Seattle’s arch rivals in the Bay Area, the San Francisco 49ers, suffered yet another humiliating defeat in the NFC Championship. Denied once more from a trip to the Super Bowl, the 49ers were suffocated 31-7 by the Philadelphia Eagles.
Perhaps the biggest takeaway from the game, aside from Philly’s dominance, was the injury to rookie quarterback Brock Purdy. Ever since stepping in for the injured Jimmy Garoppolo, Purdy proved he is capable of being a starting caliber quarterback. However, this could be in jeopardy due to his injury. Purdy has reportedly torn his UCL.
