49ERS at EAGLES Pregame Thread - 2023 Season Week 13

IMO the Eagles are the best team in the NFL right now. Im not sure I get why we'd be favorites in their house since until we prove otherwise they are the superior team as their record would indicate.

Its not a trap game its a trap bet!!! And that's why the 49ers are favorites.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but it took AWHILE for the Eagles to pull away in the NFCC.

Outside of that opening drive with the 4th down catch that wasn't, we did a great job containing Hurts if I recall correctly.

They were up 21-7 at the half. Jalen had 11 carries for 39 yards and a rushing TD. Their offense averaged 3.4 ypc. The passing game was virtually non existent after that 4th and heave it downfield play that occured on their first drive of the game. They gained almost as many yards in penalties as Hurts had passing. Those defensive penalties allowed their offense to get into the redzone 5 of their 6 trips. We couldn't stop their RPO's in the redzone, leading to 4 rushing TD's.

💯. Our defense was so worn out with 3 and outs with no QB. They pretty much just boxed our running game.

I think if we can get a two score lead on them by the end of the 3rd quarter they aren't coming back like in weeks past. Their defense I bet after these past couple of weeks being on the field for 166 plays/72 minutes will be tired and dragging ass. Our defense will be the best they've played so far this season and we are the best at preventing big plays which their offense has been relying on to get them back into these close games.

Not really, outside of the 3 game losing streak, the 49ers have been blowing out teams week in & out, while the Eagles have been squeaking by with luck and questionable calls going their way all year. Also I'm sure fatigue plays a factor for the Eagles while Niners are coming off 10 days of rest

Those "questionable calls" are what I'm worried about.

This of course. Kyle has been at his best this year in orchestrating 1st drive points and when the Niners have a lead they're nearly impossible to come back on. I'm sure Kyle realizes this too and will have the guys ready to play!

I wouldn't be surprised if Gipson has the game sealing pick on a deep pass to Brown.
You can tell the 49ers are making a concerted effort not to trash talk in the lead up.

Excellent move imo.

I posted the same thing yesterday. No need to talk. Just go out there and show them what Niner football is all about.
They will be first to clinch playoff spot with a win and some small help from LAR. It will happen. Just not by us. Go-kick their ass.

PLAYOFFS? PLAYOFF TALK ALREADY?

Philadelphia clinches playoff berth with:

  1. PHI win + LAR loss or tie OR
    PHI win + DET loss + GB loss or tie OR
    PHI tie + LAR loss + GB loss or tie + ATL loss or tie OR
    PHI tie + LAR loss + GB loss or tie + NO loss or tie

I would love to see Gipson get a good, solid shot(clean) on Brown early in the game just so Brown has that in his mind each time he has a pass coming his way.
For all the talk about the eagles O line and how good they are, their system doesn't protect their QB as well as ours.
