Since Foles took over for the injured Carson Wentz, the Eagles have won three consecutive games and with the Vikings' 24-10 loss to the Bears, Philadelphia punched its ticket to the playoffs as a wildcard.Â
Last season, Foles led the Eagles to a Super Bowl after replacing Wentz and became the first ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥ Wildcat of all time to be named Super Bowl MVP.
Does Foles have another run left in him? NFL playoffs begin on Friday, Jan. 4.Â
