The Philadelphia Eagles shouldn’t beat the San Francisco 49ers.
The 49ers are more talented. A Week 1 over the Atlanta Falcons doesn’t prove the Eagles are good enough to beat a legitimate Super Bowl contender.
But ... what if the perceptions about the 2021 Eagles were wrong? What if the Birds really are good?
It’s possible. Sure, the Falcons might be really bad. But good teams beat down inferior competition and that’s just what Philly did down in Atlanta.
We saw enough to learn that the Eagles aren’t a bad team.
