The Philadelphia Eagles and Los Angeles Rams are expected to feature in a snow game this Sunday.
The two teams are vying for passage to the NFC Championship Game, in which the winner will play the Washington Commanders following their upset win over the Detroit Lions on Saturday night.
However, they will not be playing in enjoyable conditions, as a Winter Storm Warning has been issued for the hosting city.
It has already begun snowing, with the temperature projected to be around 34 degrees when the game starts at 3:00 p.m. ET.

Either way, it’s going to be a very cold game, with snow expected on the field.

It should be an intriguing contest.
