The Green Bay Packers rolled through the San Francisco 49ers 38-10 on Sunday, as the Niners were without starting quarterback Brock Purdy.

It was the Josh Jacobs show for the Packers as the star running back picked up 106 rushing yards and three touchdowns on 26 carries. He left briefly due to cramps, but returned to help his team seal the win.

It wasn’t a very memorable night for quarterback Jordan Love, as he only had 163 passing yards and two touchdowns, but it was more than enough with Jacobs playing the way he did.

San Francisco backup Brandon Allen had 199 passing yards, a touchdown and an interception. He fumbled early in the fourth quarter and the Packers scored moments later to put the game out of reach.

After the win, fans had high praise for Jacobs.

A one-man solution for #Packers‘red zone violation.

Think of the #Packers have shown off their two best red zone options in this first half: Josh Jacobs and Tucker Kraft. Both built for tough conditions.

The Packers improved to 8-3 on the year and remained in sixth place in the NFC standings. Winning the division would be ideal for Green Bay, but seems out of reach in the stacked NFC North that the Detroit Lions currently lead.

The 49ers, meanwhile, have fallen to 5-6 on the year and have a mountain to climb to get back into the playoff race. Their postseason hopes aren’t completely gone, but they will need to finish the season strong if they want to have any chance of defending their NFC championship from last season.
