Three weeks ago, the Philadelphia Eagles were firmly in control of the top seed in the NFC after a 10-1 start.

After three losses, the Eagles ceded that control to the San Francisco 49ers and found themselves in a battle with the Dallas Cowboys for the NFC East. Two of those losses came in blowout fashion for the 49ers and Cowboys, raising major questions about Philadelphia's championship viability.

After a tough stretch of games, the Eagles finished the regular season with two against the 5-9 Giants and another against the 3-11 Arizona Cardinals with their first game against the Giants on Christmas. Can they get right against a soft schedule in time for the playoffs?

  • Jalen hurts. Devonta Smith. Six for the Eagles.

    Philadelphia extended its lead to 17-3 at the start of the second quarter.

  • Jalen Hurts now holds the NFL record for most rushing touchdowns by a quarterback in a single season.

    His first-quarter touchdown was his 15th of the year, breaking a tie with Cam Newton (2011).

  • The Eagles make a stop in the net and Jake Elliott kicks a 28-yard field goal to extend the lead to 10-3.

  • By the end of the first quarter, the Eagles outscored the Giants 7-3.

    D'Andre Swift thought he reversed the field and scored a second goal for Philadelphia, but his knee was ruled a fall on the play.

  • Jalen Hurts' amazing play to track down the bad shot and beat Grant Calcaterra for the first time!

    This is Calcaterra's first catch of the season.

  • Mason Crosby signed with the Giants on Saturday. Mason Crosby made his first field goal for the Giants on Monday, from 52 yards out to cut the Eagles' lead to 7-3.

  • A fraternal push gets it done. The Eagles took an early 7-0 lead after a big punt return put them in the red zone.

  • A 54-yard punt return by Britain Coffey gets the Eagles into action on their first drive. Philadelphia's first drive begins at New York's 13-yard line.

  • Three-and-out for the Giants on their first possession.

  • The Eagles will start the match after winning the toss. The Giants have the ball first.

  • Eagles vs. Giants is next.

  • And this is the game. The Raiders ran out the clock and went on to pull off a stunning 20-14 upset of the Raiders. Kansas City still dominates the AFC West with a score of 9-6, two games behind the second-place Denver Broncos (7-8). But there is cause for concern in Kansas City.

  • Zamir White put the game into perspective for the Raiders. There are two big runs (43 and 15 yards) on Las Vegas in the red zone with 2:00 remaining. The Chiefs are out of time. The Raiders could run out the clock from here. What a disturbance.

  • Great result for Chiefs. Kansas City is one score behind after Patrick Mahomes found Justin Watson in the end zone. The Raiders lead 20-14 with 2:42 remaining. The Chiefs have a deadline remaining.

  • Chiefs do not benefit from overturning the objection. The Raiders are fourth down in the red zone and lead 20-7 at the start of the fourth quarter. Bosses will need to get some big breaks to avoid Christmas disruption at home.

  • Mahomes nearly threw another interception. It was overturned as incomplete upon review of the replay. Big break for the Chiefs. The Raiders took a 20-7 lead into the fourth period.
