There was great individual feats where he makes plays where him, [Patrick] Mahomes, [Aaron] Rodgers, Deshaun Watson, Russell Wilson, they’re the only ones that can make those plays in football. That’s it. Then there was great moments of being surgical, making the right decisions, reading the defense the right way. It had it all from that aspect. Then of course, Buffalo is in the thick of things in the AFC and the importance of that game. All of it was amazing.”‘

What went right, What went wrong: Bills at 49ers
‘Levi Wallace continues to get picked on, no matter the opponent. The 49 yard pass to Brandon Aiyuk was against Wallace and it didn’t even seem like Aiyuk needed to use an “A” move to get past him. It wasn’t the undrafted free agent’s worst game. He recognized a play action pass well on the first snap of the second half and also shut down a fade TD try in the fourth quarter. However, he never has the consistent 60 minutes to make you confident he’s the best choice as the second corner. I’m still on Team Dane Jackson, but I’d go with Josh Norman next week over Wallace if it were up to me.’
