When the Eagles played the Rams in November, Saquon Barkley led the way with a season-high 255 yards rushing.
But quarterback Jalen Hurts started Sunday’s divisional-round matchup with a big run of his own.
Hurts took a designed QB run 44 yards to the end zone to give Philadelphia an early lead against Los Angeles. But the score stayed at 6-0 as Jake Elliott missed the extra point.
The Eagles started the game passing, with Jalen Hurts connecting with Dallas Goedert for a 14-yard gain. DeVonta Smith and Saquon Barkley also had receptions on the possession, as Hurts started 3-of-3 for 25 yards.
But on second-and-4, Hurts faked a handoff to Barkley, kept it, and darted 44 yards down the field for the score.
