And the 49ers have covered three games in a row and nine out of their last ten games after beating the Dallas Cowboys 19-12. The 49ers will be in an unfamiliar role against the Philadelphia Eagles next week. For the first time in three months, since San Francisco played the Kansas City Chiefs back in Week 7, the 49ers won’t be favored to win the game.

The Sportsbooks in Las Vegas expect this to be a 49ers’ win by 27-17. They were the biggest favorites of Wild-Card Weekend when the opening odds were announced, even bigger than the Bills (-9.5) over the Tua Tagovailoa-less Dolphins.

Gary A. Vasquez-USA TODAY Sports Brock Purdy had not trailed for a second in his three wins with the 49ers. He briefly trailed in his debut versus Dolphins when he took over for an injured Jimmy Garoppolo but hasn’t looked back since. Sunday was a different story for the seventh-round rookie from Iowa State. The 49ers’ other-worldly defense didn’t live up to its moniker, allowing quarterback Jarrett Stidham and the Raiders to throw for 365 yards and tally 34 points.
