Injuries to Nick Bosa, Emmanuel Moseley, Robbie Gould and Jimmie Ward didn’t stop the 49ers from winning but it did reignite concerns about playing on artificial turf, which awaits them next …
Kicker Robbie Gould’s shoulder seemed to take the brunt of midfield collisions on back-to-back punt returns, but his left knee endured such a hard hit that he got ruled out in the third quarter. Gould’s knee was pretty swollen after the game and he’ll also require an MRI on Monday at The Greenbrier, where, two years ago, a truck carrying an MRI machine broke down and promoted the wounded 49ers to get exams at a hospital.
That he got the 30-yard pass from Garoppolo was surprising for a couple reasons. One, Coleman said they practiced that play call all week, and Garoppolo never threw his way, though the quarterback vowed he would. Sunday, Coleman noted a Panthers defensive back, “so Garoppolo) wasn’t supposed to throw it. But he definitely trusts me.”
Said Garoppolo: “There were some drives where we just killed ourselves. Simple things we can fix. But today was a good day. We were rolling pretty good.” Shanahan commended Garoppolo for “some big plays, some big throws” before adding how it was “huge” to avoid turnovers.Kittle, celebrating his 29th birthday, got immediate attention and made a 5-yard catch on the game’s first snap. It was not a birthday surprise. “Kyle gives us the first 20 plays the night before every game.
Samuel didn’t outright agree that Jennings could channel his “wide back” job as a receiving/running threat, and Samuel said he teased Jennings about heading for the sideline on his 32-yard catch rather than staying vertical up the field.Jimmie Ward’s season debut was short-lived as he broke his left hand on the defense’s first snap.
The Panthers lost for the 11th time in 12 games, and they played without their leading tackler and their starting safeties.It became a one-score game in the third quarter when the 49ers yielded a 19-yard, fourth-down touchdown run by Christian McCaffrey, a play in which safety Talanoa Hufanga blamed himself and counted as one of his four missed tackles.
