Freaking 49ers can't keep QBs

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

What a horrible turn of events for SF. 

[teganslaw]

Calling it early. Eagles taking this game.

Yeah see y'all at 6:30 lol

[Happy2BeHere]

Such a blow to the 49ers to lose purdy 

[NFLfan]

Josh Johnson has not been with them long. Hopefully Purdy will come back.

[Derakynn]

Bruh is this the Colts tryna block elite pash rushers with tight ends?

Unfortunately for Josh Johnson, he's not playing us.

Isn’t that what we do?

[RollerColt]

Welp… 

[NFLfan]

I see Purdy taking practice throws.

[Chrisaaron1023]

Come on Philly y'all got a free td

49ers missed the challenge 

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

This game is such a mess. Hard to watch.

[Smoke317]

I’ve got no sympathy for the 49ers. They should’ve drafted Fields. Go Eagles.

When Cirianni was the OC, was he well thought of by Colts fans?

Yes and most of us wish he was the one calling the plays years and years ago.

We didn’t know what to really think of him since Reich called the plays. We knew Nick at least helped with design, but we didn’t realize how good he was until he left…

[ColtsGermany]

How much bad luck can a team have..... And overcome?

Yes. I think he has the opposite personality as Reich and it worked well. Reich ended up with too many yes men after he left.

He was just there.  No one really paid much attention.  Every one was complaining about the offense.  Reich was getting all of the attention.

He has the look/temperament of a head coach. He has a lot of energy. I like him. He seemed focused on the whole game, not just the offense. 

[Smoke317]

Sirianni isn’t calling the plays this year.  Ironic he could delegate the responsibility and Frank couldn’t. 

[Happy2BeHere]

Niners could’ve used a safety there. So close

[Smoke317]

That 3rd & 5 run at midfield on the 2nd Eagles drive is looming large. They were supposed to extend the lead.

Yes. I think good coaches focus on the whole game. JMO. If I were interviewing potential head coaches, I would want to know if they plan to call plays. If so, I would not want to hire them.

 

I see I have been spelling his name wrong. Thanks!

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

If Shanahan pulls this game off with Johnson that would be incredible. Just block well and let playmakers do rest and they can win.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Something else is Jimmy g is almost ready to practice. Could he come back in SB if purdy isn’t ready.

[NFLfan]

CMC!!

[crazycolt1]

Cmc is a dog 

[Chrisaaron1023]

Woooow

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

This is about to get nuts.

[Smoke317]

That run was filthy. 

[Happy2BeHere]

What a run by mcaffrey 

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

SF is the team Reich tried to build. Quick passing then letting playmakers get YAC.

[teganslaw]

I was too early. I thought that the Eagles would put up more points by now. Credit to the 49er defense. 

[Chrisaaron1023]

These flags..

[bluebombers87]

Man these refs are pulling for Philly. They call the hands to the face and miss the just as obvious hold on Kelce.

[Chrisaaron1023]

I'm just expecting a flag every play now

[Happy2BeHere]

Hopefully purdy can start in the 3rd quarter
