The Philadelphia Eagles put on a dominant display in the first quarter of their wild-card matchup against the Green Bay Packers. The game started with a fumble by Packers’ cornerback Keisean Nixon on the opening kickoff, setting the tone for what would be a one-sided affair.
Capitalizing on the turnover, the Eagles quickly took a 7-0 lead with an 11-yard touchdown pass from quarterback Jalen Hurts to wide receiver Jahan Dotson. Kicker Jake Elliot then added a 31-yard field goal to extend Philadelphia's lead to 10 points.
On the defensive side, the Eagles stifled the Green Bay offense, allowing only one first down in the entire first quarter. The Packers struggled to move the ball, gaining just 16 yards compared to the Eagles' 103 yards of total offense.
The Eagles' strong performance in the first quarter has put them in a commanding position early in the game. With their offense clicking and defense shutting down the Packers, Philadelphia looks poised to continue their dominance as the game progresses.
