Interesting 49er game last night. Very short week game, so I would be leery of sweeping generalizations. Some takeaways:
- Garoppolo has now had sixteen starts for the Niners, a full season's worth. He's completed 67.6% of his 490 passes for 4,066 yards with 24 TDs and 15 INTs. That's a 96.5 rating with 8.3 ypa (same as Nick Mullens). The rating makes him the 15th rated NFL QB over that span. Last night, however, Garoppolo had 4 TDs and 317 yards on 28/37 passes for a 136.9 rating and 95.3 QBR. For purposes of comparison, Dak Prescott leads the NFL in QBR for the season at 78.8 (Garoppolo is #7 in the NFL at 68.6). He's 14-2 as a starter. Hope it keeps up.
- Helping with that rating was new WR Emanuel Sanders who seems like the real deal. Seven receptions for 112 yards.
- Breida averaged 5.2 ypc in 15 carries.
- Niners had three sacks and six tackles for loss. No turnovers (on either side).
Bottom line, Niners played great for 50 minutes and good enough to win for 10 more minutes.
