Despite the 49ers not suffering their first loss until Week 10, quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo hasn’t exactly set the world on fire with his play in 2019.
He has done enough to lead his team to victories in all but one game this season, but the 49ers haven’t had to ask much of their signal-caller thanks to a dominant defense and a highly-potent running game. His first chance to make a statement against a great team in prime time didn’t go as expected, as Garoppolo was just above a 50 percent completion percentage and had his worst QB rating of the year in Monday night’s"At one point, I remember looking up at the TV, and I said, 'I cannot remember Jimmy Garoppolo playing with happy feet like this,'"and Chris Simms of Pro Football Talk.
The 49ers might have fallen in the team’s first true test of 2019, but there are plenty of worthy opponents on the horizon for San Francisco.After hosting the Cardinals in Week 11, San Francisco will take on Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers in amatchup on"Sunday Night Football," followed up by trips to Baltimore and New Orleans in consecutive weeks.
So there will be ample opportunity for Jimmy G and his squad to rebound in front of a prime-time audience.
