Featured Game | Philadelphia Eagles vs. San Francisco 49ers

Why the Eagles can mark

Philadelphia has one of the top offenses in the league. The Eagles ranked third in offense (28.1 points per game) and total offense (389.1 yards per game) during the regular season. Philadelphia broke the franchise’s season record for most points in a season with 477, surpassing the 474 mark the team set in 2014.

Additionally, linebacker Haason Reddick is a pass-rushing force. The 28-year-old, who was signed as a free agent in the offseason, had a career-high 16 sacks in the regular season, which tied for second in the NFL. He also led the league in streak sacks by five. He had 1.5 sacks in last week’s divisional round win against the Giants. See which team you should pick here.

Why the 49ers can cover

San Francisco’s fast attack has a strong matchup against Philadelphia’s run defense. The Eagles allowed 4.4 yards per carry for regular-season running backs, who ranked 16th in the league. That bodes well for 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey, who has 1,341 scrimmage yards (the most in the NFL) and 12 touchdowns (the most in the NFL) since he became the starting running back 12 games ago.

Additionally, San Francisco tight end George Kittle has played a role. Since week 15, the monster that catches the pass has received seven touchdowns. That’s two more touchdowns than any other player in the league in that span, despite not scoring in either of the two playoff games. See which team you should pick here.
