Welcome to yet another edition of Crunching The Numbers, a weekly game preview in which I compare the Eagles against their upcoming opponent using a few select statistics. If you want to read more about why I chose the statistics I use, or see an archive of past entries, check out this hub.
Typically, I’ll use some space at the beginning of the post to critique my suggested “game plan” from the previous game. However, for the 49ers I instead opted to discuss how the Eagles might lose because the matchup was incredibly lopsided statistically.
