San Francisco and Philadelphia will do battle one more time in the postseason<\/a>, this time for a chance to advance to the divisional round. The Eagles beat the 49ers in January 2023 in the NFC title game, 31-7. San Francisco bounced back to beat Philly the following December, 42-19. The three meetings between these teams have been played in Philadelphia, with the Niners holding a 2-1 edge.<\/p>\n

The 49ers had a rough patch in the middle of the season, going 3-3 following a 3-1 start. Sitting at 6-4 in November, some had begun to write the Niners off. But then the team got Brock Purdy back from injury and reeled off six consecutive wins <\/a>before dropping the final game of the season to Seattle last week. That loss cost the 49ers the No. 1 seed and home-field advantage in the playoffs. With the Super Bowl in Santa Clara this year, San Francisco could have potentially played at home for the entire postseason.<\/p>\n

Philadelphia won its third NFC East title in four years but also struggled down the stretch. The Eagles went 3-4 from Week 12 on and even lost three in a row during that time before bouncing back to win three straight. Philly closed the season with a loss to Washington due in large part to head coach Nick Sirianni resting starters despite still having a chance to win the No. 2 <\/a>seed in the NFC.<\/p>\n

49ers-Eagles start time: 4:30 p.m. ET
Location: Lincoln Financial Field | Philadelphia

A flag was thrown on the 49ers\u2019 touchdown, which made it appear as if the score could be called back. However, the penalty was on the Eagles\u2019 Jalen Carter for roughing the passer.<\/p>\n

The 49ers break out a trick play to take the lead!<\/p>\n

Skyy Moore begins an end-around run to the right, but stops to throw to a wide-open Christian McCaffrey. He snares the catch for a 29-yard touchdown.<\/p>\n

McCaffrey made an impressive over-the-shoulder catch for the score.<\/p>\n

The 49ers\u2019 fullback makes a big play! Kyle Juszczyk gets 27 yards on a pass from Brock Purdy on first-and-10 from the San Francisco 33-yard line.<\/p>\n

The third quarter ends with San Francisco at the Eagles\u2019 29-yard line. A 6-yard run by Christian McCaffrey, 3-yard gain from Skyy Moore and 2-yard rush up the middle by Purdy has the 49ers at third-and-1.<\/p>\n

The Eagles get three points after Thomas Morstead\u2019s poor punt. The offense only managed 23 yards in 10 plays, as the 49ers defense tried to make up for the special teams gaffe.<\/p>\n

On third-and-13 from the San Francisco 27-yard line, Jalen Hurts gets a 4-yard run. That leads to a 47-yard field goal by Josh Elliott to give the Eagles a 6-point lead.<\/p>\n

As if another three-and-out for the 49ers\u2019 offense wasn\u2019t bad enough, Thomas Morstead shanks a 25-yard punt that will give the Eagles the ball at San Francisco\u2019s 46-yard line.<\/p>\n

\"IanSun, January 11, 2026 at 3:43 PM PST<\/p>\n

The 49ers haven\u2019t been able to run the ball. Christian McCaffrey shook loose for a 9-yard gain on San Francisco\u2019s previous possession. But overall, there has not been much production out of the running game.<\/p>\n

The Philly fans are booing after Jalen Hurts makes a 5-yard pass to Dallas Goedert on third-and-19.<\/p>\n

Braden Mann punts 56 yards, but the kick goes into the end zone. The 49ers will take over on their 20-yard line with the touchback.<\/p>\n

\"IanSun, January 11, 2026 at 3:37 PM PST<\/p>\n

Jalen Hurts scrambled to the right for a 10-yard gain, but the play was wiped out on a holding penalty by Cam Jurgens.<\/p>\n

A promising drive for the 49ers ends with Brock Purdy throwing an interception to Quinyon Mitchell at the Eagles\u2019 45-yard line.<\/p>\n

Prior to that, San Francisco had driven 41 yards in eight plays, highlighted by a 15-yard catch from Demarcus Robinson.<\/p>\n

Purdy made the throw while backpedaling due to pressure up the middle from the Eagles\u2019 Byron Young.<\/p>\n

Philadelphia began the second half with an 8-yard run by Saquon Barkley, apparently getting back to running the ball.<\/p>\n

But Barkley was tackled for a 1-yard loss on the next play, followed by Jalen Hurts missing him with a short pass on third-and-3 from the Eagles\u2019 37-yard line.<\/p>\n

Braden Mann punts 58 yards and the 49ers will begin their series on their 5-yard line.<\/p>\n

Nick Sirianni confronting A.J. Brown on the Eagles\u2019 sideline was a notable visual from the first half.<\/p>\n

Brown had 3 catches for 25 yards, targeted five times by Jalen Hurts.<\/p>\n

Brock Purdy completed a 15-yard pass to Demarcus Robinson and 14-yard throw to Jake Tonges, but it\u2019s not enough to get the 49ers to the Eagles\u2019 44-yard line.<\/p>\n

On third-and-5, Purdy ran for 7 yards but fumbled the ball out of bounds. One second was left on the clock. But since Purdy was in bounds when he fumbled, a 10-second runoff ends the first half. No field goal try for the 49ers.<\/p>\n

San Francisco\u2019s defense steps up after getting a field goal, forcing the Eagles to punt. A false start penalty on Fred Johnson didn\u2019t help Philadelphia\u2019s cause.<\/p>\n

The 49ers will take over on offense with 1:51 remaining from their 23-yard line following a 43-yard punt by Braden Mann.<\/p>\n

The 49ers close the Eagles\u2019 lead to 13-10 on a 36-yard field goal by Eddy Pineiro.<\/p>\n

That finished off a 59-yard drive that stalled in the red zone despite Christian McCaffrey gaining 9 yards on two carries. He was stopped for -1 yard on third-and-1 at the Philadelphia 17-yard line.<\/p>\n

San Francisco tight end George Kittle was carted off the field after suffering an apparent ankle injury to begin the 49ers\u2019 latest drive.<\/p>\n

With Kittle grabbing at the back of his ankle, the fear might be that he sustained an Achilles injury.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"San Francisco and Philadelphia will do battle one more time in the postseason, this time for a chance…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":403558,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[436],"tags":[13278,29897,49,48,514,1518,5886,7675,82,19055,93541],"class_list":["post-403557","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nfl","tag-49ers","tag-brock-purdy","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-nfl","tag-philadelphia","tag-san-francisco","tag-seattle","tag-sports","tag-the-eagles","tag-the-niners"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/403557","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=403557"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/403557\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/403558"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=403557"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=403557"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=403557"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
