PHILADELPHIA (AP) — The Philadelphia Eagles are heading to the NFC championship game on the strength of wide receivers A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith. Brown had 88 catches for 1,496 yards and 11 touchdowns this season. He topped Mike Quick’s 1,409 yards in 1983 for most in a season in team history. Smith finished his second NFL season with 95 catches, which are the most by a wide receiver in team history. He trailed only tight end Zach Ertz’s 116 catches in 2018 for the most in a season by an Eagles player. Smith and Brown’s performances are one reason quarterback Jalen Hurts has become an MVP finalist.
