The 49ers overcame the NFL’s most emotional week in recent memory to win their 10th straight and forge into the playoffs as the No. 2 seed.
SANTA CLARA – Here is how the 49ers graded in Sunday’s 38-13 win over the Arizona Cardinals in the regular-season finale to clinch the NFC playoffs’ No. 2 seed:Brock Purdy threw a career-high three touchdown passes, including two to George Kittle for the third time in four games. A touchdown pass to Christian McCaffrey on their opening possession provided a 7-6 lead and nullified the Cardinals’ second-snap touchdown .
Green outjumped Deommodore Lenoir and then juked Gipson for a 77-yard touchdown on the game’s second snap. At least that wasn’t a coverage bust like others this season. Once that was out of the way, the 49ers’ defense resumed its dominant stature that has made it the NFL’s best in total yards allowed .The 49ers finished a close second to the Tennessee Titans for the NFL’s best run defense; the 49ers allowed 1,321 yards to the Titans’ 1,307 yards .
