Jalen Hurts, Eagles' Win vs. Packers in 2025 NFL Playoff Bracket Draws 35.9M Viewers

The Sunday matinee between the Philadelphia Eagles and Green Bay Packers in the NFC Wild Card Round drew a massive audience.

Fox Sports announced on Tuesday that 35.9 million viewers tuned in to watch the Eagles' 22-10 victory, making it the most-watched telecast of the entire week on any network.

The millions who tuned in had the pleasure of watching a grind-it-out game that epitomized playoff football. The Eagles and Packers put forth a defensive battle that still produced multiple highlights.

Philadelphia forced a fumble on the opening kickoff that set the tone for the day. Star quarterback Jalen Hurts immediately capitalized with a touchdown pass to Jahan Dotson to give the Eagles an early lead, and they never looked back.

Philadelphia's defense made its presence felt by recording two interceptions off Green Bay quarterback Jordan Love in the second quarter. A touchdown pass from Hurts to Dallas Goedert in the third quarter put the Eagles in full control.

The Packers refused to go down quietly and made it a one-possession game early in the fourth quarter, but a pair of field goals gave Philadelphia some much-needed breathing room. Love was picked off for the third time to seal the win for the Eagles.

The game also produced a viral moment when Philadelphia star receiver A.J. Brown was seen reading the book Inner Excellence on the sidelines.

The Eagles will face the Los Angeles Rams in the Divisional Round on Sunday, and that game is sure to be another back-and-forth defensive showdown between two teams peaking at the right time.
