What a night for the San Francisco 49ers. A first-half that was plagued by drops, penalties, and injuries. The first three offensive possessions went: punt-punt-interception, while the Dallas Cowboys drove the field for two field goals on their first two possessions. Nick Mullens threw an early interception, but I thought he played well overall. Mullens played the first half and delivered some impressive throws. A few drops hurt his stats, but he finished 11-17 for 105 yards with a touchdown and an interception. Mullens also didn’t get sacked, which was impressive considering the offensive line.
