The New Orleans Saints appear to be enjoying the fact that they’ve knocked the Philadelphia Eagles out of the playoffs.
Running backs Mark Ingram and Alvin Kamara both wore ski masks in the locker room after New Orleans beat Philadelphia 20-14 Sunday, a reference to a trend the Eagles tried to get going late in the season as a rallying cry.

It’s a pretty obvious reference to the Eagles encouraging fans to wear ski masks as a reference to the team “stealing” games to get into the playoffs. The Saints were obviously well aware of this and came prepared to celebrate their victory by rubbing a little salt in the wound.
The Saints advance to face the Los Angeles Rams in the NFC Championship, where there will be other scores to settle. The taunting may not be over.
