Multi commander vs unreal commander6/18/2023 ![]() It’s 21-7 and Washington’s now in a spot they don’t want to be where they have to throw it. He’s up to four TDs his last two games and the 49ers are remembering he can’t really be stopped. – Kittle again! Play action boot and Purdy hits his big tight end sliced through Washington’s defense for another 34-yard TD. Heinicke tried to sneak it and didn’t get there. – Another huge stand by the 49ers’ defense on a fourth-and-1 at Washington’s 34. Turning a negative play into a neutral play, especially on third-and-17, is something Purdy does that Jimmy Garoppolo couldn’t. – Excellent work by Purdy evading a blitz and finding room to throw the ball away. A sixth target and fourth reception for him were negated by a holding penalty on Aaron Banks. That was an excellent throw by Purdy, and good work by the 49ers’ OL to give him time to find his TE for a score. He uncorked a 34-yard TD strike to Kittle on a third-and-6 to open the second half. – McCaffrey’s nose for the first down marker has been so beneficial for this 49ers’ offense. – Two good gains to open the second half on throws to Aiyuk and George Kittle. Washington ties it after the offensive blunder by the 49ers. It looked like Hufanga blew coverage and allowed an easy score. He beat the left tackle to the corner and got to Heinicke so quick that he didn’t even have to go to the ground with him. The bad luck in this game is brutal for San Francisco. – Now a 49ers would-be interception gets dropped and Dotson catches it. Just abysmal work from the typically reliable Jennings. Purdy throws an interception on a ball that Jauan Jennings mishandled. Washington was at midfield so their punt with 3:03 left should give the 49ers a chance to close the half with points, then get the ball to start the second half. Warner had good coverage down the field to force a throwaway. – Good work on third-and-11 to get a stop. The Commanders are picking on the 49ers’ second-year CB. The two penalties wiped out a big gain for Washington after Dotson beat Lenoir. This one is negated by an offensive hold on the same play. They needed a big offensive play in the worst way. That was excellent work with Christian McCaffrey leading the way as a blocker. Ray-Ray McCloud rips off a 71-yard touchdown run on a second-and-10 jet sweep. – Two of Purdy’s last three throws have gotten tipped at the line and nearly intercepted. ![]() San Francisco’s front seven was excellent there. They got to first-and-goal and tried four runs. Goal line stand for the 49ers and Washington did nothing creative. Heinicke found Dotson wide open after scrambling. He plays at a million MPH at all times and it leads him to do things like over run the QB in the pocket. Talanoa Hufanga’s next development step will be gearing down when necessary. – Washington’s offense started rolling late in the first quarter. – Now a sack for Willis, but it’s negated by a holding call on Charvarius Ward.Įnd of first quarter: 49ers 0, Commanders 0 He blew up a run play on first down, then read a read option that QB Taylor Heinicke kept for a loss of three. – Two really nice plays in a row by Jordan Willis. Montez Sweat was a free rusher off the edge and Daron Payne won his rep in the middle to fly in for an easy sack. It’s been runs and a couple of deep throws for their two offensive series, both of which have gone three-and-out. – Washington hasn’t even tried throwing anything intermediate. That was an interesting play call in that spot. Juszczyk pitched it late and the 49ers came up short. – Fourth-and-1 at the Commanders’ 15 and the 49ers try some trickery with an option run to Kyle Juszczyk with Christian McCaffrey alongside him. ![]() He plowed up the middle for six, and then went for three on his next attempt. – A Tyrion Davis-Price sighting! He was the first RB off the bench with Mason hurt. – It’s still hard to cover George Kittle, FYI. Purdy turned and had a defender in his face, but he dropped his arm slot and completed a side-arm throw to Brandon Aiyuk for nine yards. The 49ers ran a play action and Washington brought a blitz. – Sick throw by Brock Purdy on the first play. That was on a third down and the Commanders punted to begin the game. ![]() Deommodore Lenoir overran Commanders WR Jahan Dotson on a deep shot, but Dotson dropped it while trying to make an adjustment to the throw. The 49ers dodged a bullet on their opening defensive drive. He was questionable to play this week because of a hamstring injury. – Jordan Mason was slow to get up on kickoff coverage.
