The San Francisco 49ers were unable to dominate the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday afternoon at Levi’s South, but the best teams in the league are able to control games even when they are not at their best. The Rams are clearly better than expected this season, but the Niners also missed several opportunities to blow them out of the game early. Nevertheless, the 49ers came away with a 30-23 victory and will head into Week 3 with a 2-0 record.
Here are position-by-position grades from the victory:
Quarterbacks: C+
