49ers QB Brock Purdy (elbow) out for now, changed by seven-team veteran Josh Johnson
The primary quarter of the NFC Championship sport couldn’t have gone a lot worse for the San Francisco 49ers. The Philadelphia Eagles scored a landing on their opening drive partly after Kyle Shanahan failed to challenge a DeVonta Smith catch that wasn’t. Then, on the 49ers’ opening drive with 7:03 left in that first quarter, the 49ers tried to dam Eagles mega-pass-rusher Haason Reddick with a decent finish, with predictable outcomes.
The officiating crew, led by referee John Hussey, initially referred to as this an incomplete move, however after Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni challenged that, it was modified to a fumble name… which meant that defensive deal with Linval Joseph, who recovered the fumble, ought to have been given a landing.
Not that San Francisco was in any higher form after that play. Quarterback Brock Purdy went to the sideline and appeared to inform Shanahan that he couldn’t throw.
So, for his or her subsequent drive, the 49ers put in backup Josh Johnson, the 13-year veteran who has performed with a number of groups all through his profession.
Issues weren’t any higher for Johnson when he bought in there. The 49ers saved blocking Reddick with non-offensive linemen (receiver Jauan Jennings on this case), and that continued to be an issue.
The 49ers had higher give you a wiser plan for Reddick, or they might get blown proper out of Lincoln Monetary Area.
