The San Francisco 49ers snapped their three-game losing streak on Sunday against the Jaguars in Jacksonville.
Their embattled defense dominated the NFL’s hottest team, Brock Purdy directed an explosive-play offense, and the 49ers prevailed 34-3. The 49ers welcomed Trent Williams and Deebo Samuel back to the lineup today.
“Losing four straight, a lot of people would have wanted to turn the panic lights on, or we could have our proverbial back against the wall,” left tackle Trent Wiliams said. “Winning on the road against a team that’s been rolling … it’s definitely what we needed.”
Quarterback Brock Purdy did more than his part, throwing three touchdown passes among his 296 yards, and he went without a turnover for the first time in four games.
The Jaguars (6-3) had won an NFL-best five in a row (and 11-of-13 regular-season games dating to last season) before getting completely overwhelmed and committing four turnovers.
Next up is a home game Sunday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers before the 49ers play Seattle on Thanksgiving night, then at Philadelphia the following Sunday before a Dec. 10 rematch with the Seahawks at Levi’s Stadium.
