Eagles edge rusher Haason Reddick made the most significant play of last season's NFC Championship Game when he hit 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy as Purdy tried to deliver a pass early in the contest.
Beating KC was nice because we showed we could finally beat Andy Reid, Mahomes, and do it at their own ball park.
But we also knew it was nothing more than a regular season game in the end. KC still has just as much a shot to still get the First round bye like the Eagles do.
For the 49ers fans, it feels like they’re way more focused on a revenge game against us than actually going all the way. That this game decides the SB team from the NFC, which isn’t the case at all.
To them this will be a SB type of win because of how long they’ve yearned for this while Eagles are more focused on securing the bye despite the potential of some setbacks.
That’s the difference between the two fanbases.
