NFL Wild Card Weekend: San Francisco 49ers Eliminate Philadelphia Eagles From Playoffs

Reese, Pam and Alex discuss the Eagles loss to the 49ers yesterday in the Wild Card round. The Philadelphia Eagles and San Francisco 49ers faced off yesterday in the NFC Wild Card round, with San Francisco coming away with a 23-19 win to end Philadelphia’s season. The game went back and forth, with both defenses making key plays, including interceptions by the Eagles. Philadelphia briefly took a 19-17 lead on a Jake Elliott field goal, but San Francisco answered late in the fourth quarter when Brock Purdy threw a go-ahead touchdown pass to Christian McCaffrey. With the victory, the 49ers advanced to the NFC Divisional Round where they will play the Seattle Seahawks. How does James feel about his Eagles losing? The New England Patriots beat the Los Angeles Chargers 16-3 in an AFC Wild Card playoff game last night at Gillette Stadium. The Patriots defense held the Chargers to just 207 total yards and no touchdowns, while recording six sacks and limiting Justin Herbert all night. Drake Maye threw for 268 yards and a touchdown and he also added 66 rushing yards. This marked the Patriots’ first playoff win since their Super Bowl LIII victory in 2019 and they now advance to the AFC Divisional Round to host the winner of the Texans‑Steelers matchup next week. How did Drake Maye look? How far can New England go?
