The Philadelphia Eagles did what many people expected them to do on Wild Card Weekend, defeating the Green Bay Packers in a game that wasn’t particularly close.
It felt like the Packers might come back at times, but the Eagles’ defense held up, and their offense was able to get past the Packers’ strong defense when they needed it most.
While this was a great win for the Eagles, something was unsettling about this game, as Robert Griffin III highlighted on X.
One of the biggest stories of the game was a lack of involvement from A.J. Brown, who had just one catch for 10 yards.
Griffin was furious with this statline, saying, “If the Eagles want to win it all, A.J. Brown has to be more of a focal point in their passing game. 1 catch for 10 yards in a game? He should have that PER DRIVE.”
Eagles have the defense to win it all.
Eagles have the running game to win it all.
Eagles have the OL/DL to win it all.
Eagles have the QB to win it all.
Eagles have the WRs/TE to win it all.
The Eagles have to find their passing game to win it all.NO WAY IN HELL A.J. Brown…

Brown demonstrated the value he brings to the team with his only catch of the game, a highlight-reel-worthy grab.
Jalen Hurts wasn’t able to find him for the rest of the game, which might have been frustrating for Brown, although, he didn’t seem bothered on the sideline.
Brown has been vocal about his role in the past, so it will be interesting to see if any additional fallout will follow him in this situation.
If anything, this could just be a warm-up game for him and Hurts, hoping to heat up in the next few rounds of the playoffs.
It won’t get any easier, however, so the team has to bring their A-game if they want to advance to the NFC Championship.
