The San Francisco 49ers offense picked up where they left off last week as the first drive included a drop and a penalty. The Niners had a sack-fumble and a muffed punt in the first quarter. That spotted the Cowboys 14 points, not even halfway through first. It felt like it would be that type of game.
When San Francisco didn’t turn the ball over, they moved the ball. Weird, isn’t it? Raheem Mostert felt like he was close to breaking one of his touches on a few occasions. The running game was rolling, as Mostert and Jeff Wilson Jr. combined for 17 carries to rush for 83 yards early on. The play-action passing game was there, and Nick Mullens even made a few plays with his legs. The offense punched it in on a shovel pass to Brandon Aiyuk to make the score 17-14.
