Story summary
The San Francisco 49ers secured a crucial victory over the Arizona Cardinals with a final score of 36-30 on September 27 at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara. Despite facing multiple injuries, including those to star players like Mike Evans and Trent Williams, quarterback Brock Purdy threw four touchdown passes, one of which came via a trick play involving a pitch from Evans to Deebo Samuel for an 80-yard score. The 49ers improved their record to 3-0 this season but suffered significant injuries that could impact future games. Meanwhile, the Cardinals' defense continued to struggle, failing to secure any sacks against Purdy and allowing him to throw four touchdowns without interceptions, highlighting issues in defensive execution similar to those seen in previous seasons.
