Broncos, Wilson beat Niners, Garoppolo 11-10 in prime time

Denver – 9 three-and-outs. No touchdown pass. A pass of just 126 yards. It was his one of the ugliest games of Russell Wilson’s storied career.

To him it was beautiful.

After the Broncos’ 11-10 victory over the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday night, Wilson said, “We’re still learning about each other as a whole new system.” not.

“But just watching our defense fight, fight, fight… everybody believed in each other. That’s what football is all about.”

The Broncos trailed a chaotic AFC West, 2-1, after Melvin Gordon compensated for two fumbles on a second-half 1-yard touchdown run and recovered a Jeff Wilson Jr. fumble with 1:05 remaining. Did. fought and won.

Denver’s defense gave just 36 points in three games, but sacked Jimmy Garoppolo four times and forced three turnovers to put the 49ers ahead 1-2.

Russell Wilson went 17-4 against San Francisco and 9-2 against Kyle Shanahan.

The Broncos’ only sustained drive was a 12-play, 80-yard player, which included a 12-yard scramble by Wilson and a 19-yard dart to Courtland Sutton at the San Francisco 5.

“I really had to move my foot in the fourth quarter,” Wilson said.

After Gordon scored with 4:10 remaining, Wilson’s two-point pass hit and the Broncos clung to a one-point lead.

Garoppolo was the first starter for an injured Trey Lance who broke his ankle in Week 2 and forced the 49ers to midfield, but his pass to Deebo Samuel was tipped by Jackson, and linebacker Jonas blew up at the Denver 42. Intercepted by Griffith. minute warning.

The Broncos were three-and-out again, with 1:42 remaining and the Niners got the ball back at 15 after Ray-Ray MacLeod recovered a muff punt.

Bradley Chubb sacked Garoppolo to lead the San Francisco 3 by 12 yards. Then Jeff Wilson pulled a pass and spat out the football on a PJ Rock hit. Jackson scooped up a loose ball in the 49ers’ 24th with 65 seconds left.

The only other game in NFL history to finish 11-10 was on November 16, 2008, when the Steelers defeated the Chargers.

Before Gordon’s scoring, Garoppolo’s 3-yard strike to Brandon Ayuk in the first quarter stood as the only touchdown of the night.

Garoppolo and the 49ers could have never been happier for safety. Because he was throwing a pass that Chubb picked on his 3, coming out from behind his zone in the end. 7-3 deficit.

But it was safe and the 49ers clung to a 7-5 lead in the third quarter.

Broncos coach Nathaniel Hackett said, “I wish he hadn’t stepped into that thing.”

Garoppolo isn’t the only NFL quarterback to lose track of where he was on the field and step into the back of the end zone.it happened infamously Dan Orlowski Playing for the Detroit Lions on October 12, 2008. Orlovski was Minnesota defensive He’s End Jared He was trying to get away from Allen, but he went out of bounds multiple times until the play stopped.

Shortly after Garoppolo’s blunder, Orlovsky posted on his Twitter account:

“It was a tough situation that I put him in,” Shanahan said of his quarterback. I may have ditched it, but it was a tough situation.”

San Francisco star left tackle Trent Williams injured his ankle while playing and was replaced for the night by Jaron Moore.

“Trent is a warrior. Garoppolo said, ‘It’s always hard to lose a player like him.’

San Francisco was poised to trade Garoppolo this spring, but he required shoulder surgery in March, dampening potential interest early in the offseason.

By the time Garoppolo was healthy, he had no first job. As such, he chose to cut his salary and stay in San Francisco after a nasty training camp, where he threw alone in the sidefield and missed meetings. The Niners prepared for the season.

That disconnect came on Sunday night, when the Niners were only able to convert one-third out of ten.

“Today was terrible. I have to get on the same page as them.

He also complains of pain in his right arm.

“Oh yeah, my arms are feeling it now,” Garoppolo said. You have to get organized and roll.”

“It was great to be back with everyone,” said Jewell, who led Denver with nine tackles, including two losses.
