Wonder if we will see some offensive wrinkles on Sunday night

[Rayman70]

what we did last time was fine. Just execute it better, with less flags and we win. New wrinkles aren't needed. Lets do what we do and do it better.

Wrinkles as in ... getting a TD every time we are in the red zone?

We will be one step ahead of them all night.

we better have a 2-score lead on them when the 4th quarter starts. The refs will be coming in hot on us. We will lose if its a close game.

The Eagles clearly came out fired up early. But as that wore off the 49ers execution beat them. The 49ers are a very well coached disciplined team for the most part. Their blocking on outside running plays is a thing of beauty honestly. Every guy takes a defender and holds his block long enough to the RBs get through. They did it to Dallas and to the Eagles. If you cannot defend this, you cannot beat the 49ers.

I don't think the motion did anything to the Eagles. The 49ers just executed better.

There were a couple of things I noted in the game. First, Chase Young was not disciplined in his pass rushing. He kept getting caught up inside leaving the left side wide open for Hurts. Hurts likes to go to the right but he did get a couple of runs to the left. We should keep this in mind because Dak like to run left.

The Eagles were throwing a lot of crossing routes early, from their right to left. This looked intentional and it led to their first FG. Something for Dallas to look at. What did the Eagles see in the 49ers defense?

What hurt the Eagles the most is the 49ers did not give them anything. With the exception of the stupid Greenlaw penalty, the 49ers were not called for much and the Eagles had to work for what they got.

the best team in the league is the Niners. I agree. That said, all it takes is 1 team to get hot at the right time, then it changes things. All that really matters is getting into the playoffs. The new season.

....Eagles did bad job tackling. Some SF scores we're off on bad tackling.

In all, SF showed they are better team. Luck ran out in Philly.

Philly looked lost defensively after the first quarter as the 49ers start using a lot of motion and also bunch formations. Wonder if we may see McCarthy try to implement some of the same stuff the 49ers did with great success.

Now in fairness, it also helped that the 49ers, even with a suspect OL could run the ball with McCaffery. They found themselves in quite a few 2nd and 3rd and 5s or less. You do that, you take Philly's strength - rushing the passer - and temper it a bit.

This is true but the wildcard is Shanahan. No coach attacks another team's weakness like he does. To be honest, the strength is their defensive tackles. The rest of their D is pretty average IMO.

Anyone notice that when SF does this McCaffery and Deebo get the credit, but the Dak homies always give Dak the credit for YAC when it happens in Dallas?

Show me where I did this. Or anyone. Stop trolling for Dak content.
Seems like some members here are bent Philly got smoked.
