What a Night it Was

Well, the script couldn’t have been written any better than it actually played out. 42-10. The fans were pumped, the Sunday Night prime-time hype machine was set to overdrive, and the 49ers kicked the Cowboys to the curb, stole their lunch money, and feasted on the overrated wreckage that is now the Dallas football team. Jerry Jerk Off was ‘really excited’ to see how the Cowboys would play. Until they played.

Much was written about the Cowboys vaunted defense, how they shut teams down, and had only given up 41 points in 4 games. Well, Purdy and Co. put up 42. Micah Parsons was manhandled all over the field by Kittle and the offense. Vander Esch was a non-factor as the 49ers passed for 256 and ran for 170 (426 total yards) and were never really threatened in this game.

The crowd was loud and into it from the start. There were some Cowboys fans, sure, but not too many and not too loud. The beauty of live football is the atmosphere, the excitement, and the thrill of watching plays drawn up by the coaching staff being executed to perfection. We were sitting in the north end zone and got to see the flea flicker go off as drawn up. When Kittle broke down the sideline, everyone down the sideline screamed “he’s open!!!!” And you watch and think, does Purdy see him? Will he get the ball there? Is it gonna be a TD? All in the blink of an eye.

Purdy of course nailed Kittle for the easy TD and the rout was on. The int by Gipson was the exact same thing. Dak rolled left and I could see Gipson playing deef centerfield. I knew before Dak threw the pass that Gipson was in perfet position to get the INT. And he did.

I could wax poetic about this game for a while, but the tape dpeaks for itself. Deommodore Lenoir had a phenomenal game on defense. He was everywhere. As did Moonman Ward. Warner was his usual badass self. Greenlaw had some bonecrushing hits. Bosa had a strong game.

Offensively, CMC pounded the rock hard and was pounded early and often. I was very happy to see Jordan Mason get some meaningful carries. Purdy was outstanding yet again on his reads. 17/24 – 252 yards, FOUR TDs. He had a couple bad passes early, and had a couple knocked down, but as the game wore on he got better and better.

20 yard pass on 3rd and 4 to Aiyuk negated by a 10 yard penalty? Purdy followed that up with a 27 yard pass to Deebo. And these weren’t cheap dump-offs. These were 20 yards downfield dimes.

    Did they put the fumble created by Warner? He pulled his arm back and punched that ball out like he was a boxer. And it popped out so easy

    Yeah, that was an awesome play. They showed it like 300 times during the break.

    The one thing I don’t like about live football is each commercial break seems like they are 10 minutes long.

    Good for you Chuck always great to be at the game especially crushing the cowgirls!
    Warner was possessed imo what a game a pick a punch out fumble from Pollard and somehow after hitting a Niner player the ball miraculously stayed in bounds and they recovered it!
    Mason I’ve always liked and runs hard,let’s use him more & and I still believe in Mitchell if he can only shake his injuries.CMC can’t always do it all( well obviously he can but needs a breather just stay healthy Niners) oh btw It was stupid of the Cowboys lining up Parsons on the side of Trent Williams a lot he was no factor in the game!

    Kittle did a lot of work on Parsons as well. Fun to watch.

      All 4 of my kids came home from the hospital in a 49er blanket when they were born.
      Now they have kids of their own.
      Play it forward.
      Red & Gold Inheritance is something you put in their souls by being a role model fan 😀
      The apple and the tree theory applies.

    Dedication!!!

    I think this Cleveland game is a bigger test for the Niners. Their defense is for real. We should be able to stop them more than they can stop us tho.

    Yeah, I’ve taken all my kids to games and they all dig it.
