The Philadelphia Eagles punched their ticket to the Super Bowl on Sunday after defeating the Washington Commanders, 55-23. It was a dominant performance throughout, as Philly scored seven rushing touchdowns to earn the win.
Sunday's victory marks the team's second Super Bowl appearance in three years. Running back Saquon Barkley stole the show with 118 rushing yards and three touchdowns. However, quarterback Jalen Hurts had a huge game, too, finishing with 246 passing yards, one passing touchdown, and three rushing touchdowns while throwing a 71.4% completion percentage.
Philly celebrated the huge win with confetti while hoisting the NFC championship trophy. Players kept the party going in the locker room as the entire organization took time to enjoy the win. Hurts turned heads with a photo that has since gone viral.
In the picture, the 26-year-old quarterback is spotted wearing his pregame fit lighting up a massive cigar at his locker. Since being posted at about 7:30 p.m. EST. the image has received well over 600,000 views.
Former Eagles star Jason Kelce jumped on social media and shared his reaction to the viral photo as well. The 37-year-old former center had an expletive reaction to Hurts, as Kelce absolutely loved the image.
"This photo is [expletive] incredible," he said.
The Eagles await for their opponent as they will play one of the Buffalo Bills or Kansas City Chiefs. In the meantime, the franchise will enjoy some fun before turning around and preparing for the championship game.
Philly has every right to celebrate its victory on Sunday. Not only were the Eagles dominant against the Commanders, but they've been a problem throughout the postseason.
They outplayed the Green Bay Packers in the wild-card round after winning that contest, 22-10. Then the Eagles took it to the Los Angeles Rams in the divisional round, winning the matchup, 28-22.
Including the win over the Commanders, Hurts combined for 505 passing yards, seven total touchdowns, and zero interceptions while throwing a 63.4% completion percentage.
