The Eagles only called one running play for him against the Giants - a quarterback sneak. He's back after missing two games with a sprained SC joint, but he wasn't healthy enough in the season finale to play like himself. X-factor: There might not be a bigger X-factor in the entire NFC playoff field than the health of quarterback Jalen Hurts' right shoulder. That didn't often cost the Eagles during the regular season. But their run defense has often allowed opponents to hang around in games a lot longer than they should. They gave up 119.4 rushing yards per game in their 14 wins and 132 rushing yards per game in their three losses, which isn't an enormous difference. Running on the Eagles isn't exactly a blueprint for beating them. They've only held an opponent under 100 yards five times all season long. Biggest question mark: Their run defense has been a struggle all season, mostly because their tackling has often been sloppy.
