Eagles vs 49ers

The Eagles and Niners are two of the more storied, blue-blooded franchises in the NFC and they'll do battle for a trip to the Super Bowl in South Philly ...

It's worth noting that Owens' final game as a 49ers came against the Eagles as well, a 31-28 Birds loss in 2003. Believe it or not, the Eagles and 49ers have only played once in the playoffs, and never in the NFC Championship game. McNabb is expected to miss the rest of the regular season with a broken ankle, but in Detmer's first start since 1999, he was outstanding for nearly three quarters. Filling in tremendously for Donovan McNabb, Detmer passed for 227 yards and two touchdowns and rushed for another score before leaving with a dislocated left elbow late in the Eagles' 38-17 win over San Francisco on Monday night. It was two seasons ago, in Nick Sirianni's second game with the Eagles in 2021. Jalen Hurts ran for a fourth quarter touchdown and converted the two-pointer to cut it to 17-11, but the comeback effort stopped there.

San Francisco advanced to the NFC title game after a 19-12 win over Dallas on Sunday afternoon and the top two seeds in the NFC will now meet at Lincoln Financial Field for a chance to face the winner of Kansas City and Cincinnati in the Super Bowl.

Brock Purdy may not have much to celebrate when he's in Philadelphia this Sunday.

All that being said, the 49ers have had a similar schedule to the Eagles during Purdy’s winning streak, and didn’t have to play in a division in which no team finished with a losing record. In the NFC West, the Niners won 13, the Seahawks 9, while the Rams won just 5 and the Cardinals 4. They score touchdowns, mainly because of the threat of Hurts to run inside the 20. Of all the defenses in the NFL, San Francisco is best equipped to keeping Hurts’ running game under control, but 760 yards rushing and 13 TDs make him a weapon inside the red zone they haven’t seen before. Were one to do that, one would have to hit the Eagles for their easy victory against New York. While one day may not seem like a lot, in the life of an NFL player/coach, it is a big deal. That’s one of the reasons when you play a good team like that and you hold them to 12 points.” This is not a new phenomenon with Shanahan, by the way, and you can bet, with a healthy Hurts at the controls, Nick Sirianni won’t do the same thing. The two plays above aside, just before halftime, the Niners had the ball with just under two minutes left, and with the score tied 6-6, Shanahan allowed 25 seconds to run off the clock before running a play in his own territory, scared to give the ball back to Dallas before the half. In fact, there are more reasons for the 49ers to fear the Eagles than vice versa. And a huge shoutout to Jonathan Gannon for a brilliantly executed and planned defensive scheme against a Giants team that had come into the Linc pretty hot. Given their 12-game winning streak, it’s understandable, although the Eagles’ 14-3 regular season record and 15-1 record with Jalen Hurts at quarterback are hard to bet against, especially after their 38-7 slaughter of the Giants on Saturday.

We're looking at 10 key stats to know in advance of the NFC Championship Game between the Philadelphia Eagles and San Fransisco 49ers.

Philadelphia is tied for 2nd in the NFL in rushing yards and leads the NFL in rushing first downs. His NFC Championship opponent, the 49ers allows a 41% rate on passes of 25+ yards (16-of-39), for 687 yards, five touchdowns, two interceptions, and a 106.6 rating allowed, which puts San Francisco in the bottom five. Even ignoring the NFL-best 15 interceptions (and NFL-best 3.4% interception rate), Eagles opponents are averaging just 4.80 net yards per pass attempt, the top rate in the league.

The Eagles are also averaging 4.87 yards per carry, good enough for 5th best. [All-Pro](https://theeagleswire.usatoday.com/lists/eagles-news-nfl-all-pro-takeaways-jalen-hurts-mvp-patrick-mahomes/) quarterback Jalen Hurts had an uneven performance in the loss, completing just 12 of 23 passes for 190 yards. [Football Perspective](https://footballperspective.com/the-eagles-rushing-offense-is-better-than-their-opponents-passing-offense/) looked at the Eagles’ offense and the machine is so efficient that even when Philadelphia focuses on the running game, they still average more yards per play than their opponents do through the air. San Francisco’s dominant defense allowed just 98 explosive plays in the regular season, which tied for the fourth-fewest in the NFL according to TruMedia. [Nick Bosa had two sacks](https://theeagleswire.usatoday.com/lists/philadelphia-eagles-49ers-takeaways-observations-17-11-loss/) and San Francisco’s defense shut down Philadelphia was dominant against Atlanta in a 32-6 season-opening win.

The 49ers will be underdogs for the first time in a long time as they travel to take on the Eagles in the 2023 NFC Championship game.

