The 49ers' defense did what they were supposed to as they forced a Viking's three-and-out to start the game. But, unfortunately, Jimmy Garoppolo failed to see the defender from the other side of the field as Harrison Smith intercepted him.
Jimmy Garoppolo has thrown an interception and missed multiple throws high. He’s fortunate not to have thrown another interception as he left an out route inside to George Kittle. Still, he made a couple of nice throws, and that’s helped lead the 49ers into the red zone.
The 49ers are outgaining the Vikings 201 to 166.
