The Philadelphia Eagles are the NFC Champions. They defeated the Minnesota Vikings, 38-7, and will play in Super Bowl LII.

After the first quarter, the Eagles and Vikings are tied 7-7.

The Vikings scored on the game's opening drive on a 25-yard touchdown pass from quarterback Case Keenum to tight end Kyle Rudolph. The Eagles' defense would respond on the Vikings' next drive.

On third-and-8 with six minutes to go, cornerback Patrick Robinson intercepted Keenum's pass intended for Adam Thielen and returned it across the field 50 yards for a touchdown. It was Robinson's second pick-six of his career and tied the game at 7-7.

The Eagles will take over from the Minnesota 17 to start the second quarter.
