The San Francisco 49ers overwhelmed the New York Jets in a commanding performance, winning 32-19 in their Week 1 matchup to reaffirm their status as NFC champions. Jordan Mason rose to the occasion in Christian McCaffrey's absence, rushing for a career-high 147 yards and a touchdown, while Jake Moody's flawless six-field goal showcase provided the scoring cushion the 49ers needed. Forced into a strategic rhythm, Brock Purdy directed a methodical and efficient offense that dominated time of possession, holding the ball for nearly 39 minutes.
Despite an admirable effort from Aaron Rodgers, rejoining the league with a tenacious start and forging a noteworthy connection with Allen Lazard for the Jets’ two touchdown passes, the Jets struggled to match the 49ers' relentless momentum. Rodgers, in his first near-full game since tearing his Achilles, managed 167 yards while grappling with the not fully synchronized offensive unit around him. The 49ers' defensive acumen, aided by interception and controlling the ground game, blunted New York's attack, as San Francisco made eight consecutive scoring drives. The Jets' late resurgence, marked by Tyrod Taylor’s brief appearance, provided only a cosmetic alteration to the final score.
