GLENDALE https://www.49ersfanshop.com/Robbie-Gould-Jersey , Ariz. (AP) —e crowd was chanting “LAR-RY, LAR-RY!”For a few noisy minutes, it was just like the good old days in Glendale.Forget that this was a game between teams with two of the worst records in the NFL, Arizona’s come-from-behind 18-15 victory over San Francisco was reason for celebration, the first win at home for first-year coach Steve Wilks.“It was great,” Larry Fitzgerald said. “Anytime you can beat the 49ers, for me, that’s the biggest win in our division.”Fitzgerald caught eight passes for 102 yards. He was especially effective in the fourth quarter, catching four for 81 yards, including a 13-yard touchdown catch . He also caught a two-point conversion pass after Josh Rosen’s game-winning 9-yard TD pass to fellow rookie Christian Kirk with 34 seconds to play.The Cardinals (2-6) beat the 49ers (1-7) for the eighth time in a row and second time in three weeks.“Defensively, guys are putting their best foot forward and playing as hard as they can,” 49ers cornerback Richard Sherman said. “We’re playing against other NFL guys. We’re playing against a Hall of Fame receiver in Larry and he made some plays down the stretch. We’ve got to find a way to make more plays.”Here are some things to consider from Arizona’s comeback win over San Francisco.SPIKING ITFitzgerald caught four passes for 81 yards in the final quarter, including a 13-yard TD catch. He also caught a two-point conversion pass after the game-winning TD, spiking the ball afterward Reuben Foster Jersey , something he said he’s never done before in his 15 NFL seasons.“Larry normally hands off the ball to the ref,” Arizona safety Antoine Bethea said, “but getting our second win, first at home, everybody’s excited.”Fitzgerald joked that he was extra upset because his oldest son had decided to go to the state fair instead of the game.State Farm Stadium was far from full, but it shook from the “LAR-RY, LAR-RY” chants.Fitzgerald’s 112th career TD catch moved him ahead of Tony Gonzalez into seventh on the NFL career list.LEFTWICH’S IMPACTArizona’s offense didn’t exactly light it up under new offensive coordinator Byron Leftwich, but there were signs about the direction he wants to take the team.Leftwich took over play calling duties following the firing of Mike McCoy last week, in the wake of Arizona’s 45-10 home loss to Denver.“I thought we did a great job,” Wilks said. “Byron had us into a rhythm. As you can see, the operations were great from a standpoint of just getting a play in, being able to get to the line of scrimmage, and ID-ing the defense and linebacker was outstanding.”Rosen said there wasn’t time to make a lot of changes to the offense but cited Leftwich’s demeanor.“I think he has really good timing with a lot of his play calls,” Rosen said. “He’s got really good poise.”49ERS OFFENSESan Francisco entered the game with the No. 2 rushing offense in the NFL but the 49ers had trouble moving it on the ground most of the day.San Francisco had 107 yards rushing Ahkello Witherspoon Color Rush Jersey , averaging just 3.5 yards per attempt.Arizona surprised the 49ers by sticking with a 4-3 base defense most of the time after usually going with a “nickel” scheme all season.“We hadn’t seen any base all year from them,” 49ers quarterback C.J. Beathard said, “it was all nickel going into it, even last game we played them.”ROSEN’S POISERosen was coming off a difficult game against Denver, when he threw three interceptions and fumbled the ball away twice.And he had a difficult first half against San Francisco. He caused a safety when he was called for intentional grounding from the end zone and threw an interception that set up a 49er field goal.But he was poised when his team needed it most in those two late TD drives.“Josh is not fazed by things like getting hit and bad plays,” Fitzgerald said. “His emotions never waver. He doesn’t get high, he doesn’t get low. He always stays even-keeled. That’s a great disposition to have as a quarterback because there are going to be bad plays.”QUICK TURNAROUNDWhile Arizona is off this coming week, the 49ers are headed for a quick turnaround. They will host Oakland on Thursday night.“Season’s not ending,” San Francisco coach Kyle Shanahan said. “We’re not going to sit here and run away. I want guys who are going to come out and fight, and I thought our guys did fight today. We just didn’t do it well enough.” OTA’s are on Monday, and both players will have a fresh start" />Skip to main contentclockmenumore-arrownoyesHorizontal - WhiteNiners Nationa San Francisco 49ers communityLog In or Sign UpLog InSign UpFanpostsFanshotsSectionsLibrary49ersOddsShopAboutMastheadCommunity GuidelinesStubHubMoreAll 322 blogs on Horizontal - WhiteFanposts Fanshots Sections 49ers Salary CapLevi’s Stadium Events49ers Transactions49ers Injury News49ers Press Conferences & Conference CallsFiled under:San Francisco 49ers NewsNick Mullens opens up about upcoming competition at quarterback with C.J.

BeathardPhoto by John McCoy/Getty ImagesMonday kicks off OTA’s for the San Francisco 49ers. Monday will mark the first of 10-day practice period where no live contact is permitted, but 7-on-7 https://www.49ersfanshop.com/C.-J.-Beathard-Jersey , 9-on-7, and 11-on-11 drills are allowed. There will be plenty of players trying to carve out their role on the team in 2019. For Nick Mullens, he will try to maintain the role of a backup quarterback.In 2018, Mullens was thrown into the starting lineup after C.J. Beathard was injured. It’s not often you can be productive on offense when your third-string quarterback is playing a substantial amount of snaps. With Mullens out there, that’s precisely what happened. Mullens threw three touchdowns against the Oakland Raiders and had six incompletions in a 34-3 route during his first start in the NFL. While Mullens finished with a 3-5 record, you won’t get many arguments on who the second-best QB on the 49ers is. Just rewatching some of Mullens throws, he had a couple “wow” throws every game. Those throws weren’t just good for a rookie, but for any quarterback.Mullens still acknowledges and accepts that there will be a battle for the backup quarterback position:Now is important. Proving it during the games is essential as well. Mullens did that. He became the first 49ers quarterback to throw for 220-or-more yards in eight consecutive games since Joe Montana did so in nine straight games from December 9, 1985, to December 7, 1986. He had one game-winning drive and would have had another one if the defense would have been able to hold up against the New York Giants.Beathard might improve as well. Both players should be better with the new weapons around them. Mullens has proven it, and knows it:
