I think it's funny that people say we haven't beat anyone, when the only team with a worse SOS than us is the eagles. They are a very good team though. I think we will win, but it'll be tough and in a tough environment.

On Eagles they have a leader and dual threat at QB, one of the best one two punches at WR in the league, one of the best run games in the league, one of the best d fronts in the league, and one of the best secondaries you will find with solid special teams. Apart from that we have nothing to worry about.

Key imo will be stopping their explosives and winning the special teams battle

And home field advantage with psycho fans. And the best cheesesteak around.

Eagles can be run on. gonna need CMC and Mitchell to be efficient.

Hurts is banged up though, that changes their offense a lot. They have a few other key injuries too. They're a very good team but we can beat them. We are a very good team too

The keys to this game are simple. Niners defense will do their thing as always, however the offense needs to win time of possession to keep Hurts on the sidelines as much as possible. This is the only way I see Niners winning this game. A shootout will favor Philly.

Gotta run on em. They are lethal if you just sit back and throw or get in third and longs. They carved up Vikes who have a PB QB and best WR in the game.
Fortunately we have a historically good run game.

Are the Eagle's offense one of a kind in the NFL? I know the Cardinals ran the air raid offense, but I think their run games are very different compared to the Eagles.

It does scare me, but it should also scare Philly fans. They haven't seen a defense as tough as ours this year.

Tell it to NYG
I'm not sure the exact nature of the injury but he just put up an 84 QBR which is extremely high level performance, and he gets a week more to rest up. I'd say he's playing without limitation at least I'm not seeing any. Go to the first drive 40+ yds throw in the air plus he was running per usual. They may not be as cavalier with his sneaks that's about it.

Hurts is a f**king monster. Dude is a bonafide powerlifter who can deadift 600+lbs. Footnote: I mocked him to the Colts at the top of the first but they didnt listen to me.
He ran for 82 against us last year but the thing that scared me was that he wasnt afraid to chuck it deep against us down the sidelines and now he has AJ Brown

We play who is on the schedule
Brock has already beat 4 playoff teams
-Miami
-Seattle x 2
-TB
-Dallas
And washington had a playoff caliber defense with Chase Young returning
