I finally was able to rewatch the game, and I went in thinking I’d be disappointed with a lot of the performances, but ultimately that wasn’t the case. Both of the San Francisco 49ers offense and defense didn’t execute, which was the game’s deciding factor. You have to give credit to Arizona and specifically Kyler Murray. The defense had a lot of what the Cardinals were trying to do covered, but Murray’s legs were the defense. You can’t convert two of your 11 third-down attempts or only one of your four red zone attempts on offense.
