“Your plan is crazy,” Purdy told Flores on the field.
Flores’ defense not only limited Purdy and the 49ers’ high-powered offense to just 17 points, but also forced two turnovers from the star quarterback (one interception, one fumble) while recording six sacks.
Purdy and the The 49ers offense struggled for most of the game, and it’s clear Flores’ scheme played a big role in San Francisco’s first loss of the season. And the 49ers acknowledge that.
Game recognizes game.
