And I think Howie is motivated as hell to sign Shaq Leonard after today. LB was a big reason they lost this game.
I didn’t say that, I just don’t feel that SF is that dominant.
Cue the late Joe Paterno on this one. You're never as good or as bad as you look in one game. This Niners team lost 3 straight games for a reason. And the Eagles had been running on fumes the past couple of weeks.
Diff sport yo10-2 is still really good. A lot of teams would kill to be 10-2.
Why does that sound familiar?
Niners also traveled across the entire country to play in South Philly, in the rain and a week after playing their biggest rival. Everyone can make excuses, it's easy. The fact is the 49ers dominated the Eagles at home for 3 straight quarters.
That’s true, they did dominate tonight. If they get by the Ravens on week 16 they might run the table. The post season will be interesting this year.
These teams may meet again in January. Games like January and today are how rivalries are born. I think we have ourselves one now. Now we see how these teams respond. Congrats on a great Niners win. They played really well. I thought Shanahan schemed brilliantly to capitalize on the Eagles weak LBs and zone coverages. How many big Deebo passes did they have that way?
I agree and that's why settling for those two early FGs killed them. They can't play from behind each week and play to their strengths running the ball. At least not from 14-15 down in the second half. The defense let them down today. It's the worst an Eagles D has looked in years. They need to fix it. I think Howie will be super motivated to sign Shaq Leonard after today.
That's the key for Philly... They still control their own destiny for home field. Another matchup against the Niners in January back in Philly should be much tougher. After today, it's tough to imagine, but should be.
It’s getting late in the season. The Ravens will fold. It’s an annual event.
