Mac Jones dropped the fiery Kyle Shanahan quote that changed everything

No Brock Purdy, Nick Bosa, George Kittle, Ricky Pearsall and Jauan Jennings, no problem.

What's left of the San Francisco 49ers marched into SoFi Stadium and stole a massive road victory over their NFC West rivals, the Los Angeles Rams. It was a gritty performance from an injury-depleted club on a short week with no business prevailing, though the result wasn't an accident.

49ers backup quarterback Mac Jones stepped up for the previously-mentioned Purdy and guided the team to a thrilling overtime Thursday Night Football victory in Los Angeles. His efforts garnered a postgame interview, though he credited head coach Kyle Shanahan's motivating San Francisco with a powerful pre-game message as a swing factor.
