Philadelphia Eagles CB Darius Slay reacts to the Eagles’ divisional round victory over the Los Angeles Rams and advance to the NFC Championship game. Slay talks about ex-teammate and Rams QB Matthew Stafford challenging Slay during the final minutes of the game, the difficulty of covering the Rams’ super-talented receivers on a snowy field, and how the Eagles defense was able to stop the Rams’ attempt at last-minute heroics. Slay discusses how Nolan Smith went from media rumors of being “trash” to realities of "bustin’ ass”, why Saquon is the 2nd best running back he’s ever seen, and gives us advice on how NOT to catch an interception. Slay reacts to other playoff games from the weekend including why he had a feeling the Washington Commanders would upset the Detroit Lions after watching game film, and why Jayden Daniels is the best rookie quarterback ever. Finally, Slay previews the Eagles upcoming matchup against division rivals, the Washington Commanders.
