What you need to know about the 49ers
After a string of six wins, San Francisco’s good fortune finally ran out last Monday as the Niners fell 33-19 to the Ravens. Christian McCaffrey put forth a strong effort for the losing side as he rushed for 103 yards and a touchdown on only 14 carries. He hasn’t dropped below 100 rushing yards for three straight games. Tight end George Kittle also racked up 126 receiving yards.
Quarterback Brock Purdy had one of his worst games as a pro against Baltimore, but is still in the thick of the 2023 MVP race. Purdy went 18 of 32 for 255 yards, zero touchdowns and four interceptions before being sidelined with a neck stinger. For the season, Purdy has completed 68.8% of his passes for 4,050 yards, 29 touchdowns and 11 interceptions. He has added 140 yards and two TDs on the ground. See which team to pick here.
What you need to know about the Commanders
Meanwhile, Washington is coming off its sixth straight loss. The Commanders fell just short of the Jets by a score of 30-28 last week. Washington almost overcame a 20 point deficit in the loss, but fell behind for good on a 54-yard field goal from Greg Zuerlein with five seconds remaining.
After their sixth straight loss, the Commanders have opted to bench Sam Howell, and named Jacoby Brissett the team’s starting quarterback for the remainder of the regular season. Brissett, however, was a late addition to the injury report with a hamstring injury, so it is unclear who will be starting in this one. See which team to pick here.
