Six straight touchdown drives for the 49ers after the first quarter helped them beat the Eagles on the road, 42-19.
“We didn’t coach good enough. We didn’t play good enough,” Head Coach Nick Sirianni said. “You can’t play that way and coach that way against a really good team.”
Wide receiver Deebo Samuel found the end zone three times and quarterback Brock Purdy threw for four scores as the visitors piled it on.
“They got after us good today,” Sirianni added.
The Eagles (10-2) lost for the first time at home this season. They now head to Dallas to take on the 9-3 Cowboys next Sunday night. The Cowboys are just one game back of the Eagles after beating the Seahawks on Thursday night.
Here is how the game unfolded:
First Quarter
“That was tough on us to start the game fast and be only up six points,” Sirianni said.
Second Quarter
“That’s a tough team to tackle. … A little bit uncharacteristic day for us,” Sirianni said of the team’s tackling.”
It’s a clash of two of the NFC’s top teams as the 10-1 Philadelphia Eagles host the 8-3 San Francisco 49ers in a rematch of the 2022 NFC Championship Game. It appears that these squads are on another playoff collision course with the Eagles leading the charge in the NFC East and the 49ers comfortably ahead in the NFC West. The Eagles could clinch a playoff spot for a third straight season with a win and some help.

Nicholas Morrow scouts the San Francisco offense and Ben VanSumeren gets the call of a lifetime.
