Quick Takeaways
Nick Bosa's game-leading 93.0 overall grade was a carer-high. While he didn't reach quarterback Matthew Stafford in the game, the defensive end earned a pass-rush grade of 92.1, also a career-high. Bosa finished the game with five total pressures, three quarterback hits, and two hurries, boasting a team-high win percentage of 31.9.
Tight end George Kittle earned the game's next-highest overall grade thanks partly to the second-best run-blocking grade of 86.0. He was bested only by wide receiver Jauan Jennings (88.6). Kittle finished the game with three catches for 30 yards on his three targets.
Tackle Trent Williams' overall grade of 83.4 was his best since Week 13 last season (83.7). The offensive lineman didn't allow a single pressure in 30 pass blocks.
Three wide receivers, Jennings, Brandon Aiyuk, and Deebo Samuel, round out the team's offensive top five.
Quarterback Brock Purdy earned an overall grade of 65.1, his lowest regular-season mark since Week 13 of 2022. He finished the game 17-of-25 for 206 yards and a passer rating of 93.1, a new regular-season career-low as a starter.
Running back Christian McCaffrey finished the game with 135 all-purpose yards and a rushing touchdown. It was his eighth consecutive regular-season game with one or more touchdowns, the longest streak of his career. McCaffrey earned a 65.5 overall grade.
Defensive tackle Javon Kinlaw earned the second-highest grade of his career and his highest since Week 12 of 2020 (91.6). Kinlaw racked up four pressures and four hurries. He was also credited with a betted pass.
Linebacker Fred Warner notched 11 tackles and a sack of Stafford, giving him his first sack of the season and 7.5 in his career. His overall grade of 74.7 was the best among all linebackers in the game.
Cornerback Isaiah Oliver registered six tackles and an interception during the game. He made multiple game-impacting stops yet only earned a 64.7 overall grade. Two missed tackles likely hurt Oliver. However, the cornerback's coverage grade of 75.4 led the team. While he allowed five receptions on six targets, it was only for 29 receiving yards.
By comparison, cornerback Deommodore Lenoir, one of the team's lowest-graded defenders in the game, allowed seven receptions for 85 yards on 11 targets. Cornerback Charvarius Ward allowed 10 receptions for 88 yards on 11 targets.
