49ers radio broadcast: How to listen to NFC Championship vs. Eagles
By Peter Panacy
For fans who are unable to watch or stream the NFC Championship game between the 49ers and Eagles, the radio broadcast is always an option.
There are plenty of instances when the NFL’s championship weekend provides better and more entertaining games than the Super Bowl itself.
Perhaps that’ll be the case for the penultimate weekend of football when both the Cincinnati Bengals and Kansas City Chiefs square off (again) for the AFC title, while the Philadelphia Eagles host the San Francisco 49ers in the NFC Championship game.
For the latter, the 13-4 Niners hope to ride their recent surge of not having lost a game since October into Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia.
Philly, meanwhile, wants to justify finishing the regular season as the No. 1 seed with a ticket to Super Bowl LVII against the winner of the AFC Championship game.
Fans will have plenty of ways to watch the game, including some awesome Bay Area watch parties. Fox will broadcast the NFC Championship on television, and there are a number of different ways to stream the game, too.

However, and there are always a few of us, watching or streaming the game isn’t always feasible.
Especially if you plan on being on the road during the game or are at a place where your preferred device can’t actually stream the game itself.
Yes, the good old radio.
