Quarterbacks: A
Before Lance’s unfortunate injury, the offense drove into the red zone on consecutive drives. Garoppolo stepped back in to lead a scoring drive punctuated by a 38-yard TD to Ross Dwelley. “Just like riding a bike” is how Garoppolo described being the starter again. The offense moved with only three drives concluding with punts.
