Eagles vs. 49ers Betting Guide: Odds, Lines, Props & Picks originally appeared on NBC Sports Philadelphia
The Eagles continue through their gauntlet of tough opponents with a home tilt against the 8-3 49ers. Many believe this could be a preview of this year’s NFC Championship Game, much like last year. This game, however, will feature a healthy Brock Purdy, who is having a solid season. Let’s see what the numbers tell us.
Eagles vs 49ers – Sunday 4:25 p.m.
Point spread/ML – Eagles +3/+130 49ers -3/-160
Total Points: 48
Analysis: Surprising that the Eagles are a 3-point dog at home here. Even more surprising that the line hasn’t moved very much since it opened. Not sure there will be a ton of points scored here. Both teams have strong defenses, and the weather report isn’t promising – a 50% chance of rain Sunday in South Philly.
Picks: 49ers ML, UNDER 48
Passing Props (O/U)
Jalen Hurts – 240.5 yards, 1.5 passing TD, 33.5 attempts, 22.5 completions
Brock Purdy – 260.5 yards, 1.5 passing TD, 32.5 attempts, 21.5 completions
Analysis: Hurts has been through quite a few tough pass defenses, and while the team keeps winning, his numbers haven’t been so strong. He’s averaged 185.7 pass YPG over his last 3, and the 49ers have allowed more than 240 pass yds four times this season. Purdy has put up some strong numbers this season (261 pass YPG), but he hasn’t really been tested all that often, facing just two top-12 pass defenses (CLE, DAL). Nevertheless, the Eagles’ pass D comes in leaking some oil, ranking 29th of 32 teams.
Picks: Hurts UNDER yards, UNDER completions; Purdy OVER yards
Rushing Props (O/U)
Analysis: The ground game will likely be where this game is won or lost. Both run defenses rank in the top-3, and no one in the game gets more touches than McCaffrey (241). The Eagles have allowed 50+ yards to a RB once in five home games: 51 yards to Tony Pollard of the Cowboys. The 49ers pass rush will likely make a runner out of Hurts, who ran for…
