A high-stakes NFL Week 13 game is on tap Sunday as the Philadelphia Eagles (10-1) host the San Francisco 49ers (8-3) at Lincoln Financial Field in a rematch of last year's NFC Championship Game.
If the 49ers are looking for a weak point to attack, it's the Eagles' pass defense. Philadelphia averages the second-most passing yards allowed in the league at 277.50. It's a stark contrast to its rush defense, which has allowed the second-fewest yards.
Brock Purdy averages 261.0 passing yards on the season. He's coming off a Thanksgiving beatdown of the Seattle Seahawks — the 49ers led 24-3 at halftime, so he didn't need to throw much in the second half and finished with 209 yards.

Prior to the Thanksgiving game, Purdy had consistently exceeded his passing yards prop in seven of eight games, taking advantage of the plethora of weapons he has at his disposal in George Kittle, Deebo Samuel, Brandon Aiyuk and Christian McCaffrey.
Key Eagles injuries — like linebacker Zach Cunningham (hamstring; out) — should create opportunities for big plays in the middle of the field. Philadelphia also plays man coverage at the seventh-highest rate, which should benefit Aiyuk (4.16 yards per route run).
This game is expected to be close — San Francisco is only a three-point favorite — so the 49ers may not be able to rely on the running game to chew clock. Look for Purdy to connect with his playmakers and exceed his passing yards prop.
