49ers 27, Chiefs 17: Grades

Here’s who stood out during the 49ers 27-17 preseason victory over the Kansas City Chiefs.

THE GOOD

  1. QB Jimmy Garoppolo. Showed he’s ready to start the regular season opener against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Played with confidence and threw no interceptions. Some of Garoppolo’s throws were slightly behind his receivers, but he completed 10 of 15 passes and mostly made good decisions. His only bad decision came near the end of the first half when the 49ers had the ball at the Chiefs’ 19-yard line facing second-and-three. Garoppolo lined up in the shotgun, received the snap, dropped back, stared down Dante Pettis, who was triple covered, and threw the ball to him anyway.
