The Eagles welcomed the return of quarterback Jalen Hurts and – thanks to a career performance by kicker Jake Elliott – were able to outlast the New York Giants 22-16 on Sunday at Lincoln Financial Field.

With the win, the Eagles are 2022 NFC East Champions and they clinched the No. 1 seed, ensuring that the NFC Playoffs will come through Philadelphia. The Eagles earned the conference’s lone bye and will return to action in the Divisional Round against the lowest-remaining seed.

The Giants entered Sunday’s game locked in as the No. 6 seed in the NFC, regardless of what happened against the Eagles. For that reason, they rested key starters – running back Saquon Barkley, defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence, safety Julian Love, and tackle Andrew Thomas were inactive despite being healthy.

Daniel Jones did not start at quarterback. Instead, the Giants went with Davis Webb, who was elevated from the practice squad on Saturday. The only starters on offense with offensive linemen Ben Bredeson and Nick Gates, who rotate at guard, and tackle Evan Neal.

Defensively, no full-time starters lined up on the opening drive for the Giants.

What was expected to be a low-scoring affair was exactly that in a battle of third-string quarterbacks. A 50-yard field goal by Miami’s Jason Sanders with 18 seconds left was the difference before a safety on the final play solidified an 11-6 Jets loss as the Dolphins clinched a playoff berth. Miami got in thanks to the Patriots’ loss to the Bills.

The Jets finished a once-promising season at 7-10, losing their final six consecutive games.

Joe Flacco got the start at quarterback for the Jets with Mike White injured and Zach Wilson benched. The 37-year-old was 18-for-33 with 149 yards.

Skylar Thompson started for the Dolphins with both Tua Tagovailoa and Teddy Bridgewater out injured. Thompson went 20-for-31 with 152 yards. There were zero touchdowns scored in the game.

For the Jets, the attention will now turn to what they do at the quarterback position after an ugly sophomore season for Wilson, the No. 2 overall pick from the 2021 draft.

Bianca Belair had an awesome year. The Raw women’s champion for 262-plus days matured into a true superstar this year. 

Her feuds with Becky Lynch and Bayley were both high-level programs. Belair’s match with Lynch at WrestleMania was one of the best of 2022, period. 

Add to that winning the Elimination Chamber, delivering in the first WWE women’s singles ladder match with Bayley and taking part in the first women’s WarGames on the main roster.

Honorable Mention: Becky Lynch, Bayley, Mandy Rose, Jade Cargill, Jordyn Grace.
