The 49ers dropped 34 points on the Giants this Sunday, amassing 380 yards, 25 first downs and averaging 5.8 yards per play. San Francisco hopes to be a little healthier in Week 10. Maybe this is the week Brock Purdy returns under center. Along with the Niners’ QB1, Kyle Shanahann hopes WR Ricky Pearsall could be back in action.
The Rams got a scare from WR1 Puka Nacua, who left Week 9 with a rib injury. However, Sean McVay told reporters he was OK and held out due to Los Angeles’ rolling the Saints. The Rams scored 34 points of their own, totaling 438 yards, 30 first downs, and 5.7 yards per play.
Shanahan and McVay is one of the best coaching rivalries in the biz, with these head coaches finishing with a 10-7 Over/Under count in their 17 regular season run-ins since taking those coaching jobs in 2017, including 4-1 O/U the past five meetings.
