49ers Fans Eagles Wild Card NFL Playoffs Jalen Hurts

LeSean McCoy Is Right: The 49ers are cornballs and they’re cooked on Sunday in South Philly

LeSean McCoy said the quiet part out loud when talking about the Philadelphia Eagles hosting the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday in South Philly and honestly, it needed to be said.

LeSean McCoy guaranteed that the Philadelphia Eagles are going to handle the San Francisco 49ers in the Wild Card round. He’s absolutely right. The general consensus is that the Eagles are going to handle them easily and you’d be a fool to disagree.

Here’s the truth. The 49ers are a bunch of cornballs. Always have been. Fake tough fanbase. Crisis actors masquerading as sports talk radio hosts.

A franchise that talks like a dynasty and acts like a runner up banner factory.

That’s saying something, considering Eagles fans have to deal with the Dallas Cowboys twice a year.

Shady is right. San Francisco stands no chance on Sunday in South Philly.

LeSean McCoy: “Little Brock Purdy”

There are plenty of football reasons why. The Eagles are getting healthy. The 49ers are limping into the playoffs. Brock Purdy just got out of a game where he looked completely overwhelmed. Christian McCaffrey was erased. The Eagles pass rush is licking its chops. But honestly, we do not even need to go that deep.

Let’s talk about what actually matters.

Under Nick Sirianni in the playoffs, the Eagles are undefeated at home. 5-0. No losses. No drama. No excuses. They are 0-2 on the road which holds no weight on Sunday and 1-1 at neutral sites, which tells you everything you need to know. When the games matter and they are played in Philadelphia, the Eagles stand on business.

Lincoln Financial Field in January is not Levi’s Stadium with better lighting. It is cold. It is loud. It is hostile and unforgiving to teams that already look shaky up front. The 49ers are walking into a buzzsaw and pretending it is just another road game.

Honestly, at this point, I am just waiting for 49ers fans to do what every other loser fanbase does and mess with the Rocky Statue outside the Art Museum.

They cannot help themselves. They never can. They think it is funny. They think it is clever and every single time, it ends the same way.

The only redeeming quality of that statue is the Rocky Statue Curse. That part rules.

Opposing fanbases love dressing it up before big games, and every time they do, their team gets smoked. Here is the running list, because history deserves receipts.

Reminder: None of this has anything to do with the statue. There is no magic. No curse energy. No Philly sports gods floating around the Art Museum steps. It is just loser fanbases doing loser fanbase things and then acting shocked when it blows up in their face.

No one in Philadelphia actually cares about that chunk of metal. It could be hauled into the Schuylkill tomorrow and the city would move on by lunch.

What does matter is this. The Eagles are at home. The 49ers are rattled. LeSean McCoy said the part everyone else was thinking. And Sunday is shaping up to be another reminder that Philly in the playoffs is a completely different animal.

Cornballs beware.

  1. The Eagles only wish they had a QB like Purdy. We Niner fans are loyal. 😂. What’s the excuse?

  4. Typical Eagles fan. Spouts off all your “toughness” and how great your team is, then go cries in the corner when you get beat. Man up and accept it and move forward. But you all won’t, you’ll make excuses and be angry and miserable and violent as usual.
