"The 49ers' turbocharged offense led them to a 48-27 win over the Indianapolis Colts on Monday night, giving them a fifth consecutive victory. Brock Purdy was nearly perfect for the game's first 55 minutes, completing five touchdown passes to four different receivers before a late interception off the hands of Kendrick Bourne. He hit Christian McCaffrey for two scores and found George Kittle, Jauan Jennings and Demarcus Robinson. Purdy finished 25-of-34 for 295 yards."
"His counterpart Philip Rivers started hot as well, but cooled off some after the first quarter. He completed 23 of 35 attempts for 277 yards, two touchdowns and an interception, which came just three plays after Purdy's pick. Dee Winters undercut a pass and returned it 74 yards for a game-sealing score, papering over a shaky performance by the 49ers' defense."
"He did awesome, man. Played really well. Got on him for a couple he missed, but it was pretty close to a perfect game. On the playoffs: Now it's time to position ourselves to try to do something special. On Jauan Jennings: Jauan has been huge. The way he stepped it up last year when BA went down with his ACL and Jauan played as our No. 1 receiver all last year."
