Brock Purdy was the standout star for San Francisco, throwing for an impressive 503 yards and a staggering seven touchdowns. His connection with De'Zhaun Stribling was particularly lethal, as Stribling racked up 201 receiving yards, making big plays that kept the Cardinals' defense on its heels.

The combination of offensive firepower and defensive resilience proved too much for Arizona, marking a definitive statement from the 49ers this season.
