Brock Purdy was finally able to find room to throw the ball to Kittle, but he was slightly off his target. The tight end stretched his arm out to grab the ball, juggled it around and when it looked like he was going to drop it, the TE had it secure.

Despite not putting up too many points on the board, the 49ers overcame the Cowboys 19-12. Dak Prescott and the Dallas quad were vying to go all the way to the end, but their hopes have come to an unfortunate end. On the other hand, 49ers QB Brock Purdy has been anything but irrelevant. The poise he has shown at the helm during the big moments leaves much to be admired.
