Weather-73 degrees, 6 mph SSE
The Eagles withstood an early bomb from the Rams before imposing their ground game on Los Angeles on their way to a 20-7 victory. Philadelphia gained 242 yards on the ground, controlling the clock and keeping the dangerous Los Angeles passing attack off of the field. Eagles QB Bobby Thomason completed 15 of 25, including a TD pass to Pete Pihos, Pihos' 11th TD catch of the year.
Philadelphia's victory moves them into the semifinals, where they will face either Cleveland or Detroit in the semifinals.