3 scoring offense from the regular season, it’s not hard to see why the 49ers will have a tough time as they did against the Cowboys. Combined with the No. 2 seed in the conference. San Francisco will enter the NFC Championship game as a 2.5-point road underdog to Philly, according to the oddsmakers at DraftKings. The 49ers will be betting underdogs for the first time in a long time as they travel to take on the Eagles in the 2023 NFC Championship game. [Eagles](https://insidetheiggles.com/), in the NFC Championship game.

Here's a complete breakdown of 49ers vs. Eagles in the 2023 NFC championship game, including our expert's pick to reach Super Bowl 57.

The Eagles have been the best team in the NFC From early in the season, but the 49ers have been working to gain on them fast in the second half. The 49ers have won 12 consecutive games and seem possessed to make up for being shot of winning the Super Bowl twice of late under Shanahan. Nick Sirianni has been great for the Eagles with his brash and dynamic personality. Kenneth Gainwell, with his open-field and red zone closing pop, can be more effective out of the backfield at times than Miles Sanders. He just needs to protect the ball and be more selective about his running spots vs. The 49ers offensive line will facilitate them moving the ball in a diverse, balanced attack. Philadelphia's offensive line can also work to keep Nick Bosa, Arik Armstead, Samson Ekubam and the rest of San Francisco's front-four pass rushers at bay. That means they'll be fine trusting Jalen Hurts to throw often and when contain breaks on a dropback, to take off for key yardage. That plays into the game plan to which the 49ers should adhere with Christian McCaffrey and Elijah Mitchell in the backfield and rookie seventh-rounder Brock Purdy at quarterback. The Eagles' defense can present some of the same problems with a tough pass rush and tight coverage behind active linebackers. ET, Fox) to see who will advance to play either Kansas City or Cincinnati in Super Bowl 57 in Arizona in Feb. 2 seed, they will go on the road to face the No.

The Philadelphia Eagles will face off against the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday, Jan. 29 for the NFC Championship.

We went out there and shut down a playoff team and one of the best teams in the league this year.” Burrow is 3-0 against Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs. San Francisco had a few more opportunities at turnovers but couldn’t hang on to a couple of picks. Allen had only one turnover late in the game, but he misfired on some throws and didn’t click with his receivers. “He wants the ball,” Allen said of Diggs, who had just four receptions for 35 yards. Allen kept his head down and didn’t look up when wide receiver Stefon Diggs approached him on the bench and yelled a few times in his direction midway through the fourth quarter.

[Massachusetts sports betting](https://www.masslive.com/betting/massachusetts/)is coming soon. “I dropped one early, but it’s one of those things you kind of have to keep going on, and in playoffs, you understand that they count times two when you get them.” The 49ers are heading to their second straight NFC title game after defeating the Cowboys 19-12 in the divisional round Sunday. This guy is a stud. Christian McCaffrey scored the go-ahead touchdown on a 2-yard run in the fourth quarter and San Francisco’s defense did the rest.

The Eagles return to the NFC title game for the second time in six seasons. Can Philly return to the Super Bowl? Here's my betting advice.

The under has cashed in four of the Eagles' last five overall and in 15 of their previous 21 overall postseason games. While there's no denying the 49ers 12-game winning streak, San Francisco has not had to play a dual threat QB like Jalen Hurts or as complete of a team as the Eagles over that stretch. San Francisco is also 11-4 to the under in its last 15 versus an opponent with a winning record. It's had an impact as neither of the Championship games have a total of more than 48 points. Although, some stats not trending in favor of the Eagles is that they are only 3-8-1 ATS in their prior 12 after scoring 30 points the game before and have failed to cover in four of their previous five against NFC opponents. Tipico has no influence over nor are any such revenues in any way dependent on or linked to the newsrooms or news coverage. Gannett may earn revenue from Tipico for audience referrals to betting services. The 49ers went 13-4 ATS and have covered 23 of their last 31 overall. Here are my picks and predictions for the NFC title game with odds powered by I believed New York would keep it close with its healthiest roster all season but Philly covered the -8.5 spread with ease. The team has been red hot covering 10 of their last 12 including both games this postseason. at Lincoln Financial Field.

The FOX broadcast team for the Eagles-49ers NFC Championship Game on Sunday will be Kevin Burkhardt, Greg Olsen, Erin Andrews, and Tom Rinaldi.

Sporting News breaks down Sunday's NFC championship matchup between the top-seeded Eagles and second-seeded 49ers with an against-the-spread and over/under ...

