The 49ers’ defense will encounter an injury-ravaged Browns’ offense in Cleveland, while Brock Purdy and Christian McCaffrey look to extend impressive streaks for the undefeated Niners.
Quarterback Johnny Manziel #2 of the Cleveland Browns scrambles while under pressure from defensive end Arik Armstead #91 of the San Francisco 49ers during the first half at FirstEnergy Stadium on December 13, 2015 in Cleveland, Ohio. CLEVELAND – The 49ers’ quest for six wins, on a potential path to a sixth Lombardi Trophy, comes Sunday in a rare visit to the Browns’ lakefront home.
The 49ers are 10-point favorites, but their egos are checked. Afforded a “Victory Monday” off, the 49ers locker room vibe wasn’t abnormal once practices resumed Wednesday, and, in fact, it was a subdued setting after Thursday’s practice. “I feel like we still have left stuff out there, where we can be our best and still reach our full potential,”Friday’s flight brought them to Cleveland, where they’re making their first appearance since 2015.
Walker did face the 49ers last October, replacing an injured Baker Mayfield and completing 5-of-6 passes but getting sacked by Tashaun Gipson and Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles in that 37-15 road win by the 49ers. Walker then went 2-3 as the Panthers before getting replaced by Sam Darnold, who’s now Purdy’s backup. Also on that Carolina team last year: Steve Wilks, who’s now the coordinator of a 49ers’ defense yielding the NFL’s fewest points and third-fewest yards .
Although Garrett typically opposes the left tackle, the 49ers’ entire line is on alert, including right tackle Colton McKivitz, who’s come on strong after yielding three sacks in the opener to T.J. Watt. San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy throws a pass against the Dallas Cowboys in the first quarter of their NFL game at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, Calif., on Sunday, Oct. 8, 2023. None of Purdy’s past 235 passes have been picked off, and the Browns only have one interception all season. Which side is due to snap out of it?
