Purdy Shines as 49ers Dominate Rams in Australia

In Melbourne, the 49ers routed the Rams 27-7 as Brock Purdy outplayed Stafford with 3 touchdown passes and 29 rushing yards. The running game piled up 174 yards behind solid blocking, with McCaffrey and rookie Kaelon Black sharing carries. Receivers Evans, Robinson and Deebo Samuel each produced at least 48 yards and a TD, while the defense limited the Rams’ passing and earned strong play from the secondary. Deebo Samuel also had a notable kickoff return, and Eddy Pineiro missed a long FG. Coaches Raheem Morris and Kyle Shanahan earned praise for a balanced, aggressive game plan; one game isn’t predictive, but this performance was dominant in the matchup.
