The San Francisco 49ers dominated the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday, winning 35-16 to improve to 4-0 on the season, remaining one of two undefeated teams in the NFL alongside the Philadelphia Eagles.

In the win, the 49ers dominated offensively, scoring touchdowns on five of their six drives, with the spotlight on Christian McCaffrey with a four-touchdown performance, highlighting his impact on the San Francisco offense.


However, there was one performance that broke records and it came from the quarterback position, as Brock Purdy broke the 49ers single-game completion percentage record against the Cardinals with his 20/21, 283-yard performance.

Purdy's 95.2% completion rate tops Steve Young's 90% completion rate in an 18/20 performance back in 1991.

In addition, Purdy broke another record, recording the highest completion percentage over expected (+28.0%) by a quarterback with at least 20 pass attempts in a game over the last 7+ seasons.


Purdy's lone incompletion came on a throw against pressure to the flat on a 3rd & 24, but, apart from that, the quarterback was flawless, completing passes at all three levels of the field en route to a historically impressive performance.
