Los Angeles Rams rookie defensive end Jared Verse heightened tensions before Sunday's playoff matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles by stating, "I hate Eagles fans." In response, Eagles supporters paid for billboards displaying his quote, and the team projected it on the stadium's video board during the game, fueling the rivalry. Despite the hostile environment, Verse embraced the animosity, recording two crucial third-down sacks on Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts, which pushed them out of field goal range and drew strong reactions from the crowd. However, Eagles defensive tackle Jalen Carter proved decisive, forcing a key fumble from Kyren Williams using a 'Peanut' punch and recording multiple sacks, including a critical third-down sack on the Rams' final drive. The Eagles secured a 28-22 victory and advanced to face the Washington Commanders for the NFC title.
