The Philadelphia Eagles haven’t kicked off in Week 15, and they haven’t won a game this month, but they clinched a playoff berth on Sunday.<\/p>\n
The Eagles were ushered into the playoffs thanks to wins by the 49ers and Lions and losses by the Packers and Falcons.<\/p>\n
It’s the Eagles’ third straight playoff trip.<\/p>\n
Each of those three have come since Nick Sirianni took over as head coach for the Eagles and with Jalen Hurts as the starting quarterback. It’s been an ultra-successful combination so far.<\/p>\n
Next up for the Eagles (10-3) is a chance to snap a two-game losing streak against the Seattle Seahawks on Monday night.<\/p>\n
In addition to looking for a much-needed win, Philadelphia is hoping to gain a game over the Dallas Cowboys for the NFC East title and extend their chances at earning the NFC\u2019s top seed.<\/p>\n
Philadelphia is aiming for back-to-back division titles and a repeat as the conference’s No. 1 seed.<\/p>\n
The Eagles got some good fortune on Sunday that they’re no doubt hoping to maintain on Monday and beyond.<\/p>\n