Brock Purdy is just the fifth QB in NFL history to make it to a conference championship game in his rookie season, the first since Mark Sanchez took the Jets to the AFC title game in '09. San Francisco's likely going to have to manufacture long, multi-play drives, allowing the Eagles to do just enough to grind out a three-point home victory. While Purdy's done exactly what the 49ers have asked him to do, the difference in this one could be an explosive pass play, and Hurts' willingness to take shots gives the Eagles the upper hand in that category. Hurts ended the game with a high aDOT of 14.6 yards (99th percentile among QBs), and the Eagles posted a 52-percent drop-back success rate (71st percentile). While both players are currently listed as day-to-day, expect a heavy dosage of McCaffrey (calf) and Mitchell (groin) on early downs to give Brock Purdy more manageable third-down distances. Conversely, the 49ers' offense should look to stress the Eagles' defense on the ground rather than through the air. Hurts needs to stress the 49ers' defense with his arm, and he can post a solid success rate as a passer. The Eagles got back to their dominant ways in the divisional round, breezing to a 38-7 win over the Giants. Philadelphia's in search of its first Super Bowl appearance since claiming Super Bowl LII in 2018, while San Francisco is itching to get back to the big game for the first time since suffering a heartbreaking loss in Super Bowl LIV. Purdy also led the 49ers on a go-ahead, 91-yard TD drive at the start of the fourth quarter that was the difference in the game. The 49ers lead the all-time series over the Eagles 20-14-1. The Eagles likely get to -3, but if the spread balloons to -3.5, expect some buyback on the 49ers.

With San Francisco, Kansas City, Philadelphia and Cincinnati all playing in the NFL, conference championship games, Sporting News ranks the four Super Bowl ...

A Super Bowl without those teams would thrill Philly and Cincy, but it may fall short on casual fan buzz. The Giants upset the undefeated Patriots in Super Bowl 42 and the Patriots survived the repeat-minded Seahawks Super Bowl 49. Philadelphia comes from the Greek for "brotherly love." There's also the fact that like Travis, Jason also starred in college at Cincinnati. In sitcom lore, Philly boasts the Fresh Prince, Janine Teagues, Charlie Kelly, Ronald "Mac" McDonald and of course, Dennis, Dee and Frank Reynolds. It would also be nice to have another matchup of top seeds with the best two teams from the regular season playing each other in a rare battle of No. Mahomes battling Jalen Hurts also would decide the "real" MVP on the field. This matchup would also mean one of two recent Super Bowl losers will have some redemption. It would guarantee one of the future Hall of Fame Kelce brothers, Travis or Eagles center Jason, would earn a second ring. Many of the things Reid did in Philadelphia are still part of the team's offensive foundation. They will travel to face the No. The AFC championship game presents a rematch in Kansas City.

We're looking at 12 things to know about the Philadelphia Eagles NFC Championship opponent the San Francisco 49ers.

4 in the league over the course of the season. According to Football Outsiders, San Francisco ranked 24th in DVOA against deep passes. 3 in third-and-short conversion rate (68.5 percent). His average depth of target is 7.61 yards beyond the line of scrimmage, good for 20th. It’s the longest touchdown streak since Terrell Owens in 1998. It puts him in some rare company in the 49ers’ history. The 49ers have won 12 consecutive games, including seven with rookie Brock Purdy, and will potentially offer the toughest test of the season. San Francisco ranks 31st in third-and-short defense, allowing opponents to convert 69.6 percent of the time, including in the playoffs. That 0.43 EPA per drive would have been good for No. San Francisco held their opponents to 277 points on the season, the fewest in the NFL and by a 49ers team since 2013 (272 points). It is now the sixth time that the Niners have held its opponents to under 300 points in a season since 2000 and for the first time since 2013. The San Francisco 49ers finished the regular season 13-4, marking their best regular season record since 2019 (13-3) and the third time since 1998 that the team won 13 or more games in a single season.

With preparation underway for the Eagles, we're looking at where the San Francisco 49ers are most vulnerable ahead of the NFC Championship Game at Lincoln ...

Davante Adams had seven catches for 153 yards and two touchdowns against the Niners in Week 14. 2 overall seed and with the reputation of having the NFL’s top defense. The Eagles rank No. Brown and DeVonta Smith to have 100+ yards receiving each. 3 in third-and-short conversion rate (68.5 percent). Patrick Mahomes passed for 423 yards and three touchdowns in a 44-23 Chiefs win, while the Falcons also were able to solve the riddle, rushing for 168 yards as quarterback Marcus Mariota completed 13 of 14 passes with two touchdowns and ran for 50 yards and a touchdown as Atlanta converted 9 of 14 third downs in an upset win over San Francisco.
