Cardinals at the 49ers
The Cardinals (3-6-1) were given a second chance on Sunday when they faced the 49ers (8-1) once again after losing to them on Halloween. The 49ers lost their first game of the season last week to the Seahawks at home. The Cardinals started the first quarter strong with a field goal and a touchdown pass however kicker Zane Gonzalez missed the field goal attempt. The 49ers were unable to respond and went into the second quarter down by nine. The Cardinals got an early touchdown pass but were unable to stop the strong 49ers defense from scoring a touchdown and a field goal. The Cardinals went into the second half up 16-10.
The 49ers took the lead when Jimmy Garoppolo found tight end Ross Dwelley in the endzone for a five yard touchdown pass. The Cardinals managed to kick a field goal to take back the lead before the fourth quarter. The 49ers got an early touchdown but failed to get a two point conversion taking the lead by a mere four points. The Cardinals then scored their last touchdown before the 49ers got two touchdowns to win the game. The 49ers are now (9-1) and the Cardinals are (3-7-1).
