Today at 4:25 p.m. ET, the Philadelphia Eagles (3-0) and San Francisco 49ers (1-2) take the field at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, Calif. for NFL Week 4 action. The game can be live streamed here. Philadelphia fans can hear all of the action on 1210 WPHT while San Francisco fans can do the same on KNBR 1050.
Philadelphia will look to remain unbeaten after defeating the division rival Washington Redskins 37-34 in Week 3 while San Francisco is looking to avoid going into a panic as it will try not to falter in a third straight game after falling to the Arizona Cardinals 23-14 a week ago.
The Eagles trailed by at least 10 points in all three of its opening games for the 2014 slate, but managed to bounce back and win every single one of them.
"We stick together and there's a great camaraderie," said quarterback Nick Foles, who leads the NFL with 326.0 passing yards per game, according to ESPN. "In the locker room during games like that, we lean on each other instead of blaming each other."
Foles is 75-for-123 (61.0 percent) for a league-best 978 yards with six touchdowns and two interceptions.
The Eagles have displayed all of their weapons through the first three games as running back LeSean McCoy has 175 rushing yards off of 60 carries with a score and wide receiver Jeremy Maclin leads the team with 296 yards off of 16 receptions and has found the end zone three times.
Philadelphia's one problem this season thus far has been its offensive line thanks to some injuries.
The 49ers will hope to take a page out of their book from last year as they fell to 1-2 a season ago and ended up in the NFC Championship Game.
"We've been in this position before where there is an ebb and a flow to the season. We're in it now," coach Jim Harbaugh said via ESPN. "That's the great challenge for our football team and I have great confidence that we'll attack it."
One point of concentration will be to get quarterback Colin Kaepernick right as he has thrown three picks this season, all in Week 2, and has just four touchdown passes. Kaepernick is 66-for-94 (70.2 percent) thus far this season.
San Francisco has said it wants to get running back Frank Gore in the action more, though he does lead the team with 139 yards on the ground off of 35 carries and has added a touchdown.
Kaepernick has had some chemistry with wide receiver Michael Crabtree thus far in this young season, as he has connected with him 19 times for 187 yards and two touchdowns.
The Eagles look to improve to 4-0 while the 49ers will try to avoid a third straight loss when these teams take the field this afternoon at Levi's Stadium in California.
