A strong response in Week 9
The San Francisco 49ers improved to 7-1 with a 38-17 win over the Las Vegas Raiders at Levi's Stadium, rebounding from their lone loss with a 21-point victory. San Francisco has scored 235 points and allowed 156 through eight games, building a plus-79 differential. The Raiders result was its widest winning margin among its four most recent games.
Recent form favors San Francisco
The 49ers won 32-29 at Seattle in Week 5 and beat Washington 23-17 in Week 6 before falling 29-20 at Atlanta in Week 7. They followed that defeat by scoring 38 against Las Vegas, their highest total across those four games. That stretch includes two wins decided by six points or fewer and a more comfortable finish against the Raiders.
Purdy and McCaffrey set the fantasy pace
Brock Purdy leads San Francisco's season fantasy totals with 169.3 points, narrowly ahead of Christian McCaffrey's 166.7. George Kittle follows with 114.3 PPR points, ahead of Mike Evans at 87.0 and Deebo Samuel Sr. at 60.4. Purdy and McCaffrey also led the team's Week 9 fantasy output with 25.3 and 22.7 points, respectively. Jordan Watkins contributed 18.6 PPR points, the San Francisco defense added 12.0, and Kittle finished with 9.8. Watkins' Week 9 production stands out, but Purdy and McCaffrey remain the team's leading fantasy performers over the season.
Dallas is next
San Francisco visits the Dallas Cowboys at AT&T Stadium in Week 10. Kickoff is scheduled for Sunday, Nov. 15, at 4:25 p.m. ET.
