Eagles News: Philadelphia’s X-factor for the playoffs

2021 NFL playoffs: X-factor for each of the 14 teams - NFL.com
DALLAS GOEDERT: The Eagles’ sticky-fingered tight end is a crafty pass catcher with a knack for finding holes over the middle of the field. Goedert could play a huge role in the playoffs with opponents intent on taking away Philadelphia’s outside weapons ( DeVonta Smith and Quez Watkins) to force Jalen Hurts to throw into traffic between the hashes. The 6-5, 256-pounder is a polished route runner with receiver-like skills, and his ability to get open could be a true difference-maker in a playoff game.
