Josh Jacobs' 3 TDs Excite NFL Fans as Jordan Love, Packers Rout 49ers With Purdy Out

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 exited briefly due to cramping but returned to help his team seal the win.

It wasn't a very memorable night for quarterback Jordan Love as he had just 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.

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 unattainable in a stacked NFC North that the Detroit Lions currently lead.

The 49ers, meanwhile dropped to 5-6 on the year and have a mountain to climb to get back in the playoff race. Their postseason hopes aren't completely shot, but they'll need to close out the season strong if they want any chance of defending their NFC championship from last season.
