The San Francisco 49ers have been relaxing during Wild Card weekend with their first round bye, the Philadelphia Eagles on the other hand are already out of the playoffs now. Superstar Nick Bosa has been resting as well, and now that the Eagles season is over, it appears that Bosa and the 49ers did in fact give the rest of the league the blueprint to stopping Jalen Hurts.
Since Bosa made his statements in the media following their demolition of the Eagles, they have gone 1-5 the rest of the way getting absolutely demolished by many of the worse teams in the NFL, including the New York Giants and Arizona Cardinals.
A few weeks back after the game Bosa shared his blueprint with the NFL about how to stop Hurts and it seems like the rest of the league listened to him. He was quoted after their 42-19 victory over Philadelphia saying:
“You see it on tape,” Bosa said Thursday. “Obviously, we put the blueprint out there. Hopefully, the Cowboys watch the tape. Jalen’s looking at the rush every play, you just have to be disciplined.”
The San Francisco 49ers Ended The Philadelphia Eagles Season
It appears that many teams watched what Bosa and the 49ers did to the Eagles because they were absolutely awful after that game for the rest of the year. The Eagles were 10-1 going into that game and did not manage to win 12 games this season including the playoffs.
The only game Philadelphia won after that was against the Giants with some very questionable calls throughout the game. The 49ers literally ended the Eagles season as they showed the rest of the league how to stop their offense.
The 49ers had revenge in mind when they played Philadelphia this year as they lost to them in the NFC Championship last year. Now as they get ready for their first playoff matchup against the Green Bay Packers, the Eagles are already in their off season. I’m sure Bosa and the rest of the 49ers team is very happy to see them go down.
Now head coach of the Eagles Nick Sirianni is on the very hot seat and may not be with the team next season. Rightfully so, as this Philly team looked terrible down the stretch going 1-6 in their last seven games. They did not make any adjustments in the end of the year offensively, and the rest of the NFL must have watched their game against the 49ers very closely.
Bosa and the 49ers now will have quite an easy path to the Super Bowl as both the Cowboys and Eagles went down in the first week of the post season, and San Francisco has home field advantage until the Super Bowl. For the Eagles however, they need to make tons of moves this off season if they want make adjustments.
CRAZY: Since Nick Bosa's "Blueprint" video of how to lock Philly down, the #Eagles have a 1-5 record.
