SANTA CLARA (AP) — Christian McCaffrey scored for the 12th consecutive game, Brock Purdy threw two touchdown passes, and the San Francisco 49ers achieved their 13th regular-season victory, defeating the New York Giants 30-12 on Thursday. .
The 49ers didn’t look particularly sharp on offense during their first home game of the season. However, they received enough contributions from McCaffrey and receptions from Debo Samuel and George Kittle to start the season 3-0, something they have done only twice in the last quarter century.
The defense took care of the rest against the depleted Giants (1-2), who went into halftime trailing by at least 10 points for the third time in their three games this season.
With the running game hurt by the absence of injured star Saquon Barkley and with an offensive line overwhelmed without left tackle Andrew Thomas and left guard Ben Bredson, the Giants struggled to move the ball and finished with 150 yards.
