San Francisco 49ers @ Philadelphia Eagles (Wildcard) | Sunday Jan. 11th 1:30PM PT FOX

If Purdy can hit his check downs earlier and taking what defense gives, we may have a better shot. Seattle had a good game-plan but some plays were there to be made.

We had a pretty impressive run given all the injuries but ironically losing the Bears game would've had us better setup for a run in the playoffs. Would've been able to rest guys for the Seattle game, probably avoid injuries to Winters and Bethune and who knows what else(I'm bracing for that injury report this week)

We're going in beat up and playing arguably the toughest opponent this week in the NFC. Eventually you just don't have the bodies to compete at the level needed to win.

Having said that, nothing would make me happier than having us go into Philly again and ending their defending champs run and move on to whomever.

You treat the Niners like you treat your kids. "Nice try kiddo. There's always next time 🙌 "

We need Keion White back full time for this game.

Have him and Sam Okuayinonu on the ends, with the big tackles in the middle.

Keion and Sam are big strong dudes who can hold the edge, but can chase/affect rbs bouncing runs to the outside.

It didn't seem like White was on the field much of the game, I believe he was nursing an injury. But he needs to be out there, because he can also rush the passer... as well as has deceptive speed to chase down Hurts if runs out of the pocket.

.

That all being said, I just know in their first drive the Eagles are gonna try to steal some quick points with some play action, knowing our defense/back end is paranoid/trying to prove themselves by stopping the run.

Iggles are going to try to jump out to a quick lead so they can take the Seahawks approach of forcing us to slowly move up the field on offense..... banking on mistakes.

Addition by subtraction....hopefully Kendricks is good to go.

Hendricks is an upgrade over Bethune

We need winters. Sounds like Ricky is probably out

If either of those guys don't suit up, our win % goes from 5% to 0%

Can you point out some of these plays that were there to be made?

If none of the injured LBs can play, it would likely be:

MLB: Eric Kendricks
WLB: Garret Wallow or Curtis Robinson
SLB: Curtis Robinson or Garret Wallow https://t.co/q30gbruTpA

Hell naw I don't want Willow out there... he should have never been signed. Don't care if he's good on special teams. I'd rather us have a better linebacker, that is ok on special teams.

Go find someone, or someone from our past. If Kyle has Willow out there starting fuuuuuuuu.

Edit- is there no one on the Texans' practice squad?

Edit 2- they have someone who's 6-1 240 who runs a 4.4-4.6... K.C. Ossai....who's been in their system all year. Bring his ass over!
