Eagles have beat more good teams than the Niners IIRC
Sparks will fly, but more sparks will fly in AFC playoffs, so many good teams, and the best one will win it all.

You don’t thing the niners are the best team in the NFC right now?
If Purdy plays well, yeah, they're probably the best team in the NFL overall in terms of talent.

But they haven't played a ton of good teams

If the Eagles make it there, they will play the toughest team they have played all year. The Niners are battle tested and clearly a better, all around team. The Eagles have had a soft schedule all year and they barely beat some bad teams.

Also, the eagles have backed into the playoffs. They lost two in a row and snuck buy the Giants 2nd and 3rd stringers to avoid 3 in a row. Sure it was without Hurts, but look at what the niners ave done with any QB. 11 in a row and blowing teams out! That is the sign of a great, all-around team. Again, the niners are clearly the best team in the NFC.
If the Niners had one very good CB to go along with their OK DB instead of a Bad CB and an OK CB I would be much more confident or at least not as worried. :brick:

Niners played 4 playoff teams and their last seven and destroyed them all. The Eagles played 3 playoff teams in their last 7. They went 2-1 and barely beat the Giants backups.

Who is the best team they've beat? A banged up Chargers team?

It’s The playoffs so anything can happen. But on paper, and the eye test, they are clearly the best team in the NFC. Obviously, it doesn’t mean guaranteed wins, but I wouldn’t bet against them.

I know. It’s crazy. Usually don’t see it much at the pro level, but Seattle playing very sloppy today.
I feel I see that like twice a game since Nagy was the OC in KC back in 2017.

Purdy still screams fool's gold to me. There were people talking themselves into Jimmy G early on until he lost the wrong games.

Seattle was rightfully inspired. SF much superior team this year.

Feels like it's worth mentioning the Chargers defense is 10th in dropback EPA allowed going into the game despite missing Bosa most of that time.

Those Bosa bros are very good, for sure.
