Eagles don't have the individual talent but their DL depth is insane and is going to basically force Shanny to run no huddle/hurry up.

Hargrave, Sweat, Reddick and Graham all had double digit sacks, Fletcher Cox throws on another 7.

Eagles have the number 1 pass rushing defense in the NFL.

You're right that McCaffery's healthy matters because the best way to beat the Eagles is to just ground and pound them and win the possession battle. It's what the Commanders did to them. The long Eagles loss under hurts was to the Commanders who held the ball for over 40 minutes. Lots of 6 and 7 minute drives to score. If the Niners can extend drives they have their best bet, if not the next best bet is to gun at the Eagles older defensive line and go fast.

Eagles have the 'sack guys' but Dallas had higher pressure rate which as you know is the most important thing.

Overall I get the defense is better but I think the playbook is more open against Philly.

I hope Niners don't wuss out and let Bosa and Johnson battle it out.

Game day.

Going to be tough but Niners all the way baby.

34-27

Give me Eagles -14

I think they win this in a blowout

[chop2chip]

Definitely a fumble

[Garmel]

Some early bad luck for SF.

Niners D has been really good. Shame about the Purdy injury, they cant do much on offense now.

Niners clearly the better team. Still have to hope for a miracle and maybe Jimmy G is ready for the Super Bowl.

How the Niners haven't benched Ward after multiple stupid penalties baffles me.

Though I assume they're doing the Seahawks thing, if you commit Illegal Contact/Holding every play they won't call it every play.

Well that was fun while a small glimmer of hope remained.

Niners have half time. If anything it would be scary for them to be up by a lot as Kyle Shanahan has a rep of choking after half time.

[zitothebrave]

Sucks that Johnson also got hurt. I didn't want any excuses, I wanted the Niners to lose properly.

[zitothebrave]

Yeah you can't punch people after the play. Niners defense is showing it's flaws. They're not disciplined enough to handle an L.

[zitothebrave]

Niners are classless. Bunch of pathetic losers.

[zitothebrave]

Damn you konw it's loud in KC when the players can't hear the whistles. I thought I heard something.

[cajunrevenge]

Niners going to roll

lol

[zitothebrave]

Eagles opponents scored 14 Points this post season, they scored 69, nice.

[zitothebrave]

Wow that's a massive turnover for the Bengals.

Wow that's a massive turnover for the Bengals.

Nothing out of it. I guess they stopped KC while they were driving, but all it's gonna end up doing is burning clock.

[Carp]

Oops wow. Huge balls to go for it there
