Saints set to play Eagles in NFC Playoffs Divisional Round

Heading into Chicago to face the Bears in January, on their home turf and with the number one defense in the league, the Philadelphia Eagles came into the NFC Playoffs Wild Card Round as underdogs by as much as a touchdown according to oddsmakers. But, again with Nick Foles filling in for an injured Carson Wentz at quarterback, the Eagles defied those odds and came out with a 16-15 win to advance to the NFC Playoffs Divisional Round where they’ll face the Saints.

The Eagles are a team looking starkly different than the one the Saints steamrolled 48-7 back in Week 11.
