The San Francisco 49ers face the Seattle Seahawks for the third time this season, this time with a trip to the NFC Championship Game on the line.

With Brock Purdy under center, the 49ers are 4–0 in Seattle, and this matchup looks very different than Week 18. Trent Williams is back, Ricky Pearsall could return, and San Francisco may finally have its core pieces in place after weeks of injuries and short rest.

The key? Stopping the run and forcing Sam Darnold to win the game. Seattle gashed the 49ers for 180 rushing yards in their last meeting, but San Francisco’s young defensive tackles have emerged, and veteran Eric Kendricks could be the difference over the middle of the field.

We break down:

• Why this is an “eggshell game” for Sam Darnold

• How the 49ers can slow Seattle’s run game

• The impact of Trent Williams’ return on the offense

• Life without George Kittle and who can step up

• Why Brock Purdy is built for this moment in Seattle

This is a film-based, matchup-driven Divisional Round preview of one of the most familiar — and dangerous — playoff showdowns in the NFC.

The San Francisco 49ers pulled off a stunning Wild Card upset over the Philadelphia Eagles, knocking out the NFC’s top contender in dramatic fashion. Brock Purdy delivered a poised playoff performance, outdueling Jalen Hurts, while Christian McCaffrey once again proved why he’s the engine of Kyle Shanahan’s offense.

We break down how Kyle Shanahan out-schemed Philadelphia, why the Eagles’ offense struggled to get AJ Brown involved, and what went wrong for Hurts in the biggest game of the season. Plus, we discuss the impact of George Kittle’s injury, key defensive moments, and what this win means for the 49ers’ Super Bowl path.

Is this the most complete playoff performance of the Purdy era? And did the Eagles’ season end the same way it unraveled late last year? Full analysis, film takeaways, and reactions inside.

The San Francisco 49ers (12-5) head to Philadelphia to face the Eagles (11-6) in a Wild Card matchup loaded with history, tension, and unanswered questions.

The last time the 49ers were at Lincoln Financial Field, they dropped 40 points and embarrassed Philly. The last time these two met in the playoffs, Brock Purdy’s season ended with a torn UCL. This time, the stakes — and the matchups — are different.

Philadelphia’s offense has quietly become one of the most inconsistent units in the NFC, ranking 19th in scoring, 26th in second-half points, and leading the NFL in three-and-outs. Jalen Hurts continues to push the ball deep, but accuracy, pocket pressure, and his inability to attack the middle of the field could play right into San Francisco’s hands.

On the other side, Kyle Shanahan’s offense may be uniquely built to attack Vic Fangio’s defense — especially if Christian McCaffrey gets rolling against a Philly run defense that’s allowed 125+ rushing yards in every loss.

Key topics in this breakdown:

• How the 49ers can disrupt Jalen Hurts with pressure

• Why Philly’s offense ranks near the bottom of the NFC playoff field

• The impact of Trent Williams and Ricky Pearsall’s injury status

• Why this could be a Christian McCaffrey takeover game

• Matchups featuring George Kittle, DeVonta Smith, A.J. Brown, and Dallas Goedert

• How San Francisco can exploit light boxes, soft zones, and middle-of-field windows

This is a matchup-heavy Wild Card preview that explains exactly how the 49ers can win — and what could derail them if injuries strike at the wrong time.

The San Francisco 49ers were held to just 3 points in a 13-3 loss to the Seattle Seahawks in Week 18 — their worst offensive performance in years. The loss knocks the 49ers out of the No. 1 seed and drops them to the 6-seed, setting up a Wild Card playoff matchup with the Philadelphia Eagles.

We break down what went wrong offensively — the run game erased, offensive line breakdowns, Shanahan’s play-calling, Brock Purdy under constant pressure, and the missing impact of Ricky Pearsall. We also discuss the defense — 18 missed tackles, 180 rushing yards allowed, but still only 13 points given up.

Is this loss a warning sign — or a wake-up call before the postseason?

The San Francisco 49ers have finally (kinda) severed the ties with wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk by placing him on the reserve/left team list.

Today's we're diving into the team's options for Aiyuk including a potential release or trade, the salary cap and financial ramifications, and what it means for the 49ers future draft and wide receivers plans.

Could Jauan Jennings be re-signed with the money or has the team been burned by enough receiver deal to let him walk as well?
