Daily News | Eagles vs. 49ers predictions: Rounding up the experts’ NFC championship picks
So who are the football experts — both locally and nationally — picking to win on Sunday? Here’s a roundup of their predictions, starting right here with our own beat writers ...Just like in the divisional round against the Giants, all three of our Eagles beat writers are backing the Birds this weekend. The main difference this time? All three see a close game.
Ultimately, [Jalen] Hurts will have another opportunity to prove why he is a finalist for NFL MVP at just 24 years old. His decision-making against a disciplined and aggressive [DeMeco] Ryans-led defense will be a key factor to Sunday’s outcome. If Hurts doesn’t become fazed by the defense’s pre-snap looks, and he can quickly identify through the opposition’s zone coverages, he should provide the Eagles with an excellent opportunity at clinching their second conference title in five years.
