The San Francisco 49ers likely have a tough road ahead of them if they're able to beat the Philadelphia Eagles in the wild card round.

The Rams are moving on to the divisional round of the NFC playoffs after a 34-31 win over the Panthers on Saturday afternoon. Panthers quarterback Bryce Young hooked up with Jalen Coker for a 7-yard touchdown with 2:39 left in the fourth quarter to put Carolina up 31-27, plenty of time for likely MVP quarterback Matthew Stafford.

Jeremy D’Astous (2) and Antoine Roy (1-1) countered for the Blue Eagles (13-5-1-0), who are tied with the Acadia Axemen (12-4-1-2) for first place with 27 points each. Alexis Arsenault and Simon Maltais were credited with helpers.
