49ers Grades For Jimmy Garoppolo, Raheem Mostert, Deebo Samuel, Kwon Alexander vs. Bengals In Week 2
712San Francisco 49ers Grades from their 41-17 win over the Cincinnati Bengals includes all three phases of the game, as well as player grades for Jimmy Garoppolo, Raheem Mostert, Deebo Samuel, Kwon Alexander & K’Waun Williams. Jimmy Garoppolo looked solid as he threw for 297 yards and 3 touchdowns. He looked much more comfortable than he did last week & the 49ers won big. The 49ers’ WR corps also looked a lot better than last week. The most notable WR was 1st round pick Deebo Samuel, who hauled in 5 catches for 87 yards & his first-ever NFL regular season touchdown. Marquise Goodwin also contributed with 3 catches for 77 yards and a touchdown of his own.
The biggest storyline from the 49ers’ week 2 win has to be the Niners rushing attack, which looked great without 2 of their top 3 running backs. Matt Breida had 12 carries for 121 yards, but the player who surprised a lot of people is Raheem Mostert. He had 13 rushes for 83 yards while adding 3 catches for 68 yards and a TD in the air.
On the defensive side of things, the 49ers’ defense looked solid, once again. Andy Dalton threw for 311 yards and 2 TDs, but he was sacked 4 times & picked off once by Kwon Alexander, who was all over the place. He registered 7 tackles, 3 pass deflections & an INT on the day. One 49er who didn’t look all that great is K’Waun Williams. He is struggling in pass coverage & was burnt by John Ross on a seam route.
On special teams, Robbie Gould made 2 of 3 field goals. However, it was penalties & injuries that became costly for the 49ers vs. Bengals. The 49ers lost LT Joe Staley to a broken fibula & he is expected to miss 6-8 weeks. He is not expected to be placed on the IR. The 49ers will need to be more consistent getting called for flags. They were called for 9 penalties worth 75 yards, which is not a good sign. Luckily, it didn’t mean much in this one as the 49ers won big 41-17.
