Moreover, it marked the return of Brock Purdy from injury.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">With Mac Jones performing well in his absence, all eyes were on Purdy to hit the ground running, which he did. The 49ers quarterback completed 19 of 26 pass attempts for 200 passing yards and three touchdowns. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Purdy\u2019s return looked far different from the way he came back from injury for the September 28 game against the Jacksonville Jaguars. After the win over the Cardinals, Christian McCaffrey spoke with reporters and shared his thoughts on Purdy\u2019s performance. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u201cHe was vintage, Brock,\u201d McCaffrey said (h\/t <\/span>KNBR <span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">). \u201cYeah, and that\u2019s a huge compliment. <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">He was poised, made some great plays, <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">made<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> some huge third-down <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">throws<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">, kept us in the game, <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">was<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> smart <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">the whole game<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u201cTo miss games like that is really hard, and to come back in the middle of the year. I think people just watch and like, Oh, he had a good game, whatever. But to be out that long and to come in and do what he did today is extremely impressive.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">George Kittle Also Talks About Brock Purdy\u2019s Return<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Two of the three touchdown passes that Purdy completed against Arizona were to George Kittle, who also had six receptions and 67 receiving yards. Whether it\u2019s Jones or Purdy, Kittle is beginning to hit his stride at a critical time in the season. The veteran tight end, like McCaffrey, was happy to have the 49ers\u2019 starting quarterback back. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u201cBrock\u2019s presence in the huddle is just so elite,\u201d Kittle said (h\/t <\/span>Nick Wagoner of ESPN <span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">). \u201cHe plays the game with this joy that\u2019s so infectious, and it\u2019s just so much fun to play football with him. \u2026 He was definitely feeling it. I think he\u2019s got the confidence; he\u2019s got his swagger.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">49ers Needed a Bounce Back Win<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">After losing to the Los Angeles Rams in the fashion that they did, San Francisco needed a win against a struggling Cardinals team. Moreover, with Purdy looking like his usual self, it quiets the national football media, at least for this week, over the quarterback situation in the Bay Area.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Moreover, Purdy spoke about his return to the field and what it meant to him to be back for this final stretch of games as the 49ers push for a playoff spot. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u201cIt\u2019s my first time missing that much time in a season, and for me, it was new,\u201d Purdy said (h\/t <\/span>Nick Wagoner of ESPN <span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">). \u201cHow do I handle it? \u2026 It was frustrating. I had to learn how to deal with it and mentally just take it one day at a time, one week at a time, and trust that there\u2019s a process to this. \u2026 But overall, it felt good\u2026 I feel great now.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">San Francisco will now turn the page for Week 12, and they will be facing another team that\u2019s in the middle of a division fight of their own, the Carolina Panthers, on November 24 at Levi\u2019s Stadium.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Eduardo Razo Eduardo Razo is a sports journalist covering the NFL for Heavy.com.
