Game Notes
- Cleveland defensive end MYLES GARRETT ranks second in the NFL with 80 sacks since entering the league as the No. 1 overall selection in the 2017 draft. In the Browns' last game, he recorded his 80th sack in his 88th career game, tied with T.J. WATT (88 games) as the second-fastest player to reach 80 career sacks since 1982, when the individual sack became an official statistic. Only Pro Football Hall of Famer REGGIE WHITE (71 games) reached the mark in fewer NFL games.
- This week, Garrett lines up opposite San Francisco left tackle TRENT WILLIAMS, a fixture on the last 10 NFL Pro Bowl rosters and a first-team All-Pro selection each of the past two years.
- Cleveland's defense has not allowed a point on its opponents' initial drives at the beginning of all four games. The 49ers, meanwhile, have scored a touchdown in all five games on their first possessions.
- San Francisco has won 15 consecutive regular-season games since Week 8 of the 2022 season, having scored at least 30 points in each of its past eight wins. The 49ers are the fifth team in NFL history to score 30 in eight consecutive regular-season games, joining the 1999-2000 ST. LOUIS RAMS (14 consecutive games), 2010-11 NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS (13), 2012-13 DENVER BRONCOS (11) and 2006-07 NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS (nine).
- Quarterback BROCK PURDY (10-0 career as a starter) is expected to make his 11th regular-season start on Sunday. Among quarterbacks to launch their careers since the 1970 merger, Purdy is only the third to win each of his first 10 starts, joining BEN ROETHLISBERGER (15 consecutive wins to begin career) and MIKE TOMCZAK (10).
- In his first 10 starts, Purdy has completed 183 of 260 pass attempts (70.4 percent) for 2,369 yards and 20 touchdowns, with two interceptions. His 121.1 passer rating is the highest in the NFL history for a quarterback over his first 10 starts, while his completion percentage ranks second behind CHAD PENNINGTON (70.8 percent).
- Dating back to Week 13 of the 2022 season and including the postseason, San Francisco running back CHRISTIAN MCCAFFREY has recorded at least one scrimmage touchdown in 14 consecutive games. He is the fifth player in NFL history to register a touchdown in 14 straight games, including the postseason, joining Pro Football Hall of Famers LENNY MOORE (17 consecutive games from 1963-64), JOHN RIGGINS (15, 1982-83), O.J. SIMPSON (15, 1974-75) and EMMITT SMITH (14, 1995).
