What happened to the vaunted San Francisco Defense in Kansas City?

[Michelangelo]

SF was pretty beat up at the time and had a bunch of starters out when played KC.And they were playing with a weaker QB.LOL For what ever its worth Purdy has played 2 NFL road games.Seattle won pretty easily, LV and scraped by in OT.By far his toughest test in Philly.I did not fact check this but at Iowa St. Purdy 19-4 SU at Home, 11-12 SU on the road, 2-8 SU against ranked opponents, EAGLES seem like a ranked opponent.Great O line, lead NFL in sacks with 70, great corners and run the ball well.And real good offensively on 3rd and 4th and short.Won t see philly to often on 3rd and 1 or 4th in 1 in shot gun with an empty backfield. Sunday in that spot Dallas 2nd and 2 in the redzone in shotgun with an empty backfield, Prescott throws pick into double coverage.Someone a lot smarter than me needs to explain why you would have no back in backfield.Makes LBs read a lot easier if you ask me.Probably going to throw, unfortunately for cowboy backers to the wrong team.Sorry about off on tangent.

Overall I think what a few people have said, its one game and really does not matter.But I would say with protection and philly does have a great offensive line, SF s corners can be exploited. Secondary got shredded in that game against KC, but if I recall they were missing a few guys in secondary.Most teams cannot take advantage, because SF gets real good QB pressure.SF typically had problems with Russell wilson a mobile QB, I would put Hurts in the same category and am thinking he can be a problem for SFs D line.

Thank you. You're the only one in this whole thread who actually tried to offer an answer to the question I posed. Appreciate your perspective.

They had a bad game against KC, secondary wasn't healthy, Chiefs played well -- completely dictated the terms of the game. Best game KC played all year. Given that they're probably the best overall offensive team, with SF playing poorly, added up to a lot of points for them

I wonder what would've happened if Philly played KC that day

I also want to understand how Philly gave up 40 to Dallas

I gave you that answer already.

One simple answer.
Washington converted 12 of 21 third downs against what had been a dominant defense all season. The Commanders ran 81 plays and held the ball for 40:24 of the 60 minutes. Philadelphia turned the ball over four times, one more than its total from the first eight games.
They still pulled up to a 21-23 score early in the 4th - but aWash FG and a fumble at their own 1 yd line in the end zone gave Washington the last TD.

Equally good question. Do we have anyone from Philly or Dallas who can lend some insight to that question?

Similar loss like Washington
4 turnovers for Philly 1 for Dallas. Game was played by backup QB Minshew for Philly.
Turnovers usually decide who wins. as usual.
