Cam Jurgens summed up his view on the difference between the Philadelphia Eagles and Washington Commanders in the NFC championship game with a devastating line.

The Eagles' Pro Bowl center came off the bench while dealing with an injury and helped his team win the NFC title game 55-23. After the game, he was asked what the difference in the game was and had a definitive answer.

"Emotions don't win games. Talk doesn't win games. Execution does," Jurgens said, per Mike Jones of The Athletic. "And they had a lot of damn emotion, and they were talking a lot, and we executed
and we're going to the Super Bowl."

The Eagles executed all game long and the Commanders struggled all game, turning the ball over four times.

Jurgens had a back injury and was relegated to the bench to start the game. His replacement, Landon Dickerson suffered a knee injury and Jurgens replaced him.
