakout moment in the playoffs.
The Philadelphia Eagles were the first seed in the NFC and looked like the best team throughout the season. Although the New York Giants have done well to reach this stage, it won’t be a surprise if the Eagles completely blow them out. We are expecting a comfortable win for the Eagles, who have a home-field advantage.
