San Francisco 49ers Preview
The 49ers were given an opportunity to extend their five-game winning streak against a struggling Cleveland Browns, but that did not pan out. Instead, they were defeated on the road 19-17 and were handed their first defeat of the season.
This was their closest margin in a game by far this year. They also failed to score over 30 points like they have done every game this year, which is likely why they were unable to make an impact in this game.
At present, they are on top in the NFC West and have a championship run on their minds. As mentioned, they are averaging 30.7 points per game and have been flourishing on offense. On defense, they are doing a good job as well, holding opponents to 14.5 points a game.
Quarterback Brock Purdy (10 TD, 1 INT) had his worst game of the season against the Browns and threw his first interception while completing 44.4 percent of his passes. He has accumulated 1,396 yards and has a QBR of 77.0, making him the top-ranked QB in the league.
Minnesota Vikings Preview
The Vikings have won two out of their last three games and have a little momentum on their side. They recently defeated the Chicago Bears 19-13, despite not having any offense on the board in the fourth quarter.
In their only two wins of the season, they have held both the Bears and Carolina Panthers to just 13 points a game. If their defense can remain consistent, they could turn their season around.
They are sitting at the third spot in the NFC North and have been on the other end of close matchups. For example, they are averaging 21.5 points per game and are allowing 22.5. This is a good team, but they have had issues closing out games when it mattered most.
Veteran QB Kirk Cousins (14 TD, 4 INT) is doing a great job at leading the Vikings offensively with 1,679 yards. He also ranks 13th in the league with a QBR of 56.9. However, he has only been victorious against teams that have a combined record of 1-9 this year.
