This should be a fun matchup. If you like smash mouth football, this should be must see TV. If you like no defense and the ball flying all over the yard, your game is at 5pm
I'm a huge Niners fan and homer of course. Winning 12 in a row, there's no doubt the Niners played better the last half of the season. And I have zero care about what Philly did to NYG. That's a garbage playoff team and didn't even belong. Philly hasn't really played someone as salty as the Niners D (#1 in almost every category with all-pros at every level) and the Niners probably just got done playing a defense of similar talent to Philly...but Philly has the horses on O that Dallas really just doesn't. I do think Purdy will play substantially better against Philly than he did vs Dallas (even though on a closer look he didn't play that bad, just ok). He just needs to make the 2-3 plays that end up being the difference an avoid the big costly plays (which he's avoided thus far). I obviously love Shanahan and the matchups he'll create.
Philly is good for a reason. I'm crazy excited about the matchup. Should be a battle.
Niners by 3.
