Capping off week 11 of the NFL season. We have the San Francisco 49ers taking on the Arizona Cardinals in Mexico. With this wild NFC West matchup this game had potential to be one of the better games of the season except for Kyler Murray will miss this game due to a lingering hamstring injury, this will be Murray’s second consecutive game missed and most likely eliminate the Cardinals from playoff contention and end their season. Let’s go through each half of football and give my overall thoughts.
With both teams struggling in the first quarter the 49ers came out swinging in the second quarter and scored a touchdown off a Jimmy Garoppolo touchdown pass to wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk, Cardinals superstar, wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins had a nice first half and has looked to have a great connection with quarterback Colt McCoy. Colt did have a crucial pick in the mid second quarter, and really gave the 49ers another chance to take a quick lead.
The second half is all about the Niners as quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo had one of his best games of his career with four passing touchdowns, two to tight end George Kittle and two to receiver Brandon Aiyuk. This game was an absolute blowout as the 49ers won 38-10 and Cardinals quarterbacks Colt McCoy and Tracy McSorley struggled with this top tier 49ers defense, both of them had no touchdowns and an interception.
The 49ers look to get back on track and improve their win record as the Cardinals go to keep their playoff hopes alive in hopes that star quarterback Kyler Murray returns shortly. The 49ers advance to 6-4 as the Cardinals fall to 4-7 on the year.
