In Week 6, at Cleveland Browns Stadium in Cleveland, OH, the San Francisco 49ers‘ potent offense encountered significant struggles during the first half. This was primarily attributable to the formidable performance of DE Myles Garrett and his team, and the loss of left tackle Trent Williams, who was tasked with blocking Myles Garrett.

As a result, the 49ers’ first-half performance yielded disappointing statistics, with only 10 points scored, marking their lowest output of the season. And, of course, tough break for San Francisco fans – The 49ers lost their first game this season, 19-17 to the Browns in Cleveland on Sunday.

Myles Garrett & Co. silence 49ers’ roaring

Cleveland showcased their resolute defense, and the 49ers were not without their share of errors, such as Brandon Aiyuk’s dropped pass and Brock Purdy’s missed throw. These mishaps transpired in a highly intense game on Sunday.

David Lombardi, an insider for the Red and Gold 49ers, reported that the 49ers managed to score just 10 points in the first half, marking their lowest first-half output of the season. “Cleveland’s defense has lived up to its reputation so far.”

The 49ers faced significant challenges beyond their initial drive, and Lombardi wrote: “They [49ers] haven’t helped their cause with some self-inflicted errors,” including the Aiyuk drop and Purdy’s overthrown pass to Christian McCaffrey.

Following the first half, the undefeated 49ers (5-0) found themselves facing a formidable challenge from the Browns (2-2). The two teams were locked in a closely contested battle on the scoreboard.

The Browns upset the undefeated 49ers

Since the 49ers struggled against the Browns’ tough defense, Cleveland’s offense stepped up to secure the victory. The 49ers marched 84 yards in 5 plays, aided by the Browns’ penalties. Christian McCaffrey scored a touchdown with Purdy’s pass, extending his scoring streak to 15 games, making it 7-0 in favor of the 49ers. Trent Williams returned in the second quarter. Purdy had an opportunity with a penalty-free play but couldn’t find McCaffrey open. Purdy struggled in the rain, missed Kittle, and fumbled on the next snap. Tough times for our QB.
