We’re looking at seven storylines to watch when the Eagles face the 49ers in Sunday’s NFC Championship Game

The Eagles (14-3) and 49ers (13-4) and on a collision course and have been for the better part of ten weeks after San Francisco started their winning streak.

The two teams last met in Week 2 of the 2021 regular season, with San Francisco defeating Philadelphia 17-11 as Jimmy Garoppolo threw one touchdown pass and ran in for another score.

All-Pro quarterback Jalen Hurts had an uneven performance in the loss, completing just 12 of 23 passes for 190 yards. He rushed for 82 yards, including a 1-yard TD in the fourth quarter.

The Eagles are much more explosive on offense after the addition of A.J. Brown and with both teams returning to practice on Wednesday, here are seven early storylines to watch.
