Philadelphia Eagles versus San Francisco 49ers: How to watch, radio call
You can catch Sunday afternoon’s game between the Philadelphia Eagles and the San Francisco 49ers from Lincoln Financial Field on television, radio and online, and we’ve got the information on how you can do so.
Once upon a time a very wise man said that the San Francisco 49ers didn’t just wear gold as one of their team colors. They had actually created a “Gold Standard”. Okay, maybe it wasn’t a wise man. Come to think about It, that was actually said on one of those Madden video games, but you get the idea. Here we are. It’s Week 8 of the 2017 NFL schedule, and the 49ers head east for a 1:00 PM meeting with the Philadelphia Eagles.
San Fran is a long way from that gold standard we just mentioned. They’re, actually, still in search of their first win. To be honest, this is a game the Eagles should win. If they lose, it will be one of the biggest upsets of the week. There should be no pressure though. If Philly plays the way they’re capable of playing, they should win this one going away.
