~Philly~ I feel that they are being extremely undervalued.

[MR.HARRYtheHAT]

I will be backing the Philadelphia Eagles on the money line this weekend. I love this spot at home for Philly, and I feel that they are being extremely undervalued. I genuinely think that the Eagles can blow out the 49ers this weekend. I understand that is a bold statement but let me let you enter my brain. Brock Purdy really struggled to move the football against the Dallas Cowboys, and now he faces a much better defense. He faces the No. 1 defense in football.

Secondly, he is going to be playing in the most difficult atmosphere of his life. Philly will be rocking, and communicating with his offensive line in this game will not be an easy task for a rookie quarterback. On the other side of the football, the Eagles have the best offensive line in football, and I trust that they will be able to put up points in this spot. This is an extremely tough spot for San Fran, and I will trust the home team to take care of business here.

Agree. The media loves the Brock Purdy story, and he has played well for a rookie..... but Seattle's D was plain awful, Dallas defended well until the 4th quarter, and both games at home. Also, in that Seattle game, the Seahawks were driving within the 20 yard line, 1st down, and then fumbled. IF they had scored, they would have led by 1 and the momentum could have changed. Philly secondary way better than Dallas and Seattle's. GL.

The NFC Championship Game features two teams with excellent defenses. San Francisco was first in points allowed and first in total defense while Philadelphia finished the season third in points allowed and second in total defense. Both offenses were strong as well, but expect to see matchup with a turnover ....7 points deciding the outcome. The difference will be the offense for Philadelphia, which was third overall in scoring and total offense. Final Score Prediction, Philadelphia Eagles win and cover ATS 24-17... -$150 on the Money Line 3 X Press [Bet Made at MGM Tuesday Morning]

Agree philly for me

Niner running game vs Eagles run defense is going to be the difference that tilts it to Niners.

A lot of good points by Eagles backers though making me debate it a little bit

H., I was just hoping that Philadelphia would make it back to the BIG DANCE halfway during this season ( Because my better half likes Hurts ) , as I am not a LOYAL FAN to any one team, I just wait till about the last 3 or 4 games in a season to back a team(s). And I do like Cincinnati to play Philadelphia in the Super Bowl, ought of curiosity who do you think will make it to the Super Bowl from the AFC?...I wish you good luck on your Philadelphia selection, as I will also "tail" you. ?

Eagles win, it’s the trenches and the Eagles O-line and D-line is better not slightly but Better!. I have a feeling that Hurts and the Eagles are going to do the same to San Francisco that they did to the Giants D-line. Eagles win easy by 7 points or more... both teams have kickers that have never missed a field goal in the playoffs.

Except . . . how will the Eagles adjust to the 49ers’ elite defense, which is yielding a league-best 3.4 yards per carry (compared to 4.6 for the Eagles’ D)? Jalen Hurts hasn’t been as productive on the ground since getting hurt in mid-December. Yes, they stomped on the Giants, which were surrendering the third-most yards per carry (5.2). So how might that translate on Sunday? The Eagles make their living on the ground. Yes, their receiving corps is near-elite, if not better. But Hurts isn’t a high-volume passer. Philly is No. 3 in rushing attempts and No. 1 in rushing scores with 32. For context, the No. 2 team has only 24 rushing TDs.

The Eagles defensive line is not better than the 49ers defensive line lol come on now

Defensive line play is more than just sack total / pressuring the quarterback

They can get to the quarterback but they are much worse as a unit against the run than SF

Agree 100%

It's a strength vs strength battle

Eagles rushing attack vs Niners rushing defense

Niners strength is a little bit stronger IMO

Agree completely, this is the key matchup. Philly has gotten a bit healthier and have the best pass rush in league no doubt but if SF can run the ball successfully to set up PA and shorter third down conversions this will be a close game. I don't see SF run offense being held down two consecutive games. I think Dallas speed gave them problems and put them off their game. Don't think Philly can match that speed especially at LB position.

Everyone points to rookie QB on SF side and for good reasons but don't forget these two quarterbacks have both played just two playoff games and are only a year apart in age.

I think Eagles best shot to win is force Purdy to make mistakes . Purdy is a rookie but he looks very poised in there so no reason to think he makes those mistakes based on what we’ve seen

If Eagles are over aggressive I think that’s asking for disaster. If McCaffery or Deebo catch a screen off an aggressive blitz and get to that second level…..game over

Has 9ers faced a running attack as diverse as Eagles? Let's look at their schedule:

Lost to Bears G1...running QB, 11 rushes 28 yard (Lance at QB for 9ers)

Week 3 Lost to Russell Wilson; Russ 6 carries 17 yards (Garop at QB)

Week 6 Lost to Marriota, 6 carries 50 yards (Garop QB)

Week 7 Lost to Mahomes 44-23, no rushing stats for or needed by Mahomes (Garop & Purdy QBs)...KC 112 yards rushing team

Week 17 WIN vs Vegas; Stidham rushes 7/34yds in a thrilling and arguably Vegas should have won...37-34 9ers win

Cowboys never used Dak as a threat to run (4/22yds) where week before he was 7/24 w/ a TD...

All that being said, I don't think 9ers have shown a good Def plan to stop the QB who becomes an X factor...and Philly has by far this years BIGGEST X factor....


Hurts completely negates 9ers Rushing D and the score will reflect that...IMHO. While other side is Purdy won't, as shown vs Boys, be much of a factor other than managing and trying not to turn ball over...IF Eagles have a better D than BOYS...do the 9ers even get a TD??? Remember, a flucky broken play to Kittle was the POD giving 9ers a TD in game...on top of a bad holding penalty that was unneeded on the sack of Purdy but hold on Kittle...

Dallas shut it down. Kept McCafferty in check all day. SF on the road wont do any better than that.IMO

Disagree.

Dallas played a heck of a game, but Niners started to wear them down late in it

I think they'll be more effective against Philly.

What does their Week 1-7 results have anything to do with this game? Also how do those stats show they can't stop a running QB?

What about Weeks 8-16? Why leave those out?

Raiders game was bad, probably worst in this form of the Niners. I'll give you that one, but wasn't much about a mobile QB obviously.

49ers have the speed on the line and linebacking corp to keep a guy like Hurts in check, as much as you can. Hurts is good, but Niners will be ready for him

Maybe we should talk about how that Philly defense gave up 40 to the Cowboys late in the season, and 49ers just gave up 12....why no mention of that? Seems a lot more relevant than a Week 1 game in Chicago
