NFL NFC CHAMPIONSHIP. 2023. Sunday, Jan. 29th. 49ers at Eagles. 3:00 P.M. ET. FOX.

Purdy out with a elbow injury

 

Now Johnson out, in concussion protocol.

McCaffrey is the 3 Rd QB.

What a bad break for SF.

 

NFL is so rigged lol

 

Purdy can't throw the ball, awfully hard to stage a comeback running 3 yards at a time.

 

Shame, I was rooting for the guy.

 

Eagles are in.

Can they beat either the Bengals or Chiefs?

 

It’s just great to have Ray “The GOAT” back starting a game thread. Baz is an amateur.

 

What makes you say that?

SF and Purdy were the darlings on the season.

 

A few of those drives were filled with penalties early on and it really changed the complexion of the game.

 

Since I watched the game, any particular penalty stand out as not really being a foul?

I don’t recall any questionable penalties.

 

I feel those defensive holding / PI penalties can be called on every single play if they wanted to. I think 2 were called on the same drive to put Philly up after the Niners had momentum following the McCaffrey TD.

 

So had those not happened, you think they would have been more competitive despite not having a QB?

 

Not how it ended up, but at that time it was an important turning point. You watch, KC will win the Superbowl. Ask me why later.

 

Purdy went down before the mccaffrey TD

 

I get that, but the game was still in question. I’ve watched enough football to know that one or two plays can break a game wide open.

EDIT: Up to that point Philly’s offense hasn’t done much aside from the dropped 4th down play that wasn’t challenged and the Niner D was pretty much stopping them.

 

'The Refs Totally Cost Us The Game,' Says Guy Whose Team Lost By Four Touchdowns

 

Geez, both games featured teams that were like mash units. Everyone was limping around the field. Hate to see the SF QBs go down. As for the Eagles, they are legit and I think are favored by a pt or two against the Chefs.
