The 49ers have had an inconsistent start to the season which has not looked good for them. The defense has been struggling with their plays more than the offense. This season they’ve had quite a few players out due to injuries. Some of the players are reported to return soon while other players may stay out for the remainder of the season, according to ESPN. Running back Christian McCaffery, wide receiver Jauan Jennings and wide receiver Deebo Samuel are some of the few players that are returning soon to play for the season. 

Despite some of the 49er players recovering from injuries, the 49ers came back to win in epic fashion in its most recent home game against the Cowboys on Oct. 27. 

The game itself was evenly matched during the first quarter with the 49ers up 3-0, but the Cowboys scored a touchdown and took the lead. By the second quarter, the Cowboys led with 10-points after scoring a field goal. 

The Niners were still down by four until rookie Isaac Guerendo scored a touchdown at the end of the second quarter.

Running back Guerendo is one of the standout rookies on the 49er team who really stepped up his game against the Cowboys. Guerendo’s performance earned him a nomination for the Pepsi Zero Sugar Rookie of the Week award, which many fans commented is well deserved.

With the 49ers ultimately dominating the third quarter, they scored 21 points in the 15 minute period. And they shut down the Cowboys offense at every turn.

The Cowboys started to catch up in the fourth quarter after star receiver Ceedee Lamb caught a touchdown pass from quarterback Dak Prescott. By this time, the Cowboys started to put an early scare into 49er hearts days before halloween.

The Niners scored a field goal which helped them get from 27 to 30, which put them 13 points ahead of the Cowboys. But this score was tested when Lamb caught another touchdown on the next drive. 

The fourth quarter was on shaky ground for the Niners when the Cowboys cut in close with their touchdown. The Cowboys were only a few points behind the Niners after they scored a few more additional touchdowns and field goals. 

The 49ers won with seconds left on the clock, leaving them with a final score of 30-24. 

Some fans feel that this game was too close to being a loss, though many of the fans are happy with this comeback for the Niners. 

Butch Sana Ramirez, a top fan, commented on a post by the 49ers’ Facebook page.

“This year’s Rookies are good! Puni, Pearsal, Guerendo, Cowing, Mustapha, Green. Go Niners!” Ramirez said.

Te Villarreal, another 49er fan, commented on the same post by the 49ers’ Facebook page.

“Yes, we won… but to be honest it should NEVER BE THAT CLOSE!!” 

This game was a big improvement for the Niners season despite the scores being a close call. The Niners are now back on track though still missing several key players due to their recent injuries.
