We lasted eight days. We’ve finally made it.

Tonight, the Eagles can get to the Super Bowl for the first time since 2005 as they take on the Minnesota Vikings at home in the NFC Conference Championship. It’s Nick Foles against Case Keenum. Who would’ve thought?

On the injury front, the Eagles are very healthy. Dannell Ellerbe is questionable with a hamstring injury. He played last week, so I don’t see why he won’t play this week.

For the Vikings, backup defensive tackle Shamar Stephen is out. Adam Thielen, Andrew Sendejo, and Mackensie Alexander are all questionable, but will play. According to Ian Rapoport, Thielen will play despite being in a ton of pain.

We’ll continually update this post as the game goes along. And check out our predictions to see how good (or probably bad) we guessed this game.

7:20 – Nick Foles is humming. Torrey Smith limps off the field. Eagles close to the red zone.

7:12 – Vikings go three-and-out. Let’s see if the offense can do something to continue this momentum.

7:02 – Stefon Diggs is down on the field. Looks like he took a knee to his back.
