The snow pelted all over Lincoln Financial Field in the second half, a time when the Philadelphia Eagles defense rose to the occasion. Jalen Carter and Nolan Smith forced two fumbles in the snow that led to two fourth-quarter field goals as the Eagles outlasted the Los Angeles Rams 28-22 in the snow to advance to the NFC Championship game.

While the game began without any precipitation, flakes started to fall as the first quarter was wrapping up. And by the middle of the second quarter, conditions on the field began to deteriorate as a snow-sleet mix started to stick to the field.
