Typically known for being overly aggressive, Philadelphia's coach played it safe, potentially costing his team three points at the end of the first half.

"Our confidence is stemmed from the work we put in in practice," Eagles linebacker Nakobe Dean said. "You see Sirianni, he had us in a padded practice for the playoffs and everybody embraced it. That's our confidence level."

There is a significantly different vibe in the Philadelphia Eagles locker room compared to this time last season. The confidence is strong among the players heading into the postseason, something that was missing as Philadelphia limped into the playoffs a year ago.
