The 49ers quickly flipped the script from "boo hoo" to "woo hoo!" In crushing the bedraggled Philadelphia Eagles, 42-19, on their home field, the 49ers on Sunday looked like the top team in the NFL. Now, the question is whether the NFC West-leading 49ers can continue to build on that performance en route to the possible No. 1 seed in the NFC playoffs. If the 49ers beat the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday and the Eagles lose at Dallas, the 49ers would take over the top spot in the NFC. Of course, the 49ers' win in Philadelphia did nothing to "avenge" last year's defeat in the NFC Championship Game. But it did save them a lot of embarrassment after seemingly not giving the Eagles any credit for winning that game after the 49ers lost their starting quarterback in the first quarter. And the two guys who did the most talking for the 49ers also stepped up in the biggest of ways. In this edition of 49ers overreactions, we go to Threads. And one of our followers wonders if the 49ers will have the wherewithal to make sure those players stick around for a while. It will be impossible to keep both Aiyuk and Deebo long-term. (nathanmwilliams) Overreaction? Yes. Will it be difficult for the 49ers...

A few weeks ago, I wrote that the Niners are the grittiest team in the NFL. That could not have been truer on Sunday night.
