Last year, the NFC Championship Game was thought to be an all-out battle between two of the best teams in the league that both wanted to put on a show and advance to the Super Bowl.
Unfortunately, for the San Francisco 49ers, the team had to deal with numerous injuries at the quarterback position, namely Brock Purdy going down with an injury that required offseason surgery.
Ultimately, the loss of Purdy under center proved to be too much to handle for the 49ers, as San Francisco couldn’t contend with the Philadelphia Eagles, who went on to win and face the Kansas City Chiefs in the Super Bowl.
On Sunday, the 49ers will get a chance at redemption, as they will go head-to-head against the Eagles in a rematch of the NFC Championship Game.
There’s been no shortage of trash-talk on both sides ahead of this highly anticipated NFC showdown at Lincoln Financial Field, and Emmanuel Acho of FOX Sports believes the player with the most pressure on Sunday will be star wide receiver Deebo Samuel, via “Speak” on FS1.

With Samuel talking a lot of trash before this epic battle between potentially the two best teams in the league, it is no surprise that Acho would say the most pressure will be on the talented wideout.
It will be interesting game, to say the least, on Sunday with bragging rights on the line and quite possibly the distinction as the best team in the NFL ahead of the NFL playoffs.
